koigrid vs Scaleway
Managed, flat-rate, all-in-one — the simpler EU alternative to Scaleway.
Scaleway is a solid European cloud, but it is usage-metered and you assemble and operate the pieces yourself — instances, managed database, object storage, load balancer. koigrid gives you those building blocks managed and pre-wired — apps + Postgres HA + Redis + storage + cron — at one flat rate, EU-hosted and agent-native.
Same setup — what you actually pay
You save ~$19/mo (35%)
For a small production app + an HA Postgres database. Estimate from public pricing; koigrid is flat-rate with egress included. (prices reviewed 2026-07-14)

Frequently asked questions
Is koigrid cheaper than Scaleway?
koigrid is flat-rate with bandwidth included — no per-GB egress or per-request fees. For a comparable setup you usually pay a lot less (see the estimate above).
Can I migrate from Scaleway without lock-in?
Yes. koigrid runs on portable primitives — standard PostgreSQL, S3-compatible storage and containers — so you can move in (or out) whenever you want.
Is my data hosted in the EU?
Yes. koigrid is EU-hosted (on Hetzner) with data sovereignty by default.
Can I run everything from an API or an AI agent?
Yes — koigrid is API-first and agent-native: every action has an API and a scoped token, with llms.txt and OpenAPI so an LLM can operate it end to end.
