Exclusively for the clientele of Last Place, friends and collaborators. By Gabriel Penman.
Adze runs on my own hardware in Frankfurt — no rented cloud, no middleman. Every site is hand-built, deliberately lightweight, and fast.
Everything is hosted on a machine I own and run myself. It's custom from the ground up — no per-seat fees, no platform renting you back your own work.
Sites are hand-tuned to be small and quick — they compile down to plain static pages, load fast, and stay out of your way.
Everyone should be able to keep a little patch of land on the web — a website that's yours — without paying rent on it forever. So hosting on Adze costs nothing.
Domains are the one thing the web genuinely makes you pay for. Point an existing domain at Adze, or buy one through Adze at cost — no markup.
Whatever you do pay for is charged at cost as a thank-you — unless your site has custom features that need genuine, ongoing upkeep.
