What We Found

We checked this in April 2026 and here's what we found โ€” Railway's Trial plan gives $5 of free credits to try the platform. After credits are used, you need the Hobby plan ($5/month subscription + usage). Railway charges for CPU, memory, and network usage. It is more like a cloud platform than a static host.
