More people should get to make things.
That has been the promise of the web for thirty years, and infrastructure has been quietly breaking it the whole time. Two of us have spent decades building and running that infrastructure. agenthost is what we think it should have been.
Decades on the difficult half.
Between us, that is what our careers have been. Running hosting. Keeping servers up at three in the morning. Building websites, and then the business systems underneath them, for people whose actual job was something else entirely.
The same thing kept happening. Somebody knew exactly what they wanted and could describe it in one clear sentence. Then it took a budget, six weeks and at least one person like us, because everything between an idea and a working address is technical, and always has been.
That was never a failure of the people who had the ideas. It is simply what infrastructure is. Servers, builds, certificates, DNS, backups: none of it is about the thing you are making, and all of it has to be right before anybody can see it.
The describing half got solved
An agent can now build what somebody describes in a sentence. That side of the gap closed quickly, and it closed for everyone at once rather than for developers first.
The shipping half did not
Hosting still expected a developer at the end of it. A dashboard of settings, a build command, a port, a certificate. The wall had not gone anywhere. It had just moved to the last step, where it is most infuriating.
So we took it off the path
Not a simpler dashboard. No dashboard. The agent that built your app is the one that puts it online, because it already knows every answer the form was asking for. That is the whole design, and everything else here follows from it.
What we actually believe.
Four things, stated plainly enough to be disagreed with. Every decision in the product comes from one of them, including the ones that cost us money.
Making things should spread
The best ideas about a business, a charity, a classroom or a team usually belong to somebody inside it. When building stops requiring a specialist, you get software from people who were never going to be able to commission any. We think that is straightforwardly good, and we would like more of it.
Difficult is not the same as valuable
Nothing about a build command teaches you anything. Nothing about a DNS record is interesting. Doing it professionally for twenty years is what convinced us it should be invisible. It is not what convinced us it was worth charging you for.
The person with the idea should be the one who ships it
Every handover loses something and adds a week. This is not an argument that developers are unnecessary, and plenty of them use agenthost precisely because it deletes the boring part. It is an argument that waiting for one should not be the price of putting a page online.
New in one place, old-fashioned everywhere else
The way you talk to it is new. Nothing else should be. One price on a public page. Your data in Europe. An address that reaches a person. Everything you make exportable on the day you decide to leave.
Beliefs are cheap. These are the ones already paid for.
Each of these costs us something real, and each is checkable on a page of its own rather than on this one.
There is no dashboard at all
Not a simplified one for beginners with the real controls elsewhere. There is no admin panel, for anybody, on any plan. Everything happens through the agent you already use.
How that works →One price, published
Ten sites free forever with no card. Twelve euros a month for everything else, and four per app with its database included. No call to book, no quote, no tier where the number is hidden.
See the pricing →European, all the way up the chain
French servers, a French operator, a Swedish supplier and no US parent anywhere above them. The data processing agreement is a public URL that was in force before you thought to ask for it.
Where it runs →Support is us
One inbox, answered during Swedish business hours by a person who works on agenthost and can change it. No ticket tiers, no chatbot in front, and no support plan to upgrade to.
How support works →The technical claims have their own page too, including the things we deliberately do not claim. How agenthost is built and run →
Who “we” is.
agenthost is co-founded by two people. Between us: decades of building and operating hosting and infrastructure, and decades of building websites and business systems for other people, which is where we learned what the difficulty actually costs them. Both halves matter here. One is why the thing works, the other is why it is shaped like this.
The company behind agenthost is Bernskiold Media AB, registered in Sweden, with its registration and VAT numbers at the bottom of every page here. The servers are in France. Write to support and the reply comes from one of us.
We are small on purpose. It is why the price is one number in public, why there is nobody to get past before you can try it, and why a feature you ask for is a conversation rather than a form. It is also why nothing here is locked in: your files, your database and your domain are yours to take elsewhere on any day you like. We would rather earn the next month than make leaving difficult.
The rest of it.
How does agenthost make money?
Subscriptions, and only subscriptions. Twelve euros a month for a plan and four for each app, which is the whole of it. We do not sell data, we do not take a share of anything you build on top of us, and there is no upsell waiting a few months in. The whole price list →
Do I have to be enthusiastic about AI to use this?
You do need an agent, because that is how anything gets deployed here and there is no other way in. Beyond that, no. We do not run a model, we do not charge for tokens, and what you end up with is an ordinary website or app on an ordinary server. The agent is the interface, in the same way a dashboard used to be.
Is agenthost for non-technical people or for developers?
It was designed for the first group, which is unusual in hosting and is the reason there are no settings anywhere. Developers turn out to like that for the same reason, and get a repository that deploys on every push with no workflow file to write. The developer version of the pitch →
Why is it built in Europe?
Because we are, and because the people we built this for are the ones for whom the question actually lands: the small business collecting customer details, the agency answering a client’s procurement form. Keeping it in one place means there is one answer to give, with no region to choose wrongly. The whole chain, named →
Can we talk to you about something else?
Yes. Partnerships, press, a use case you are not sure fits, or telling us the product is wrong about something. It all goes to the same inbox as a broken deploy, and a person reads it. Write to us →
The fastest way to judge any of this.
Put something online and see what it feels like. Ten static sites free forever, no card, and about a minute from asking to a link you can send.
