2 vCPU · 8 GiB, while it runs. Hibernated machines pay for disk only.
A running machine bills vCPU, RAM, and disk. A suspended machine keeps its memory warm for instant resume and bills RAM and disk. A hibernated machine writes memory to disk and bills disk only. Machines hibernate automatically when network activity stops, and you can turn on auto-suspend as well. Prices exclude VAT.
Pricing FAQ
- How does billing work?
- Credit-based. You buy credits and your organization's machines draw them down at the rate card: €0.049 per vCPU-hour, €0.015 per GiB-hour of RAM, and €0.0001 per GiB-hour of disk. A default machine (2 vCPU / 8 GiB) is about €0.22 per hour while it runs. There is no monthly plan and no per-seat fee.
- What do I get for free?
- €30 of credits: €5 the moment you sign up, and €25 more when you add a payment method. Nothing is charged when you add the card. It is how we keep fraudsters off real machines.
- Do I pay while a machine is hibernated?
- Only for disk, and only for the space actually used, not the 100 GiB provisioned. A machine hibernates automatically when its network activity stops: memory is written to disk and resumes in sub-millisecond when traffic arrives. There is also an optional auto-suspend state that keeps memory warm for instant resume; a suspended machine pays for RAM and disk. vCPU is billed only while a machine is actually running.
- How do organizations fit in?
- Every account is an organization. Invite your team, share machines, and draw from one credit balance. Usage across all members bills to the organization. Each organization starts with a quota of 50 machines; email contact@boxd.sh to raise it or to get larger shapes than the default 2 vCPU / 8 GiB.
- What if I want to run boxd myself?
- Self-host it: a single Rust binary you run in your own VPC, datacenter, or country. No Kubernetes, no external Postgres, no Redis. EU data residency, SSO + audit logs, annual license, dedicated support. It works for a two-person startup as well as for a bank's DORA / NIS2 review.
