# Meilisearch Cloud platform

> Manage your Meilisearch Cloud infrastructure, monitor performance, control billing, and organize your team from a single platform.

Meilisearch Cloud is the managed hosting platform for Meilisearch. It takes care of provisioning, upgrades, and operations so you can focus on building great search experiences. This section covers everything needed to run Meilisearch in production: creating and scaling projects, monitoring health and performance, managing costs, and collaborating with your team.

## Key concepts

**A project is a Meilisearch Cloud instance**: a fully isolated Meilisearch deployment with its own indexes, API keys, and settings. You can create as many projects as you need, across different regions or resource tiers. Billing is handled at the team or organization level, not per project.

**Teams** let you invite collaborators and assign them roles. Adding team members has no direct cost impact. Billing is based on your projects: what you pay depends on the resources allocated to each project (CPU, RAM) and the volume of searches and documents they handle.
