Developers today have great tools to quickly launch small projects without thinking of infrastructure (Firebase, Vercel, Heroku). But these tools don't work for teams. Big tech companies that can afford dedicated platform teams tend to build self-service tools for developers on top of AWS / Azure / GCP to launch new services and manage environments. But smaller teams who can't afford it are out of luck. If they have DevOps expertise in the team then they'll write a lot of repetitive Terraform, and if they don't they'll often struggle for weeks learning all the AWS concepts and make lots of mistakes.

We thought this is wrong, and built Digger

Digger manages your cloud account, allows to create apps and microservices from templates (can be custom), generates and runs Terraform, and manages environments. So developers get modern Vercel-like experience while DevOps engineers still retain full control. Starting on AWS with Digger is just as simple as on Heroku, but cheaper and you get a future-proof stack with DevOps best practices.
