Create and operate application infrastructure without needing to understand Proxmox, tunnels, or VLANs. Your servers get a private hostname and a stable project IP — reachable from your enrolled devices, and nowhere else.
GuildCloud is not an AWS replacement at launch. It is a focused, trustworthy private cloud first — and every claim on this page is written to match what has actually been tested.
Private access
No public SSH route on MVP instances
Clear recovery
Restores are tested before they are promised
Wallet-first
Costs stay visible before anything is created
DigitalOcean-style guided clarity with Hetzner-style compact operational detail. Slow work is never hidden — provisioning streams its stages, and failures tell you which stage failed.

Each service ships with an explicit boundary. If something is not offered yet, it says so here rather than in a support ticket later.
Private virtual servers with supported OS images, safe resize, volumes, backup, monitoring, and SSH keys.
Boundary: No public VPS IP or public SSH in the MVP.
One project-isolated shared managed cluster per site.
Boundary: Dedicated clusters are a future premium module.
Private managed PostgreSQL with backup, recovery, and monitoring.
Boundary: MySQL is future work.
S3-compatible application and file storage with versioning.
Boundary: Storage classes expand later.
Expandable block storage for instances and persistent workloads.
Boundary: Disk shrinking is not offered in the MVP.
Node.js and Python functions for HTTP, schedules, storage events, and PostgreSQL events.
Boundary: Container runtime is advanced/future.
Public-IP server access creates exposure and setup work you did not ask for. GuildCloud instances have no public IP at all. Your laptop and your servers each establish outbound encrypted connectivity, and your project policy decides who can reach what.
Network zones
You never talk to Proxmox directly. GuildCloud owns the control plane; Proxmox is the execution plane behind it.
A backup is not considered valid until a restore drill proves it can be used. These tiers describe workflows that have been run, not aspirations.
Included
Daily encrypted off-site backup, seven-day retention, and restore into a healthy site.
Included baseline on every resource.
Paid add-on
More frequent recovery points, a longer retention option, and priority restore handling.
For workloads where a day of loss is too much.
Premium
A prepared secondary-site recovery workflow, offered only after real full-site drills pass.
Limited capacity. No active-active promise.
GuildCloud is wallet-first. Every metered event becomes an explainable ledger entry, and the hourly price and monthly maximum appear before anything is created.
Hourly price, monthly maximum, protection, storage, and add-on costs.
Per organization, with optional auto-reload you configure.
Paystack and Flutterwave, with methods suited to your country and currency.
Payment failures get retries, notice, and a documented grace period.
Plan sizes and prices are derived from measured site capacity. Nothing is advertised that cannot be consistently delivered.
Anyone can sign up and explore. Email and payment verification are required before paid resources are created — and larger limits or custom recovery go through a conversation.
