Getting Started
Introduction to RepoCloud
Deploy open-source applications as managed containers or dedicated VPS instances with one click or an AI agent, and provision Ubuntu VPS servers through an API
Welcome to RepoCloud
RepoCloud is a cloud marketplace for deploying open-source applications. Choose from hundreds of pre-configured applications and deploy them in minutes. A Container App needs no server management; a VPS App gives you the whole server, and an AI agent can install the application on it for you.
RepoCloud offers two deployment models to fit different needs:
Managed Docker containers with optional autoscaling, one-click Rebuild / Update, and automatic SSL. No SSH access — fully managed through the dashboard.
Dedicated virtual private servers with full root SSH access, a dedicated IPv4 address, snapshots, and power controls.
Three Ways to Deploy
Browse the marketplace, pick an app, click Deploy. Works for Container Apps, and for a plain Ubuntu VPS.
Paste a GitHub repository URL. An AI agent installs and configures it over SSH on a VPS of yours while you follow and steer in a chat.
Deploy and manage Ubuntu VPS instances programmatically, or connect AI coding agents via MCP.
Customize with AI Agents
A chat with an AI system administrator that works on your own server over SSH. It installs an application, configures it, and changes it again when you ask.
Example instructions for themes, plugins, email, sign-in, backups, and more.
Run an AI agent of your own, such as Hermes Agent or OpenClaw, on a VPS.
Let Cursor, Claude Code, or another AI tool provision and manage servers through the API and MCP.
What Sets Us Apart
Container Apps from $3 a month (Tier 1), VPS Apps from $6 (Tier 2): 40% to 90% below the comparable plans of the eleven providers listed in the comparison
Pre-configured open-source apps ready to deploy: databases, CMS platforms, analytics tools, AI frameworks, and more
Pay by the hour with no commitment. Turn on Auto Recharge to top up the balance when it falls below a limit you set.
