Tiny but powerful
A self-hosted deployment tool for Windows, licensed per server — not per deployment target. Add machines without adding to the bill.
7 years in the making — meticulously crafted in Stockholm since the first commit on March 5, 2019, and the tool we use to ship fdeploy.com and docs.fdeploy.com.
Released August 21, 2026 · Free Community edition, no sign-up
You need both — Server once, Agent on every machine you deploy to.

What's in the box
Two components. Everything you need to deploy. Nothing you don't.
Why fDeploy
A self-hosted deployment platform built for Windows teams who want power without complexity — and without a monthly cloud bill.
Self-hosted & on-premise
Keep full control of your deployments. fDeploy runs entirely on your own Windows infrastructure — no cloud dependency, no vendor lock-in.
Built-in NuGet repository
Ship packages without a separate feed server. fDeploy Server includes a NuGet repository out of the box for storing and versioning your deployment artifacts.
OpenAPI v3 compliant
Automate everything through a fully documented, standards-compliant REST API. Integrate fDeploy into your CI/CD pipelines with ease.
Certificate management
Manage SSL/TLS certificates directly from fDeploy. Automate certificate binding for your IIS sites and keep your deployments secure without manual steps.
Secure agent communication
fDeploy Agent establishes authenticated, encrypted channels with the Server for remote package delivery, variable substitution, and script execution.
Progressions
Define deployment pipelines with ordered phases — from Development through QC, UAT, and into Production. Releases promote through each phase in sequence for controlled, reliable rollouts.
Reproducible releases
Every release captures a frozen snapshot of project variables and the deployment process at creation time. What you signed off in QC is exactly what ships to Production — even months later.
Configuration transforms
Apply standard .NET XDT transforms during deployment, layered with fDeploy variable substitution. Maintain environment-specific config without bolting scripts onto your build.
Team-based access control
Grant permissions through teams with roles scoped to specific projects or environments. Map Active Directory groups straight to fDeploy teams for hands-off membership sync.
No cloud bill. No surprises.
One price per fDeploy Server instance. Add as many deployment targets and users as you like — the number on your invoice does not move.
Built on open source. We will always ship a free community edition — the complete product, not a crippled one.
A perpetual licence keeps working forever. You own the version you bought. If we stopped trading tomorrow your installation would carry on deploying exactly as it does today — fDeploy is self-hosted, there is no licence server to call home to and no kill switch. Maintenance is optional and only covers new versions.

Frequently asked questions
What do I actually need to install?
Two things. fDeploy Server goes on one machine — it is the control plane, with the dashboard, the REST API and the built-in NuGet repository. fDeploy Agent goes on every Windows machine you want to deploy to, and does the actual work there: variable substitution, IIS configuration and PowerShell execution. Install the Server first, then an Agent per target, then register each Agent with the Server from the dashboard. Agents are unlimited and free on every tier, so install as many as you need.
Can you keep me informed about fDeploy development status?
Absolutely. Send an email to [email protected] with your contact information and we will make sure to keep you posted.
Do you plan to ship a specific feature I need?
While we cannot make any promises at this stage, we would love to hear from you. Which features are crucial for you? We are compiling a list of the most frequently requested features and will do our best to ship them.
Will you offer a free community edition?
fDeploy is built on many open-source libraries. As our way of giving back, we will always ship a free community edition. It is the complete product — unlimited projects, deployment targets and users — free for commercial use in production by organisations under $1M / €900k in annual revenue, and a direct download with no registration.
Which features are not supported?
fDeploy does not support tenants.
