Changelog

What we've been shipping. Updated every friday.

Feature

Referral domain and invoice credits

Successful referrals earn domain purchase credits and invoice discounts — Developer trials do not count as conversions.

Improvement

Database password change emails

Rotating a managed database password emails the account owner so unexpected changes are hard to miss.

Feature

Wildcard custom domains

Point a single `*` DNS record at your project and cover every nested subdomain without adding each hostname by hand.

Feature

HTTP databases on public domains

Expose HTTP-protocol managed databases on public `*.db.brimble.app` hostnames from the project UI.

Feature

Managed database users

Create additional database users with readonly or readwrite access so teammates and services do not share the primary password.

Fix

Docker builds include project environment

Dockerfile builds now receive project env files so build-time config (rewrites, public keys, feature flags) resolves correctly.

Improvement

Region capacity checks before deploy

Deploy region pickers warn when a region is tight on capacity, and builds fail clearly instead of hanging when a region is full.

Fix

Correct apex detection for multi-part TLDs

Custom domains on multi-part TLDs like `.co.uk` now detect the real apex instead of treating the wrong label as the root.

Fix

Cancel PR preview builds on close

Closing a pull request now cancels any active preview builds for that PR instead of letting them finish for nothing.

Feature

Managed LibSQL databases

Provision LibSQL as a managed database on Brimble — with workbench access and connection options that fit how your app talks to it.

Improvement

Git connection health checks

Verify GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, and Origin connections before a deploy, and keep builds moving when some runners are down.

Fix

More accurate bill forecasts and bandwidth charges

Forecasted bills no longer mix in unpaid invoices or invent phantom bandwidth overages around cycle resets.

Feature

Cursor Origin git provider

Connect Cursor Origin repositories and deploy from Origin pushes the same way you do with GitHub or GitLab.

Improvement

Spending limits with notify or pause

Monthly spending limits can either notify you or pause compute and block new deploys when you hit the cap.

Feature

Star projects and storage buckets

Star the projects and storage buckets you reach for most so they stay easy to find.

Fix

Fixed AI domain pricing

Corrected marketplace pricing for `.ai` and related TLDs so quotes match what you are charged.

Feature

Multiple Dockerfiles per project

When a repo has more than one Dockerfile, choose which one Brimble should build on create and redeploy.

Fix

Fixed custom-domain TLS after edge restarts

Platform hostnames keep stable certificates across edge restarts, while your custom domains continue on-demand TLS as usual.

Feature

Crypto checkout for domains and LLM tokens

Pay for domain purchases and LLM token top-ups with crypto checkout — no card required for those flows.

Feature

Static site file and zip deploys

Publish a static site by uploading files or a zip — no git repository required, ideal for handoffs and one-off landings.

Improvement

Safer plan upgrades and downgrades

Plan changes keep active personal trials intact when a downgrade is scheduled, and outstanding invoices are handled more accurately.

Feature

Cron jobs with run history

Schedule commands on workers and web services, inspect run history, and force a run when you need it now.

Feature

Start and stop services

Start or stop non-database services from the dashboard without deleting the project.

Feature

Scoped API keys and MCP connect

Create scoped Brimble API keys from account settings and complete MCP OAuth connect without dropping your dashboard session.

Improvement

Scheduled database backups

Set automatic backup schedules for managed databases, then download or restore from the Backups & Restore page.

Feature

Project config file mounts

Manage project Files in the dashboard and mount them into running services at the paths you choose.

Feature

Usage insights and weekly cost emails

Explore detailed usage insights, export a PDF cost report, and get a weekly cost analysis email between invoices.

Feature

PgBouncer connection pooling

Turn on PgBouncer pooling for Postgres-compatible managed databases and connect through a pooled endpoint.

Feature

Custom runtime versions

Pin Node and other supported runtime versions on web-service builds so deploys use the toolchain you expect.

Feature

Database query insights

See query load, top operations, connections, and resource trends for managed databases in one Insights view.

Feature

Optional TLS for managed databases

Enable TLS on supported managed databases and download the certificate material you need from connection details.

Feature

Domain purchase coupons

Apply coupons at domain checkout — including coupons assigned to a specific person by email.

Feature

Project log drains

Forward project logs to HTTPS or S3 destinations, with automatic disable when a drain keeps failing.

Fix

More reliable zero-downtime deploys

Zero-downtime cutover waits until the new allocation is healthy before traffic switches over.

Improvement

More reliable sign-in and signup

Sign-in and signup are more reliable across email, social login, refresh sessions, and magic-link codes.

Feature

Project metric alerts

Define metric-based alert rules on a project and review when they fire — before customers notice the spike.

Feature

In-dashboard database workbench

Run queries and browse schemas for managed databases without leaving the Brimble dashboard.

Feature

Private database mesh networking

Reach managed databases over the private service mesh with internal hostnames — no public exposure required.

