a repository.
Platform builds it, runs it, gives it a domain with a certificate, and shows you the logs. It is the deploy plane of the Open AI Cloud, and it runs on one VPS as happily as on a cluster you already own.
curl -sSL https://hanzo.ai/install.sh | sh# Any VPS, one command. It installs the
# platform and prints the console URL.
curl -sSL https://hanzo.ai/install.sh | sh
# Or skip the server entirely and use the
# managed one at app.hanzo.ai.
# Develop it locally — pnpm monorepo:
pnpm install
pnpm platform:setup
pnpm platform:devThe services an app needs anyway
Platform ships your code. These are the pieces it lands next to — each one a service you can deploy beside your app, or reach on Hanzo Cloud without deploying anything.
Core Services
Auth
Authentication, SSO, OAuth, JWT, and user management out of the box
Functions
Serverless functions with automatic scaling and edge deployment
Database
SQL, vector search, and real-time subscriptions
Storage
Distributed object storage with CDN integration
Realtime
WebSockets, presence, and live sync for collaborative apps
Secrets
Encrypted secret management with versioning and rotation
Additional Services

Principle 14
Where it runs is your call
Same platform, same console, same API. What changes is whose machines it lands on.
Self-Hosted
One command on a VPS you already pay for. Everything the managed one does, on hardware you can walk up to.
- ✓ Runs anywhere Docker runs
- ✓ Scales out across a Swarm cluster
- ✓ Or drives a Kubernetes cluster you own
Hanzo Cloud
The same platform, run for you. Sign in and deploy — there is no server to stand up first.
- ✓ Nothing to provision
- ✓ Deploy on push, or only on a tag
- ✓ Metered and billed per organization
Hybrid
Run the control plane on your own server and let it deploy out to remote servers and clusters you already have.
- ✓ Servers stay where they are
- ✓ One console over all of them
- ✓ Per-app target: this host, Swarm, or Kubernetes
Open source, all of it
Apache-2.0. Forked from Dokploy, and it says so in the NOTICE.
Apache-2.0
Use it commercially. Change it. The upstream attribution travels with it, because a fork that hides its parent is one you cannot audit.
It is your server
Builds, images, databases and backups sit on machines you chose, in a region you picked, under credentials you hold.
Read the part that surprised you
When a deploy does something you did not expect, the code that did it is right there, and so is the OpenAPI document the console itself calls.
