Frappe Press alternative for self-service ERPNext instance provisioning?

I’m looking for an alternative to Frappe Press for a SaaS style setup.

The idea is to let users:

  • Try a demo of our application

  • Enter their company name

  • Choose a subdomain

  • Set an admin password

  • Click Create Instance

  • Have a new Frappe site/instance provisioned automatically

Basically, I want the user to be able to initiate and access their own instance without contacting a sales/deployment team.

Is there any open-source project, Frappe app, or recommended architecture that can handle this kind of self-service instance provisioning?

I’d appreciate any suggestions or GitHub projects you know of.

Frappe Cloud (built on press) supports REST API. You can automate the server/bench/site lifecycles completely.

@Yamen_Zakhour Thanks! I’ll look into the Frappe Cloud REST API and see if it can cover the complete self service provisioning flow I’m looking for.

While you are here, please stop posting AI generated generic comments everywhere :heart:

Hi @Support-BizloomERP

From what I have understood Press will be split into three seperate components: -

  1. Pilot - sites, backups, updates, proxy, SSL, database, firewall, dev tools & apps - Pilot Github (replaces bench and merges with Marketplace in Jan 2027)
  2. Atlas - compute, storage, infrastructure & networking - Atlas Github
  3. Central - billings, users, permissions & payments - Central Github

However it is still experimental so proceed with caution

For context please watch Frappeverse 2026 Cloud v2 Youtube