Feature

Developer trial in deploy flow

Start a Developer plan trial from the static-site deploy confirmation — unlock domains and analytics before you go live.

Feature

Project Rate Limiting and Edge Caching

Configure rate limits and edge caching rules per project to protect your services and improve performance for repeat visitors.

Feature

In-Dashboard Support Tickets

Submit and track support requests directly from the Brimble dashboard without switching to email or an external tool.

Feature

Storage Bucket Provider Migration

Move an existing storage bucket from one provider to another without re-uploading your files.

Feature

Object Storage

Create S3-compatible storage buckets directly from the dashboard — with CORS, lifecycle rules, access controls, and your choice of storage provider.

Improvement

Dashboard Search and Log Viewer

Dashboard search keeps up as you type, and deployment logs are full-text searchable so you can jump straight to the line that matters.

Feature

Bun Package Manager Support

The build engine now auto-detects Bun alongside npm, yarn, and pnpm — no manual configuration required.

Feature

S3-Compatible Object Storage

Managed object storage with full S3 compatibility, folder management, and configurable access policies.

Feature

Domain expiry reminders

Automated email reminders before your Brimble-purchased domains expire, so you never lose a domain by accident.

Improvement

In-product announcements

Product updates and announcements now surface directly inside the dashboard, so you see what's new without leaving your workflow.

Feature

Sandbox Environment Variables

Inject environment variables into sandbox runtimes for API keys, config, and secrets.

Feature

Sandboxes

Spin up an isolated, ephemeral sandbox to run code, test a build, or evaluate a snippet — with auto-destroy timers, one-shot mode, and outbound network controls.

Feature

Sandbox templates

Spin up a sandbox from a template instead of starting from scratch — public templates cover common stacks, with previews and ready-to-use images.

Improvement

Bulk file upload and faster sandbox provisioning

Drop a folder of files into a sandbox in one go, and sandboxes now provision noticeably faster — especially for templates with pre-warmed images.

Improvement

Dashboard Polish

Notification overflow fixes, project page scaling, domain transfer UI refinements, and a more readable AI debug experience.

Feature

Persistent terminal sessions in sandboxes

Open a terminal into any sandbox from the dashboard — sessions persist across page reloads, with cwd and history streamed back so you don't lose context.

Feature

Sandbox persistence with pause, resume, and snapshots

Sandboxes can now keep state across restarts — pause and resume to save compute, and snapshot a running sandbox to clone it or roll back later.

Feature

Password-protect any deployment

Put any deployment behind a password — perfect for staging environments, internal tools, and pre-launch previews you want to share without making them public.

Feature

Configure CPU and memory directly in the deploy form

Set the CPU and memory your app should run with using sliders in the deploy form — available for both Git-based and Docker deployments.

Feature

Transfer a domain between workspaces

Move a domain from your personal account to a team, or between teams, without buying it again or breaking DNS records — confirmed with step-up 2FA for safety.

Feature

Team-wide 2FA enforcement

Team admins can require every workspace member to enable 2FA — with a non-dismissible setup prompt for members who haven't enrolled yet.

Improvement

Remove your last payment method

You can now remove your last card on file — with a clear warning about what happens next — instead of being locked into keeping a card you no longer use.

Feature

Step-up 2FA for destructive actions

Sensitive actions like deleting a project, removing a teammate, or rotating an API key now prompt for 2FA verification at the moment of action, even if you're already signed in.

Feature

3D Secure payment authentication

Cards that require 3D Secure now work end to end — add-card and checkout flows handle the bank challenge inline and confirm the payment automatically once you authenticate.

Improvement

Tell us why you're cancelling

When you cancel a subscription or disable a project, we now ask why — your answer goes straight to the product team and helps us prioritise what to fix.

Improvement

DNS now runs on CoreDNS with automatic failover

The DNS layer for Brimble-purchased domains now runs on CoreDNS with multi-region failover — name resolution stays fast and available even if a single region has issues.

Improvement

Faster, more accessible dashboard

Dashboard navigation is noticeably snappier, page-load skeletons match the actual layout, and dropdowns are now fully keyboard-accessible.

Feature

Free 15-day trial for managed databases

Spin up a managed database on the free plan and get 15 days to evaluate it — full feature parity, real-time provisioning, with caps tuned for evaluation.

Improvement

New load balancer in Asia

A new edge load balancer in the Asia region brings traffic for Asian users to a nearby POP instead of crossing oceans, cutting round-trip latency for projects with audiences in Asia-Pacific.

Improvement

Richer AI debug suggestions

AI debug suggestions can now produce significantly longer, more detailed responses for complex failures — full code blocks and multi-step fixes fit cleanly without truncation.

Improvement

Better build log viewer

Build logs now show a phase rail, follow new output as it streams, and let you copy a selection or the entire log with one action.

