The short answer: Cursor gives you a working codebase, not a running service. To put a Cursor-built internal tool in front of your team, zip the project, upload it to VibeHub, and it deploys to a private URL behind your company's login — no cloud account or infrastructure work.

The gap after "it works on my machine"

Cursor (like Claude Code, Codex, and every serious agentic editor) ends at a folder of code that runs locally. That's exactly right for software engineers shipping to an existing production pipeline. It's a dead end for the more common case: an operations lead, analyst, or founder who just built a working tool and now needs five colleagues to use it.

The usual escape hatches all have problems:

  • A personal Vercel/Netlify account puts a company tool on someone's personal infrastructure, usually publicly reachable, with credentials pasted into a dashboard nobody else can see.
  • "Just run it locally" means the tool dies whenever the laptop sleeps.
  • Handing it to engineering turns a two-hour build into a two-week ticket.

Deploying to VibeHub, step by step

  1. Target a supported stack. VibeHub auto-builds static sites, Next.js apps, and Streamlit apps. In Cursor, that's one instruction: "Make this a Next.js app; read every credential from environment variables."
  2. Zip the project folder. Skip node_modules — dependencies install during VibeHub's build.
  3. Upload in the dashboard. Create an app in your VibeHub workspace and drop the zip. Framework detection, build, and deploy are automatic.
  4. Add secrets. Database URLs and API keys go in the app's settings — encrypted, versioned separately from code, rotatable without redeploying from your machine.
  5. Send your team the link. They sign in with the workspace login and use the tool. The identity gateway in front of every app means there is no unauthenticated path to it.

Day 2 is the actual product

Getting the app live once is a task. Keeping a team tool alive is an ongoing responsibility, and it's what VibeHub is actually for:

  • Versions and rollback — every upload is kept; restore the previous version in one click when an update breaks something.
  • Kill switch — shut an app off instantly for everyone if it misbehaves.
  • Audit log — access and changes are recorded, so "who touched this?" has an answer.
  • Ownership outlives the author — when the builder leaves or changes roles, the app and its secrets stay in the company workspace instead of on a personal account.
  • One registry — as more people at your company build with Cursor, Claude Code, or Lovable, every tool lands in the same place with the same login instead of scattering across personal accounts.

When you don't need this

A public product belongs on a normal hosting platform, and a personal script can stay on your laptop. VibeHub is for the tool that is internal, shared, and connected to anything sensitive — which describes most things people build in Cursor at work.
