Frequently asked

How much does it cost to host WriteFreely?
Hosting WriteFreely on Zenith is $5 / month, billed monthly until you cancel.
How long does WriteFreely take to deploy?
Most apps are live on your own subdomain in about two minutes after you deploy.
Do I need to manage a server to run WriteFreely?
No. Zenith runs WriteFreely for you, with no servers to provision or maintain.
Can I use my own domain with WriteFreely?
Yes. Each deployment gets a Zenith subdomain, and you can map your own custom domain to it afterwards.
Can I deploy WriteFreely with Claude or another AI agent?
Yes. Zenith has a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server at https://zenith.hosting/mcp. Add the endpoint from Claude, Cursor or another MCP client, connect your account, and ask the agent to deploy WriteFreely. Each paid deployment still requires your cost approval. Setup is at https://zenith.hosting/connect.
