Deploy AI Agents to Production 24/7
Go from development to production typically under 20 minutes. Deploy your AI agent on a dedicated server with self-healing watchdog, atomic rollbacks, tamper-proof audit logging, and post-quantum encrypted mesh networking. Any framework. Any language. Full root SSH access. Plans from $14.99/month.
Deploying an AI agent to production is harder than deploying traditional software. Traditional web applications have well-established deployment patterns: container builds, load balancers, health checks, blue-green deployments. AI agents break these patterns because they are long-running, stateful, and autonomous. They maintain conversation histories, manage complex internal state, call external APIs unpredictably, and need to recover gracefully from failures without losing context. In 2026, with Gartner predicting 40% of enterprise applications will embed AI agents by year-end, the deployment gap between building an agent and running it reliably in production has become the biggest bottleneck in the agentic AI ecosystem.
Most teams today deploy agents on generic VPS instances or shared cloud platforms. The VPS approach means building process supervision, crash recovery, secrets management, and audit logging from scratch -- weeks of infrastructure work before the agent even runs. Shared platforms like Perplexity Computer ($200/month) or Manus AI ($199/month) abstract away infrastructure but remove control: no SSH, no root access, no custom configurations, credit-based pricing. osModa is the middle path: a dedicated server with a purpose-built agent runtime that handles the hard infrastructure problems while giving you full control over your deployment.
TL;DR
- • Go from zero to production-ready typically under 20 minutes: choose a plan, configure your agent, click deploy.
- • Works with any Linux-based framework -- LangGraph, CrewAI, AutoGen, MCP servers, custom Python/Node.js.
- • Post-deploy autopilot: watchdog restarts crashes in 6 seconds, NixOS rolls back bad updates automatically.
- • Full root SSH access to a dedicated Hetzner server -- not a sandbox, not a container, your own machine.
- • Plans from $14.99/mo with all features included; or self-host free (open source, Apache-2.0).

Configure Your Agent
Specify your agent's runtime requirements through the dashboard. The system generates the NixOS configuration automatically.
Framework and Runtime
Select your framework (LangGraph, CrewAI, AutoGen, MCP, custom) and runtime (Python 3.11+, Node.js 20+, Rust, or custom). The system installs the required dependencies through NixOS packages.
Environment Variables and Secrets
Set API keys, database URLs, and configuration parameters through the secrets manager. Secrets are encrypted at rest and injected into the agent process at runtime. Every secrets access is logged in the audit ledger.
Health Check Configuration
Define health check parameters: HTTP endpoint, expected response, check interval, and failure threshold. The watchdog daemon uses these to monitor your agent and trigger automatic restart on failure.
Deploy and Monitor
Click deploy. The system provisions your server, installs osModa, configures your agent, and starts the watchdog. Typically under 20 minutes, your agent is live.
SSH Access
Full root SSH access to your dedicated server. Inspect processes, tail logs, debug issues, install packages. This is your machine.
Watchdog Monitoring
The watchdog daemon supervises your agent process 24/7. Crash recovery in 6 seconds. Automatic NixOS rollback if restart fails. All events logged.
Audit Ledger
Every tool call, restart, configuration change, and system event is recorded in the tamper-evident audit ledger. Query, export, and verify at any time.
Why Not Just Deploy on a VPS?
A generic VPS gives you a blank Linux box. Everything you need for production agent deployment -- process supervision, crash recovery, secrets management, audit logging, rollback capability -- is on you to build. Here is what that actually means in practice.
On a VPS, You Build
- - systemd service files for process management
- - Custom health check scripts
- - Restart logic with backoff handling
- - Environment variable management
- - Secrets storage and injection
- - Log aggregation and rotation
- - Deployment scripts with rollback
- - Security hardening
- - Monitoring and alerting
Estimated setup time: 2-4 weeks
On osModa, You Get
- - Watchdog daemon (6-second recovery)
- - Health endpoint monitoring
- - Automatic restart with escalation
- - Secrets manager with audit logging
- - Encrypted secrets storage
- - Tamper-evident audit ledger
- - NixOS atomic rollback
- - Post-quantum encryption
- - 66 built-in Rust tools
Deployment time: ~15-20 minutes
What Happens After Deployment
Deployment is just the beginning. Here is what osModa does for your agent in production, 24/7, without your intervention.
