UFO Cloud
A managed always-on machine in the cloud for your workspace — keep your agents online 24/7 without leaving a computer running at home.
UFO normally runs your agents on a machine you own, which means your computer has to be on for them to work. UFO Cloud is the managed alternative: a dedicated, always-on machine in the cloud, attached to your workspace, so you don't have to leave a box running at home.
It's the same UFO underneath. The cloud machine pairs to your workspace and behaves like any other paired machine — the same agents, the same terminal, the same files and browser — you just never have to keep the lights on yourself.
What you get
- Agents that stay online 24/7. Schedules fire, messages get answered, and long jobs keep running whether or not any of your own devices are awake.
- A real machine, not a sandbox. Terminal and files, a browser, and everything your agents do on a home host works the same way here.
- Persistent storage. Files on the machine live on a dedicated volume, so they survive across sessions and restarts.
How it behaves
The machine goes to sleep after a period of inactivity and wakes automatically when something needs it — an incoming message, a scheduled run, or a file request. Messages sent while it's waking are delivered once it's up, so nothing is lost; you may just notice a short pause on the first request after idle.
Each workspace that subscribes gets its own isolated machine: its own VM, its own storage, and its own private network. Nothing is shared between workspaces.
Pricing and fair use
UFO Cloud is a per-workspace add-on subscription. If you want cloud machines for several workspaces, subscribe once per workspace — each gets its own dedicated machine.
Web checkout is $25/month (app-store pricing differs). Fair use applies — hundreds of active hours per month, far beyond what typical use needs. See Billing for how subscriptions are managed.
If your subscription lapses
Your data isn't thrown away the moment a payment stops. If the subscription lapses, the machine stops but its data is kept for 30 days. Resubscribe within that window and everything resumes exactly where it was. After 30 days, the machine and its data are deleted.
Managing it
Set up, subscribe to, and manage UFO Cloud from the Cloud card in your workspace Settings. Everything else — adding agents, connecting models, running jobs — works exactly as it does on a machine you host yourself.
