Kubeara Overview
Kubeara Overview
What is Kubeara about?
Kubeara provides a self‑hosted PaaS that lets you connect any server via SSH and deploy databases, web applications, AI models, and other services with a single click. It replicates the convenience of platforms like Coolify, Heroku, Railway, Render, Netlify, and Vercel while keeping all data on your own infrastructure and offering a free‑forever license.
How to use Kubeara?
- Self‑hosted installation – run the one‑liner
curl -fsSL https://get.kubeara.dev | shor manually clone the repo, copy.env.exampleto.env, and start withdocker compose up -d. The dashboard becomes reachable athttp://<your‑server‑ip>:3000. - Kubeara Cloud – sign up at
app.kubeara.devfor a managed control plane. Connect your own servers from the cloud dashboard. - In the dashboard, add a server (IP + SSH key), validate the connection, and click Deploy on any of the 200+ pre‑built templates.
Key features of Kubeara
- One‑click deployment from >200 vetted templates (NestJS, Next.js, React, databases, AI models, etc.)
- GPU monitoring & VRAM checker – per‑container utilization, temperature, and memory validation before model pulls
- AI model management – pull, switch, delete Ollama or custom LLMs without SSH
- Native MCP integration – control infrastructure through any MCP‑compatible client (Claude, Cursor, …)
- Agent‑based security – outbound‑only agent, no plaintext SSH keys stored, encrypted secrets
- Automatic SSL, custom domains, rolling updates, volume persistence, and real‑time logs
- Multi‑server & multi‑region management with team collaboration, API keys, and role‑based access
- Free cloud tier – one server, no credit card, no time limit
- Enterprise add‑ons – SSO/SAML/OIDC, LDAP/AD, audit logs, SLA, priority support
Use cases of Kubeara
| Use case | Why Kubeara fits |
|---|---|
| Private AI deployment | Run Ollama, Open WebUI, or custom LLMs on‑premise; VRAM checks prevent failed pulls |
| Compliance‑driven teams (healthcare, fintech, legal) | Data never leaves your servers, agent‑only outbound connections |
| MSPs & agencies | Manage multiple client servers from a single dashboard, deploy identical stacks quickly |
| Teams migrating from Heroku/Render | Same one‑click experience with full control and lower cost |
| DevOps automation | Replace manual Docker Compose scripts with a control plane, get real‑time resource metrics |
FAQ from Kubeara
- Is there any cost for self‑hosted usage? No. The self‑hosted version is MIT‑licensed and free forever.
- Do I need to store SSH keys in the database? No. The agent initiates outbound connections only; plaintext keys are never stored.
- Can I run Kubeara on Kubernetes? Yes. Kubeara can manage any server, including nodes in a Kubernetes cluster, via the SSH agent.
- How does GPU monitoring work? The agent collects per‑container GPU utilization, VRAM usage, and temperature, exposing them in the dashboard.
- What is the difference between the free cloud tier and self‑hosted? Cloud handles the control‑plane hosting and updates; self‑hosted gives you full ownership of the control plane.
- How are security updates applied? Docker images are rebuilt automatically; the agent pulls the latest image and restarts containers without downtime.
Kubeara's README
Kubeara
Deploy anything on your own servers.
Connect a server, click deploy, done.
MIT licensed and free to self-host forever.
Kubeara is an open source platform to deploy and manage any service on your own servers — databases, applications, AI models, and more.
Connect your server. Choose a service. Click deploy. Everything else is handled.
The self-hosted alternative to Coolify, Heroku, Railway, Render, Netlify, and Vercel.
Managed cloud platforms give you convenience but take away control. Your data sits on their servers. Their pricing scales against you. Their outages become your problem.
Kubeara gives you the same one-click deployment experience — on infrastructure you own.
✅ No data leaving your servers.
✅ No per-seat pricing surprises.
✅ No vendor lock-in.
✅ Free forever for self-hosted.
Two ways to use Kubeara

Why Kubeara
Most deployment platforms were built for web applications. Kubeara was built specifically for private infrastructure — databases, AI models, and services that must run on your own servers.
What is built in
| Capability | What it does |
|---|---|
| GPU monitoring | Real-time utilization, VRAM usage, and temperature per container. Not just server-wide — per service. |
| VRAM checker | Validates available GPU memory before every model pull. Prevents failed deployments before they start. |
| AI model management | Pull, switch, and delete AI models from the dashboard. No SSH. No terminal commands. |
| MCP integration | Native MCP server. Manage infrastructure through Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client. |
| Agent-based security | Agent runs on your server and initiates outbound connections only. No Plain text SSH keys stored in any database. |
| Framework deployment | Framework-specific Dockerfiles for NestJS, Next.js, and React. Works first time without Nixpacks errors. |
| 200+ templates | Every template validated through automated testing including live deployment verification. |
| Free cloud tier | One server free on Kubeara Cloud. No credit card. No time limit. No other platform offers this. |
Who uses Kubeara
| Use case | Why Kubeara |
|---|---|
| Private AI deployment | Run Ollama, Open WebUI, and local LLMs on your own server. Data never leaves your infrastructure. |
| Compliance-driven teams | Healthcare, fintech, and legal teams that cannot send data to third-party AI providers. |
| Agencies and MSPs | Manage multiple client servers from one dashboard. Deploy the same stack across all clients in minutes. |
| Versal, Heroku and Render refugees | Same deployment experience. Your infrastructure. Fraction of the cost. |
| DevOps teams | Replace manual Docker Compose management with a proper control plane and monitoring. |
Quick Start
Self-hosted (free forever)
curl -fsSL https://get.kubeara.dev | sh
View the install script before running: install.sh
Open dashboard: http://your-server-ip:3000
Manual install:
git clone https://github.com/kubeara/core
cd control-panel
cp .env.example .env
docker compose up -d
Kubeara Cloud (no setup required)
→ Start free at app.kubeara.dev
Free tier — one server, no credit card, no time limit.
After install
- Open the dashboard
- Click Add Server
- Provide server IP and SSH key
- Click Validate and Connect
- Deploy your first service
Why should I use the Cloud version?
Self-hosted is free and always will be. Cloud is for teams who want the same experience without managing the Kubeara control plane themselves.
Your application data never touches our infrastructure on any plan. Both options deploy to servers you connect. We only manage the Kubeara dashboard.
Cloud is the right choice if
- You want automatic Kubeara updates that includes latest security patches, bug fixes and new services
- You want backups handled automatically
- You want email or priority support
- You do not want to maintain the control plane yourself

- Agent initiates outbound connections only
- No Plain text SSH keys stored in any database
- No persistent access to your server after initial bootstrap
- All agent communication encrypted in transit
