Steps

Steps marked “human step” are ones only you can do: verapli never signs in, submits, pays or accepts terms for you.

  1. Create or sign in to a Koyeb account

    The person signs up at Koyeb, which creates an organization. verapli never creates the account.

    • Guided by hand
    • Human step: You press submit

    Where: https://app.koyeb.com/auth/signup

  2. Deploy a web service

    Create a web service from a Git repo or container image. The Free Instance runs only in Frankfurt or Washington, D.C., one per organization.

    • Guided by hand
    • Human step: You press submit
    • After: Create or sign in to a Koyeb account
  3. Create an API access token

    In Account settings, API, enter a name and description and click Create API Access Token. It cannot be viewed again; verapli captures it into KOYEB_TOKEN.

    • verapli co-pilot
    • Human step: You press submit
    • After: Create or sign in to a Koyeb account

    verapli captures KOYEB_TOKEN here by plain code: encrypted in your browser, never shown to AI.