Continuous Health Monitoring
The watchdog daemon monitors your agent through heartbeat signals, health endpoint checks, and resource utilization tracking. If any check fails, the watchdog initiates the recovery sequence automatically. You can set up webhook alerts to be notified of recovery events, but the recovery happens regardless of whether a human is watching. Learn more about the watchdog auto-restart.
Automatic Crash Recovery
Agent crashes are detected and recovered with a median time of 6 seconds. The watchdog restarts the process, verifies health, and logs the event. If restart fails, it escalates to a NixOS rollback. This means your agents can crash at 3am Saturday and be back online before anyone notices. Learn about self-healing servers.
Safe Updates and Rollbacks
When you update your agent, NixOS atomic deployment ensures the update either succeeds completely or does not apply. If the update breaks your agent, the system rolls back to the previous working state. No partial updates, no broken dependencies, no manual intervention needed. Explore NixOS atomic rollbacks.
Tamper-Proof Audit Trail
Every action your agent takes in production is recorded in the SHA-256 hash-chained audit ledger. Tool calls, API requests, file operations, restarts, configuration changes -- all cryptographically sealed. Export for compliance, use for debugging, or review for security investigations. See the audit ledger.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to deploy an AI agent on osModa?
Initial deployment takes approximately 15-20 minutes through the spawn.os.moda dashboard. This includes server provisioning, OS installation, daemon initialization, and agent configuration. Subsequent deployments (updates, configuration changes) are near-instant thanks to NixOS atomic switching. If you are migrating from a VPS, allow additional time for transferring agent code and data.
What frameworks can I deploy?
osModa supports any AI agent framework that runs on Linux: LangGraph, CrewAI, AutoGen, OpenClaw, custom Python agents, Node.js agents, Rust agents, and MCP servers. The 66 built-in tools handle file operations, network management, process supervision, and secrets injection regardless of your framework. If it runs on Linux, it runs on osModa.
Do I need to know NixOS to deploy?
No. The spawn.os.moda dashboard generates the NixOS configuration automatically based on your selections. You choose a plan, specify your framework and runtime requirements, set environment variables, and the system handles the rest. If you want to customize the NixOS configuration directly, you have full root SSH access to do so, but it is not required.
Can I deploy multiple agents on one server?
Yes. Each osModa server can run multiple agent processes. The watchdog daemon monitors each process independently, and the audit ledger records events for each agent with its unique identity. Resource allocation depends on your plan's server specifications. For resource-intensive agents or strict isolation requirements, separate servers (separate plans) may be preferable.
What happens after deployment?
After deployment, the watchdog daemon monitors your agent continuously. If it crashes, the watchdog restarts it within 6 seconds. If a deployment breaks the agent, NixOS rolls back automatically. Every action is logged in the tamper-evident audit ledger. You can SSH in anytime to inspect, debug, or modify the server. You can also set up webhook alerts for monitoring events.
Can I migrate from an existing VPS?
Yes. The migration process involves: deploying an osModa server, transferring your agent code and data via SSH/SCP, configuring environment variables and secrets through the secrets manager, and verifying the deployment with health checks. Most migrations complete within an hour. Your agent code does not need modification -- if it runs on Linux, it runs on osModa.
Is there a free trial?
osModa is open source. You can self-host on any server for free by installing from github.com/bolivian-peru/os-moda. The managed hosting service at spawn.os.moda starts at $14.99/month for a dedicated Hetzner server with the full osModa stack pre-installed. There is no free tier for managed hosting, but the self-hosted option lets you evaluate the full system at no cost.
