Overview

What is Dify?

Dify is an open-source platform for building AI applications without writing a framework yourself: visual workflows, agents with tools, retrieval over your own documents (RAG), prompt management and a ready-made chat frontend. It's become the default way teams prototype and ship LLM apps.

The hosted version meters what you build — message credits, team seats, app limits. Self-hosted Dify removes the meters: unlimited apps, unlimited teammates, your own model API keys, and every document you index stays in your own database instead of a vendor's.

On livemy.app you pick the Dify template, click deploy, and the studio is live with SSL in about two minutes. Add a model provider key, and you're building agents on infrastructure you control — at a price that doesn't move with your usage.

Why deploy here

Same app, no meter running

These tools are free and open source. What you normally pay for is someone else's server — and their pricing page.

No message credits

Hosted AI platforms meter messages, apps and seats. Self-hosted Dify builds and serves as much as your server handles — one flat price.

Your documents, your RAG

Knowledge bases you index for retrieval live in your own database — internal docs never leave your server to power someone else's product.

No maintenance rabbit hole

SSL, storage and redeploys are handled for you. New Dify release? One click and you're on it — no server to log into.

How it works

Three steps, about two minutes

01

Pick the Dify template

Choose it from the gallery. Nothing to download, nothing to configure — the template already knows how Dify should run.

02

Click deploy

livemy.app builds it and gives you a live URL with SSL. Storage is attached automatically, so your data survives every restart.

03

Make it yours

Connect a custom domain and redeploy anytime in one click — from the dashboard, or triggered over MCP by the AI tool you already use.

FAQ

Self-hosting Dify, answered

How much does it cost to self-host Dify?
Free to try — the Free plan is $0 and gives you one project on a livemy.site subdomain. Maker is $10/mo and adds a custom domain, 10 GB and a 99.5% uptime SLA; Pro is $25/mo. Daily backups are a $5/mo add-on. No message credits or per-seat fees — you pay model providers for usage directly.
Which model providers does Dify work with?
All the major ones — OpenAI, Anthropic, Google and any OpenAI-compatible endpoint. You add your own API keys in settings, so model spend is between you and the provider, with no platform markup.
Can I share the apps I build?
Yes — every Dify app gets a shareable web app and an API endpoint served from your instance. On Maker and above you can put them on your own domain.
Is self-hosted Dify hard to maintain?
It's a bigger app than most templates — studio, workers and a database — but the template wires it together for you, with storage and free SSL included. Updates are one click of redeploy in the dashboard, or a trigger over MCP from your AI tool.
