The deployment platform Octopus users wish they'd switched to years ago.
JawsDeploy gives teams reusable deployment flows, environment-aware variables, custom scripts, and release promotion without the legacy GUI tax.
Familiar mental model.
Sharper edges.
If you've used Octopus, Jaws Deploy will feel familiar, minus the per-target tax and legacy UI drag.
Model your real-world infra
Environments, machines, tags. Scoped variables auto-apply per environment, machine, or tag.
machine: web-prod-{01..04}
tags: [iis, dotnet, blue]
env: production
Pipelines, not YAML soup
Compose your pipeline from built-in step templates. Use custom PowerShell or Bash logic where your deployment needs it.
steps:
- fetch-secrets@akv
- deploy-package
- smoke-test
- switch-proxy@iis
Cross-platform by design
Run Jaws Deploy on Windows and Linux, use modern, cross-platform PowerShell Core scripting.
Install-JawsService `
-Name "OrdersAPI" `
-Path $package `
-StartMode Automatic
Observability that catches up to ops
Real-time logs, machine-by-machine status, deployment timelines, and retention.

// JAWS vs OCTOPUS
We were Octopus customers, too.
The pricing made us build this.
A like-for-like comparison on a 20-machine deployment footprint.
"Jaws Deploy streamlined our deployment automation across 30 projects and over 100 servers. Migration from Octopus was straightforward, and the PowerShell Core SDK made integration with TeamCity and GitLab seamless. It's a reliable, efficient solution that just works."
