# Railway

An intelligent cloud platform that deploys, scales, and monitors applications from a developer's repo with minimal configuration, targeting frontend and full-stack teams.

**Route:** surfaced by the Web Application and Frontend Hosting Platform lane's de-branded queries → competitor to vercel.com.

**Why it's on the map:** Sells the same deploy-and-manage capability (auto-deploy from repo, scaling, monitoring) to the same developers who would shortlist Vercel for web and AI application hosting.

**Receipts** (verbatim from its page this run):

> Deploy anything without the complexity

> Railway handles the scaling, so you stay focused on the product.

> Logs, metrics, and alerts in one place.
