Where Modal is strong
- Python-first compute workflow.
- ML jobs, batch work, and serverless GPU functions.
- Developer-friendly abstraction over infrastructure.
Where app.nz is different
app.nz covers:
- cloud coding agents that work on repos and return durable diffs
- static sites, server deploys, private container builds, domains, logs, queues, and secrets
- one OpenAI-compatible gateway for text, image, video, audio, embeddings, search, and 3D
- scale-to-zero GPU hosting for Cog and Comfy workloads
- one credit balance and API surface across the product
app.nz is the product around the compute: coding agents, deploys, model gateway, hosted apps, GPU endpoints, and billing.
Choose Modal when
Choose Modal when your workload is primarily Python functions, ML jobs, or serverless compute pipelines.
Choose app.nz when
app.nz runs the whole loop on one account: an agent edits code, the build deploys, model calls go through the gateway, and GPU endpoints run on demand.
Migration path
Keep specialized Python compute on Modal; move product-facing model endpoints, agents, and app deploys to app.nz.
Bottom line
app.nz hosts the app, routes the models, and runs the GPU or worker infrastructure behind them.
