Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Station, the Cloud Platform, pricing, and how CloudShip works.

About Station & CloudShip

Station is our open-source orchestration platform for running AI agents. It's free forever and allows you to deploy and run unlimited agent templates on your own infrastructure. Station provides MCP server integration, local LLM support, and connects seamlessly with your existing DevOps tools.

Station is the free open-source orchestration engine that runs on your infrastructure. The Cloud Platform (custom pricing) adds centralized management, chat with agent runs, dynamic dashboards, cross-context remediation, and team collaboration features. Think of Station as the engine and Cloud Platform as the control center.

Pricing & Plans

Yes. Station and all agent templates are completely free and open source. You can run unlimited agents on your own infrastructure without ever paying us. The cloud platform is optional and provides centralized management features for teams that need it.

The Cloud Platform provides a centralized dashboard for managing all your agents, real-time insights and analytics, cross-context remediation where agents work together, chat interface to query agent runs, custom reports for leadership, team member management, priority support, and API access.

Yes. We offer a 14-day free trial of the Cloud Platform with full access to all features. No credit card required to start the trial. You can also use Station indefinitely for free to evaluate the core platform.

Security & Privacy

The Cloud Platform receives agent run outputs, inputs, and execution metadata—but never your credentials or sensitive infrastructure data. Your agents run entirely on your infrastructure with your credentials. We only see what the agents did and the results, enabling cross-context insights without accessing your actual systems.

CloudShip is privacy-focused and allows you to use your own LLM model to comply with your company's AI guidelines. We implement enterprise-grade security measures including end-to-end encryption and role-based access control. All data is processed securely and in accordance with industry best practices.
