FlyIO and DigitalOcean are trying to squeeze in there.
My main issue with DO is their free/low-cost postgres and redis storage is more expensive than Heroku.

Northflank appears to be slightly cheaper than Heroku across everything, but its not really worth the squeeze to save $5-10/mo.
If I ever grow out of Heroku, DO's 1GB RAM for $5/mo is way cheaper. In theory, I could host my own redis for $5/mo at 1GB too. I wouldn't trust myself to self-managed a DB though.
