Would you use free or paid hosting to test a new idea?

Hey Friends, I just created something. But I want to test it before I launch it. So I wanted to ask you which platform would be suitable for testing. Should I use Free to test it, then move to paid, or should I directly launch it? And which Free or Paid Hosting provider I should Start With?

While I was searching for one, I came across the fact that many Free hosting providers are good enough for starting, but I am still a bit confused. So I wanted to know what you would do: use Free hosting and test the idea, or directly launch it on a paid one?

    A little more context would definitely help. But if you are just testing - host it on Vercel. That's more than you need. If Vercel doesn't do the job - at $5 VPS from DigialOcean should be good to go with.
