Deploy and Host YapGab on Railway

YapGab is a white-label AI companion platform. Deploy your own instance in one click — PostgreSQL, session secrets, and encryption keys are all provisioned automatically. You only need your YapGab license key to get started.

About Hosting YapGab

YapGab runs as a single Docker container backed by a PostgreSQL database. Railway provisions the database and wires DATABASE_URL automatically. Two secure random secrets (SESSION_SECRET and CONFIG_ENCRYPTION_KEY) are generated on first deploy. After the app starts, an in-app setup wizard guides you through connecting ElevenLabs (voice AI), Stripe (payments), and Resend (email) — no terminal or config file editing required.

Why Deploy YapGab on Railway

Railway handles the infrastructure so you can focus on your product. One-click provisioning, automatic restarts, health checks, and built-in PostgreSQL mean zero DevOps required to run a production AI companion app.
