During the pilot, all projects run inside a temporary Heroku tenant. When you are ready to take ownership, verify your account and transfer the project.

​
Verify your account

  1. Click Get verified in the Vibes header.
  2. Authenticate with your Heroku credentials.
  3. Add a payment method if your account doesn’t have one. (Verification is free—charges apply only after transfer when a Basic dyno is provisioned.)
  4. Confirmation unlocks a higher weekly message quota and the ability to transfer apps.

​
Transfer a project

  1. Open the project you want to keep.
  2. Click Transfer to Heroku.
  3. Choose the destination Heroku account (the verified account you authenticated above).
  4. Confirm. Vibes creates a new app in your account with:
    • The generated source code in a git repository.
    • Any provisioned add-ons (for example, Postgres, Key-Value Store).
    • Config vars required by the app.
    • A Basic dyno ($7/month) running the latest build.

​
Continue development

  • Clone the repo locally: 
    heroku git:clone -a YOUR-APP-NAME
  • Use heroku logs --tail to monitor runtime behavior.
  • Scale dynos or attach additional add-ons just like any other Heroku app.

​
Free up project slots

Each Vibes workspace supports three active projects. After transferring, delete the temporary project to free a slot:
  1. In Vibes, open the project menu.
  2. Click the trash icon and confirm deletion.
