How Robotron compares
A side-by-side look at editor-native deploy, VPS control, and full-stack hosting versus popular platforms. Use this as a high-level guide — product capabilities change over time.
Robotron free includes one-click deploy from Cursor or VS Code for static sites and front-end apps. Only Robotron PRO unlocks back-end application launch (PHP, Python, Laravel, WordPress, and similar) and server management (your VPS, SSH, provisioning, and multi-site hosting).
