What DevOps Agent is

What the product does, who it is for, and what it deliberately does not do.

A server is a computer that someone else keeps switched on for you. Your website, your app or your database runs on it. Normally, looking after that computer means opening a black terminal window and typing commands — which is why most people pay a developer to do it, and why nobody notices when something is slowly going wrong.

DevOps Agent replaces the black window with ordinary web pages, and adds an assistant you can ask questions in plain English.

What you can do with it

See whether things are healthy. The Servers page shows one card per server with six numbers — disk, memory, load, services, updates, restart needed — and turns every problem into a sentence like "Disk / is 96% full" instead of a number you have to interpret.

Fix the common things yourself. Restart a website that stopped, read the last hundred lines of an error log, upload a file, install security updates, free up disk space. Each of these is a tab with buttons, described in the Servers section.

Ask the assistant. Type "my site shows 502, please look" and it connects to the server, reads the logs, tells you what it found, and — if you let it — fixes it. It asks permission before every single change. See The AI assistant.

Watch your site from the outside. Uptime monitoring checks a URL every 1, 5 or 10 minutes and records whether it answered, how fast, and when the security certificate expires.

Understand your AWS account. If you use Amazon Web Services, connect it and you get your bill broken down, your security findings, your users, your logs and your storage in the same app. See AWS.

Keep a record. Every action taken through DevOps Agent is written to a per-server Activity log that nobody can edit — who did what, when, and whether it worked.

Who it is for

  • Business owners with a website who lost their developer and need to keep the site alive.
  • Developers who inherited the server and would rather not spend a morning re-learning systemctl.
  • Agencies and dev shops looking after servers for several clients, who need separate logins and a record of who did what.

What it is not

  • It is not a host. You still rent your servers from DigitalOcean, Hetzner, AWS, or whoever you use today. We connect to what you already have.
  • It is not a backup service. It can run a backup for you and tell you whether your backups look healthy, but it does not store copies of your data.
  • It does not replace a person for serious incidents. It is very good at the everyday things and at explaining what it found. A database that has lost data still needs a human being.
  • It is not a sandbox. When you give the assistant permission to change something, it really changes it on your real server. That is why the approval switch exists.

How your passwords and keys are treated

Short version: your server passwords, SSH keys and cloud keys are encrypted before they are stored, they are only ever decrypted on our server to make the connection you asked for, they are never sent to your browser, and they are never given to the AI model. The long version, including what the AI can see, is in How we protect your credentials.
