A curated directory of 12 self-hosted software tools built by indie makers, for running apps on your own server instead of a closed SaaS.
Self-hosted software gives indie makers and small teams control over where their data lives and how their tools run, instead of renting access to a closed SaaS platform, you install and run the app on your own server. This tag on ProductVisit gathers 12 self-hosted apps and open-source tools built by solo founders and small teams, spanning API generation, trading automation, and directory software. Centia.io, for instance, auto-generates REST, GraphQL, and realtime APIs from a PostgreSQL database and lets you launch in the cloud or self-host it entirely, while ByNinja Trading is an open-source Python bot for automated Binance spot trading that you deploy and control yourself. Browsing self-hosted alternatives here means fewer recurring subscriptions, more data ownership, and full control over deployment, a fit for developers, privacy-conscious teams, and anyone wary of vendor lock-in.
Products rotate by relevance and exposure so useful newcomers have a fair chance to be seen.
