Professional-Grade Access

The tools you need to manage applications at the system level, without the overhead of managing a server

Full Terminal Access

Run commands, install packages, and manage your applications directly from the command line.

Per-App Isolation

Each application gets its own secure user with isolated file access. No cross-contamination between apps.

SSH Key Management

Add, remove, and manage SSH public keys from your dashboard. Ed25519 and RSA supported.

Multiple PHP Versions

Switch between PHP 8.1, 8.2, and 8.3 per user. Composer and WP-CLI included.

Secure File Transfer

SFTP access for drag-and-drop file management with your favorite FTP client.

Database CLI Access

Connect to MySQL, PostgreSQL, Redis, and MongoDB directly from the terminal.

Secure by Design

Every SSH session runs inside an isolated environment with strict permission boundaries. Your files, processes, and database connections are invisible to other accounts.

Per-application user accounts

Each app gets a dedicated system user. Files are owned exclusively by that user.

Key-based authentication only

Password login is disabled. Add Ed25519 or RSA keys from your dashboard.

Process isolation

Users can only see and manage their own processes. No visibility into other accounts.

Restricted file access

POSIX ACLs ensure no user can read, write, or list files belonging to another application.

Database connections via private channels

CLI tools connect through private Unix sockets. Credentials are pre-configured in your session.
