Hetzner Cloud for self-hosting: plans and what fits on them

Hetzner Cloud is based in Germany. We have not been able to read its prices programmatically, so no figure on this site is based on Hetzner Cloud. The specifications below are confirmed; the prices are not.

Prices not confirmed

Specs below were read from the Hetzner pricing pages on 2026-09-12. The prices are injected client-side per region and every plan was reported as temporarily unavailable at the time of reading, so no price could be captured. Fill price_usd_month in and flip price_status to verified before these plans are allowed into a published calculation.

Until that is resolved, treat this page as a specification reference and check the vendor for pricing.

That never changes the computed costs, which server is chosen, or the conclusion of this page. The sizing model and every price source are published in full.
