Independent AI infrastructure research
Run self-hosted AI agents 24/7 without guessing at the infrastructure.
Agent Infra Guide focuses on the systems behind persistent AI agents: hosting, VPS infrastructure, deployment, recovery, GPU compute, local hardware, security, and operational cost.
Persistent workloads
Infrastructure for agents that need background execution, persistent state, queues, storage, networking, and recovery.
Self-hosted systems
Deployment guidance for OpenClaw, Hermes, local models, MCP infrastructure, and the systems that keep them running.
Evidence before rankings
Provider recommendations should be tied to dated plans, regions, workloads, versions, costs, and reproducible tests rather than generic affiliate lists.

Solve the infrastructure decision before choosing the product.
Best AI Agent Hosting
Compare managed platforms, PaaS, VPS infrastructure, GPU cloud, and local deployment models for persistent AI agents.
Best VPS for AI Agents
Understand the infrastructure requirements that matter when an agent needs to run continuously and recover reliably.
Best Self-Hosted AI Agents
Compare self-hosted agent approaches by infrastructure, persistence, maintenance, security, and operational control.
How to Run an AI Agent 24/7
Build the runtime around persistent state, queues, supervision, recovery, logs, backups, and least-privilege tool access.
AI Agent Hosting Cost Calculator
Estimate infrastructure costs using your own VPS, GPU, storage, bandwidth, managed-service, or local-hardware assumptions.
What comes next
The next research layer will test OpenClaw and Hermes deployment, VPS requirements, managed hosting, GPU infrastructure, and local model sizing. Pages will expand as reproducible evidence becomes available.
