From solo developers to hosting providers โ anyone who ships Laravel on a VPS.
Cipi.sh's answer
Cipi was created by Andrea Pollastri, a software developer since 2005 specialising in Laravel, system administration, and cybersecurity โ with experience at companies like Docebo and Musement. He built Cipi out of a practical need: a fast, scriptable way to provision and deploy Laravel applications on his own VPS, without handing control to a SaaS panel. What started as a private tool became an open-source project that grew to over 1,000 GitHub stars and hundreds of active deployments worldwide. Here is a brief account of how it evolved across six years and four major versions.
Cipi.sh's answer
There are many tools for provisioning and managing web servers. This page explains where Cipi sits in that landscape and why you might โ or might not โ choose it over each category. The comparison is focused on seven axes: AI integration (dual MCP server โ per-app and global), native Git deploy (GitHub & GitLab), REST API, CLI-first automation, encryption at rest (Vault), GDPR compliance, and total cost of ownership.
Cipi.sh's answer
Laravel-first open-source CLI with AI and MCP integration โ also static sites and generic PHP apps. One command installs a complete production stack. One command creates an isolated app with its own database, workers, SSL, and zero-downtime deploys. Open Source.
Prepare the fireworks for 2021.
I've been using Cipi since some months and I think that is perfect, simple and fast... And I'm happy about it's Open Source! ;)
