The control panel for managed AI

Customers ask for AI. Say yes, and run it on your servers.

AI Admin Panel lets hosting providers and MSPs run AI apps and agents for every customer, on servers they control. Each customer gets their own account, their own apps and only the controls you allow.

Free to try with up to three customers and five services.

§ 01

You want to say yes. Then the work starts.

A customer asks if you can run an AI agent for them. Then another wants a workflow tool, and a third wants a chat app for their team.

Each request becomes a separate server, set up by hand. Every small change goes through your support desk, and after a while nobody is sure who owns what.

AI Admin Panel puts all of it in one panel, on a server you control. Every customer and every app gets a clear owner.

Fig. 1.2Your team runs the panel, your customers use their apps, and you choose where each app's AI runs. If an app uses an outside AI service, its requests leave your server. A local model keeps those requests on it.

Select a unit to pull it out. Arrow keys move between units.

You decide where your customers' AI runs.

AI Admin Panel installs on your own Linux server. From there you put AI apps live from the catalog, from Git or from a Docker Compose file. The catalog lists 50 apps in version 2.17.0. They range from agents like OpenClaw and Hermes to workflow tools like n8n, chat apps and local models.

You also see how your apps are doing. The panel flags what needs attention, on the server and in each app, and you open an app's logs from there.

Note

The catalog lists what we package. Check each app with your own setup before you sell it.

Every customer gets their own account and sees only their own apps.

Set up plans that decide how many apps and how much capacity each customer gets. Then invite each customer's team. Their portal covers the routine things: checking an app, restarting it, seeing what their plan includes.

If you distribute AI Admin Panel to other providers, the Partner Center issues and tracks their licences.

Note

Plans, roles and resellers inside the panel come with the Web Host edition. Your billing system still sends the invoices.

You decide who may do what, and which AI service your apps use.

Switch on only the optional customer features you are ready to support, such as their own AI key. For apps that support it, you choose the AI route when you deploy. It can be the customer's own key, your metered key with a monthly budget, or a local model. Other apps take an AI key in the deploy form or set their AI provider inside the app.

Caution

If an app uses an outside AI service, its requests leave your server.

Why I built it

I spent about twenty years in the hosting industry, working with hosting providers and the people who build on them. Then I started an AI agency. Every customer needed their own separate setup for AI, and I couldn't find a panel that did that. So we built one.

Questions people ask

Do I have to replace cPanel or Plesk?

No. Your hosting panel keeps running your websites and email. AI Admin Panel runs the AI apps, on a separate server you set up for it.

What does the free edition include?

Up to three customers and five services, with the catalog, monitoring, notifications, the customer portal and the audit log. Power User removes those limits and adds custom domains and S3 backup. Web Host adds organisations, roles, projects, resource and service plans, and resellers. You can try either paid edition for 14 days.

Which Linux systems does it run on?

Certified versions of Ubuntu, Debian, Rocky Linux, AlmaLinux, RHEL and CentOS Stream. Our documentation lists each version.

Does our customers' data stay on our server?

The apps and their data run on your server. Some things leave it: requests to an outside AI service, backups to your storage, and emails and notifications. So do licence checks, updates, certificates and DNS, code fetched from Git, model downloads and any chat app you connect. Profile pictures load from Gravatar, using a code made from each user's email address. Each app can also make its own connections. For apps that support it, a local model keeps the AI requests on your server. Our documentation describes the panel's main connections. The licence agreement also lets the panel send us usage statistics, such as counts of customers and services.

Can my customers break things?

In the panel, they get the actions their plan and role allow, and server-level tools stay with your team. Inside each app, that app's own settings apply.
