Any software on your servers
Ask for it. It runs on your servers.
One request installs any open-source application or your own software on infrastructure you control. The setup screen is generated, the update is reviewed, the drift is caught. There is nothing to operate by hand.

The product
Any software. On your server.
Say what the company needs. Akua runs it on your infrastructure, and asks you where it matters.

What you get
Install. Operate. Control.
As simple as an app store. As controlled as a bank. On your own server.
-
Install.
Any software, and any agent, in minutes on your own or European infrastructure. App-store feel, Kubernetes depth, no lock-in.
-
Operate.
Updates, security fixes and day-to-day operations run on the platform, increasingly by agents. No platform team required.
-
Control.
Every agent has an identity like an employee. Rules decide what runs alone. Critical changes need a person. Everything lands in the audit log.
Where it runs
Four places. One control plane.
Start on a managed machine and move to your own account when you are ready. The install does not change; only where it lives.
Akua-managed machines
One free machine to start. Hetzner Cloud today; nothing to bring.
Your own cloud key
Machines in your Hetzner project, paid on your account, no limits.
A cluster you already run
Import any Kubernetes cluster and install into it.
Machines in your building
Attach on-premises servers. Nothing leaves.
For people and agents
The same quickstart, whoever is asking.
Paste the quickstart into any coding agent and it installs the CLI, signs you in and asks what infrastructure you have. Or open it yourself. Either way the first install takes minutes, and secrets never pass through a chat.
What it costs
Free to start. Flat to grow.
One managed cluster and one machine are free. Pro is a flat fee per workspace and month; your own cloud key removes every limit, and compute is never marked up.
Questions
Before the first install.
Clear answers about deployment, control, and what your team keeps.
Which software can I install?
Anything with a container image: the popular open-source applications in the catalog, or your own software packaged once. If it runs in Docker, it can become a package.
Do I need to know Kubernetes?
No. You fill in a setup screen or ask an agent. Kubernetes is underneath and operated the same way for every application.
What happens on update?
An update arrives as a reviewed change: rendered, deployed and verified in one transaction, rolled back if a probe fails. You see the diff before it lands.
Can an agent do this for me?
Yes. Point any coding agent at the quickstart and it installs the CLI, signs you in, asks what infrastructure you have and takes it from there. Secrets never enter the conversation.
What does it cost?
Free to start with one managed cluster and one machine. Pro is a flat fee per workspace and month. Your own cloud key removes every limit, and compute is never marked up.
