What Nexovia is and what it runs
What is Nexovia?
Nexovia is a secure application cloud for Indian businesses. You push code or upload a zip, and the platform builds it, checks it for security problems, runs it in its own sandbox on servers in India, and gives it a domain with HTTPS, a database, file storage, single sign-on, a secrets vault and encrypted backups.
What kinds of projects can I host on Nexovia?
Static sites, React and Vite apps, Next.js (server-rendered or static export), Node.js APIs with Express or Fastify, Python apps with FastAPI or Flask, Go services, and any project with its own Dockerfile. Projects exported from Google AI Studio, Lovable, Bolt, v0 and Cursor are supported.
Can Nexovia host an app built with AI tools like Lovable, Bolt or Google AI Studio?
Yes. Upload the exported project or push it to Git. Nexovia recognises the project type, keeps the small server that many AI-built apps need for their API calls, and checks the AI-written code for leaked keys and risky patterns before it goes live.
Is Nexovia a PaaS like Heroku, Vercel or Render?
It plays the same role: you bring code, it runs it. The differences are that the security checks and sandbox are on for everyone, data is stored in India, pricing is in rupees, and the same platform can be installed on your own servers or fully offline.
Does Nexovia provide a database?
Yes. Managed PostgreSQL with nightly encrypted backups and point-in-time recovery, a Redis-compatible cache on request, and file storage with signed upload and download links. Each app gets its own database user.
How long does it take to go live?
Measured on 22 October 2026: a static site went live in 16 seconds, an Express API in 29 seconds, a React and Vite app in 33 seconds, an AI Studio full-stack app in 75 seconds and server-rendered Next.js in under 3 minutes, including all security checks.
Can my team work together with roles and approvals?
Yes. Roles run from viewer to owner. Senior developers can approve releases by junior developers, every release is on record, and one click rolls back to the previous version.
What are Nexovia Private and Nexovia Air-gapped?
The same platform installed on your own servers. Private runs inside your data centre with updates from Nexovia; Air-gapped runs with no internet at all, updated with signed offline packages. Both are for banks, government, defence suppliers, hospitals and manufacturers whose data must not leave their premises.
How your apps are protected
How does Nexovia keep my app secure?
Five checkpoints on every request: Nexovia Shield at the public entrance, isolation on a private network, Nexovia ID for sign-in, Nexovia Sandbox around every app, and a vault and encrypted backups for your data. Every release is also scanned before it goes live.
What does the security check on every release look for?
Leaked keys and passwords in code, risky patterns such as building database queries from user input, files that should never be public, and packages with known critical vulnerabilities. A critical problem with a fix stops the release while the current version keeps serving, and you see the file, line and fix.
Is AI-generated code safe to deploy?
Often not without checks. AI tools frequently put API keys in front-end code, skip access checks and pull vulnerable packages. Nexovia catches the most common of these mistakes on every release; you still need to review your app's logic.
Can one customer's app reach another customer's data?
No. Apps run in separate sandboxes with their own limits, are fenced off the internal network and from each other, and each has its own database user, files and secrets.
Is Nexovia ISO 27001 certified?
Not yet. ISO/IEC 27001 and ISO 9001 certification are planned for 2027. The Trust Centre shows the controls in place today and the dated plan, and we answer security questionnaires on request.
How do I report a security vulnerability?
E-mail security@nexovia.co.in. Our responsible disclosure policy explains scope and response times; we acknowledge reports within three working days.
Residency, DPDP Act and CERT-In
Where is my data stored on Nexovia?
Your apps, databases, files and backups are stored and run in data centres in India. Off-site backup copies are also kept in India.
Does Nexovia help with the DPDP Act, 2023?
Yes, for the hosting side. Data stays in India, each customer's data is kept separate, deletion on request is supported, and processing terms cover the personal data in your apps. You remain responsible for consent and notices inside your own app.
What about the CERT-In six-hour reporting rule?
The platform is monitored around the clock with alerts in under a minute, logs are kept in India, and reportable incidents are reported to CERT-In within six hours.
Do you use customer data to train AI?
No. Your code and data are used only to run your apps.
Can I use Nexovia for a government or PSU project?
Yes. Nexovia Cloud keeps data in India, and the Private and Air-gapped editions run entirely inside your own premises with no foreign dependency at run time.
Plans, trial and billing
How much does Nexovia cost?
Static websites from ₹199 a month; apps from ₹499 a month (Solo), ₹999 (Starter), ₹4,999 (Growth) and from ₹24,999 (Enterprise), plus GST. Yearly billing gives two months free. Private starts at ₹49,999 and Air-gapped at ₹70,000 a month, billed yearly.
Why is Nexovia cheaper than Vercel, Netlify or Render?
Every plan is priced at least 40% below the nearest comparable international plan, converted at ₹95 to the US dollar, and billed in rupees, so there are no currency swings or dollar card charges.
Is there a free trial?
Yes. 14 days, no card needed. Sign up through Blinke Host, the group's brand for small businesses, and choose your plan.
Do I get a GST invoice?
Yes. Plans are priced in rupees with GST shown separately.
Migration questions
How do I move from Vercel, Netlify, Render or Heroku to Nexovia?
The same repository or zip that runs there runs on Nexovia. The real work is copying the database and changing the DNS record for your domain. Early access customers get help with both, and design partners get the whole move done for them.
Can I keep using GitHub?
Yes. Push your code to your Nexovia repository, upload a zip, or keep GitHub as your main repository and push releases to Nexovia.
Can I use my own domain?
Yes. Add your domain, set the record we show you, and the certificate is issued automatically. A DNS checker tells you exactly what to fix if something is wrong.
What if I want to leave?
Your code is in standard Git, your database is standard PostgreSQL and your files can be downloaded. There is no lock-in.
