Deploy and Host AEX Run on Railway

AEX Run is an AI-First, self-hosted, single-tenant ERP. Users interact entirely via chat to manage dynamic database schemas, execute business operations, send emails through SMTP, and run workflow automations. Fully customizable per business niche, from retail to manufacturing.

About Hosting AEX Run

AEX Run requires a PostgreSQL database for persistent storage, Redis for background job queues (email sending, workflow execution), and two application services. The API handles authentication, tRPC endpoints, AI agent processing, and SMTP email delivery. The Web frontend is a React SPA served through Caddy, which also reverse proxies API requests over the internal network. On first deploy, database migrations run automatically and the setup wizard guides you through organization, email, and AI provider configuration.

Common Use Cases

• Companies that need a single platform combining CRM, inventory, invoicing, HR, and project management without vendor lock-in
