AI agent hosting
A hosted AI agent on its own computer.
plori hosts the agent for you: an isolated machine with a persistent disk and real tools. Talk to it in chat or drive it over MCP; when idle it sleeps and stops billing for compute.
Opens your agent straight away, no signup needed.
What does hosting an agent get you?
§01A real machine, managed
No servers to run. Every agent boots on its own isolated computer with a shell, code and research tools, and whatever it installs for the job.
State that survives
The agent keeps its persistent disk and memory. Close the tab tonight, continue tomorrow.
Sleeps when idle
An idle agent stops drawing compute entirely. Disk within your plan is free, so a sleeping agent inside its included disk costs nothing.
Works unattended
Scheduled runs and background tasks let the agent work while you are away and report back into the conversation.
Human-in-the-loop built in
When the agent needs an approval or a secret, the run parks and waits for you, in the dashboard or over MCP, then resumes.
One API surface
Everything is drivable over MCP with a single key: create agents, invoke them, read results, schedule work.
How does it work?
§02- 01Open plori.ai/agent (or call create_agent over MCP). The agent boots on its own computer with a fresh disk.
- 02Give it work in plain language. It runs in its own shell, saves output to its disk, and remembers what matters.
- 03Leave. The agent finishes background work, runs anything you scheduled, and goes to sleep when idle.
- 04Come back to the same agent: same files, same memory, and nothing billed in between while it stays inside your plan's disk.
Questions, answered.
§03What is AI agent hosting?
AI agent hosting is running an AI agent as a persistent service instead of a one-off process on your laptop. On plori, hosting an agent means it gets its own isolated computer: a disk that persists, a real shell with CLI tools, and memory. You talk to it from the web or drive it programmatically over MCP; plori runs the infrastructure.
How much does it cost to host an AI agent?
plori bills usage from one pool of credits: an agent draws credits while it works and nothing while it sleeps, since idle agents scale to zero and disk within your plan is free. The Free plan is $0 with 500 credits per month and 1 GB of disk; Pro is $20 per month with 2,000 credits and 20 GB; Power is $100 per month with 12,000 credits and 50 GB. A typical task costs tens of credits.
Can I try it without signing up?
Yes. plori.ai/agent opens a working trial agent with 100 credits and its own disk, no email or card. Signing up later keeps the agent, its conversations, and its files.
How are hosted agents isolated from each other?
Every agent runs on its own isolated machine. Nothing is shared between agents of different accounts, and even your own agents keep separate private directories carved from one account disk.
Can my own app or agent drive a hosted agent?
Yes. plori exposes its control plane as an MCP server at api.plori.ai/mcp. Any MCP client, including Claude, ChatGPT, an IDE, or your own code, can create agents, send them work, read replies, answer approval requests, and schedule runs, scoped to your account by one API key.
Which models do hosted agents use?
You do not pick one: the plori router chooses a model per task, the cheapest that fits. The Free plan routes among cost-efficient models; paid plans add the frontier models for the jobs that need them. You can also bring your own provider key (OpenRouter, OpenAI, DeepSeek, Groq, xAI, or Together) so model usage bills your provider directly and stops drawing credits.