Improvement

Port availability check during setup

The new-project flow now checks whether your chosen port is available before you submit, so port collisions surface immediately instead of as a cryptic build failure.

Improvement

Free plan focused on static deployments

The free plan is now scoped to static-site deployments. Server-side frameworks (Next.js, Nuxt, Remix, etc.) require a paid plan, with a clear upgrade path during project creation.

Feature

AI-assisted debug with auto-fix pull requests

When a deployment fails, the assistant reads your logs and project structure, explains the root cause, and can open a pull request with a proposed fix on GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket.

Improvement

Warning before deploying server-side frameworks as static

If you're about to deploy Next.js, Nuxt, Remix, or another server-side framework as a static site, the dashboard warns you before the deploy starts.

Feature

Public changelog

Brimble now ships its own changelog page — entries grouped by date, with proper markdown rendering for lists, links, and emphasis.

Improvement

Real-time logs for failing builds

Logs from failing deployments now stream into the dashboard live, instead of arriving after the build finishes.

Improvement

Team auto-deploy permissions

Pushes from non-members and viewers no longer trigger auto-deploys on team-owned projects, with a clear notification of who attempted the push.

Improvement

Automatic edge cache purge on deploy

Successful deployments now purge the Cloudflare edge cache automatically across every zone your project routes to, so latest changes are visible immediately.

Feature

Project transfer between users and teams

Move ownership of a project from your personal account to a team — or between teams — without recreating the project or losing its history.

Feature

In-product notifications

Account, billing, and deployment events now appear as notifications in the dashboard, so you don't have to dig through email to know what's happening on your account.

Feature

Account billing breakdown

See exactly what you're paying for this cycle — base plan, metered usage, and credits — with a per-line breakdown and hover tooltips.

Feature

Advanced query filters

Filter and combine conditions with a new query builder, so you can drill into deployments, projects, and logs faster.

Improvement

Faster project lists and quicker deploys

Project listing, search, and pre-deployment steps are noticeably faster, especially for accounts with many projects.

Improvement

Custom application port

Configure the port your app listens on directly from the dashboard, with a sensible default detected per framework.

Feature

Build minutes for personal accounts and teams

Build minutes are now metered separately for personal accounts and teams, with team-aware crediting and a clear cycle reset.

Feature

Pay outstanding invoices directly

Settle a past-due invoice directly from the dashboard, without changing your payment method or waiting for the next retry.

Improvement

Faster builds and dashboard

Builds and dashboard pages are noticeably faster across the board, with tighter health checks and lower CPU usage during deploys.

Improvement

Toggle build cache per project

Enable or disable the build cache on a per-project basis from the project settings.

Feature

Shared secrets across projects

Define a secret once and reference it from any of your projects, instead of pasting the same value into every environment.

Feature

Watch paths for selective rebuilds

Trigger deployments only when specific paths in your repository change, with first-class monorepo support.

Improvement

Better deployment logs

Search across deployment history logs, download logs as files, and see request log trends — with cleaner formatting and configurable retention.

Feature

Deploy from GitLab and Bitbucket

Brimble now supports GitLab and Bitbucket repositories alongside GitHub, with full end-to-end deployments, webhooks, and account connection.

Feature

Sign in with passkeys

Register a passkey and skip passwords entirely. Hardened end to end against replay and phishing.

Feature

Two-factor authentication

Protect your account with a TOTP-based second factor on top of your password, with prompts on sign-in and sensitive actions.

Improvement

Real-time deployment events

Deployment status updates now arrive in the dashboard live, so you see every state change the moment it happens.

Feature

Web analytics for your deployed apps

Brimble's own web analytics — built in-house, included with every project. Traffic, top pages, referrers, geography, and Core Web Vitals, with a one-line tracking snippet and zero third-party dependencies.

Improvement

Faster dashboard load times

Project pages now load measurably faster, with parallel data fetching and a leaner landing page.

Improvement

Past-due subscriptions keep deploying

If a payment fails, your existing deployments keep running and you can still ship updates while you settle the invoice.

Improvement

Dashboard polish

Project details and authentication pages got a visual refresh, and the dashboard now refreshes cached data immediately when you take an action.

Improvement

Faster pre-build

The pre-build phase — repository fetch, dependency resolution, framework detection — is now noticeably quicker on every deploy.

Feature

Managed databases with backups and persistent disks

Spin up a managed database alongside your apps, with daily backups and persistent disk configuration available from project settings.

Improvement

Smoother domain marketplace

Search availability, buy a domain, and attach it to a project in a single linear path — without leaving the dashboard or jumping between tabs.

Feature

Deploy MCP servers

Brimble now hosts Model Context Protocol servers — browse the Smithery registry, deploy with a click, and connect them to your agents.

Improvement

Hosted invoice page

Every invoice now has a hosted page you can open, share with finance, or send to your accountant — no PDF wrangling required.
