Deployment Options
Genfeed models deployment and client separately:
- SaaS is the hosted Cloud deployment with the web client.
- Community is the single-tenant self-hosted deployment with the web client.
- Desktop is a local-first Electron client that can work locally or connect to Cloud explicitly.
See Deployment Modes and the public deployment-mode summary for the boundary rules.
Cloud
Cloud is operated by Genfeed and is available at app.genfeed.ai . It can provide managed inference, hosted publishing and analytics, multi-tenant organizations, and team governance. Availability, limits, prices, and support terms are account- and plan-specific; this repository does not define them.
Community
Community is the public Docker distribution for self-hosters. It includes the
web UI, REST API, MCP server, PostgreSQL, and embedded Redis in a single-tenant
configuration. The image excludes ee/ source.
You operate backups, updates, networking, TLS, provider accounts, and data handling. Application records stay on your infrastructure; requests sent to configured external providers follow those providers’ data practices.
Start with the Community quick start.
Desktop
The desktop workspace is a macOS-first Electron client with PGlite-backed local
state and optional Cloud connection. The repository has signed macOS artifact
automation for desktop-v* tags. It does not claim Windows or Linux installers,
and no installer URL is published in these docs unless a tagged release exists.
Mobile and extensions
Mobile, browser-extension, and IDE-extension workspaces are client source surfaces, not additional backend deployment modes. Their current distribution status is listed on Capabilities.
