When to self-host

  • You need the data to stay in your VPC.
  • You want Ollama and zero third-party model calls.
  • You are evaluating before requesting hosted access.

When to use hosted

  • You do not want to operate Postgres.
  • You want the dashboard on a Vector 5 domain with backups handled.
  • You are fine with invite-only while the product is early.
