Agent Zero is a general autonomous agent. You give it a goal in its web dashboard and it plans the steps, writes and runs code, browses with its own browser, and reports back. Running it yourself means Docker, a server that stays on, and a public endpoint you have to secure.
Hivra hosts the full Agent Zero stack on a private managed VM: the agent loop, its tools, and its own browser and computer, exactly as the project ships. The dashboard sits behind an authenticated gateway with a login created at provision. Configure your own model provider in Agent Zero's Settings, or use a supported managed model option.
It needs a paid plan. Agent Zero's minimum footprint is 1 vCPU and 2 GB RAM, and the $9.99 plan gives you 2 vCPU and 4 GB. Paid plans are never paused for inactivity.

How it works
- Sign up and launch Agent ZeroLaunch opens with Agent Zero selected. On Hivra Cloud it needs a paid plan, from $9.99 a month. Name the agent and launch.
- Hivra provisions a private VMThe full Agent Zero stack comes up in a container, with at least 1 vCPU and 2 GB RAM.
- Open its dashboard and set a modelIt's reachable only through Hivra's authenticated gateway, with a login created at provision. Configure model access before your first task.
- Give it a goalIt plans, browses, writes and runs code, and reports back. It keeps working after you close the tab.
Self-hosted vs managed, honestly
- DIY: run the Docker container on a VPS, secure the web UI yourself, and keep it updated.
- Hivra stands it up behind an authenticated gateway and restarts the container if it crashes.
- Same open-source project either way, and you can point it at your own model provider in Settings.
- A VPS is a monthly bill plus your time. On Hivra, plans start at $9.99 a month.
Common questions
How much does it cost to deploy Agent Zero?
Agent Zero needs a paid plan. Plans start at $9.99 a month for 2 vCPU and 4 GB RAM, and Agent Zero's minimum footprint is 1 vCPU and 2 GB. Model usage bills through whichever provider you use. Card payments come with a 7-day money-back guarantee.
Is this an official Agent Zero product?
No. Hivra hosts the open-source Agent Zero unmodified, in a container on a private VM, exactly as the project ships it. Hivra is an independent hosting service and isn't affiliated with or endorsed by the Agent Zero project.
What do I need to bring?
A paid plan and model access. The dashboard login is created for you at provision. Configure your own model provider in Agent Zero's Settings, or use a supported managed model option, before you give it a task. Provider credentials may be stored on your agent computer, and Hivra administrators keep infrastructure access to Hivra-managed hosts.
Does Agent Zero get a browser?
Yes. Agent Zero ships its own browser and computer inside its container, and you watch both work from its dashboard. No extra setup and no separate browser add-on needed.
What happens when I close my laptop?
The agent keeps working. It runs on a managed cloud VM, not your machine, and paid plans are never paused for inactivity. Hand it a long task, log off, and check the result later from any device.
How is this different from running Agent Zero in Docker locally?
Same container, different machine. Locally it stops when your computer sleeps and exposing the web UI safely is on you. On Hivra its cloud computer stays on and the dashboard is only reachable through an authenticated gateway.
Hivra is independent and is not affiliated with the Agent Zero project.
