I'm a little confused, is this basically a competing service with zeit's already-abstract 'now' deployment service? Or is this completely separate from that now service that doesn't even require a zeit account/plan?

(I work at ZEIT)

We just wanted to make "now" the go to tool for cloud deployments.

We've a backend for "now" and that's the pricing we've mentioned on our page. Just like that, we've providers for AWS, Google Cloud, Azure and etc.

We'll sure make "ZEIT now cloud backend" better everyday. But sometimes, we just wanna deploy to existing clouds. That's what this is about.

If you decide to deploy to AWS, you don't need to pay nothing for ZEIT.

You can also think like, this is we challenging ourself :)

This surprised me too, but it looks separate. You log in directly to GCP or AWS.
