How can a startup serve independent founders for under $50/month?

Using Supabase Pro ($25/month) for database, auth, and storage, plus Vercel Pro ($20/month) for deployment, functions, and CDN. These platforms consolidate capabilities that would require 8+ separate AWS services. OpenMyPro serves independent founders and bootstrapped revenue on this $46/month stack.

What are the cheapest cloud hosting options for startups?

Supabase and Vercel offer the best value for Next.js applications. Both have generous free tiers for validation. Pro plans at $25 and $20 respectively cover most startup needs through significant scale. The combined $45/month is 5-14x cheaper than equivalent AWS infrastructure.

When should a startup upgrade from cheap infrastructure?

Upgrade when you hit specific limits: database size exceeds tier capacity, serverless function execution limits restrict workloads, or traffic patterns require dedicated compute. For most startups, this happens well after achieving product-market fit and revenue, when the cost is easily justified.
