Project

Open source and self-hosting

Run the complete printing control plane yourself without WorkOS, Stripe, a licence server, or phone-home.

Choose a deployment

  • Docker Compose for development and normal small installations.
  • Helm with external PostgreSQL and S3-compatible storage for highly available deployments.
  • Local-only node and loopback API when no server is needed.
  • The same signed node can connect to Piqae Cloud or your HTTPS control plane.

Start with Compose

shell
cd deploy/self-host
cp .env.example .env
# Replace every placeholder.
docker compose --env-file .env up -d

What remains complete

Self-hosted Piqae includes printing, native profiles, durable queues, platform accounts, API keys, webhooks, diagnostics, update policy, local-owner access, and generic OIDC. Hosted convenience—not withheld printing capability—is the commercial product.
