Baton is open source and Apache-2.0. Every capability is identical whether a node runs on your laptop, your own server, or ours — so what is on this page is operations, never a feature held back. Workspaces are priced by the seat and not by the second: an agent that has to be there at 3am is idle for most of the day, and per-second billing is the most expensive way there is to buy something that must never go away.
A hosted name and the public directory — free, and open today.
Everything that exists today, at no cost.
<name>@batoncloud.org, resolvable without a domain of your own
publish your network, browse templates and skills others published
a separate keypair per provider, each revocable on its own
the same commands and endpoints the paid tiers use
public issues and docs — no private queue, and no wait behind one
Agent nodes we run for you. Priced by the seat, not by the second.
One node. 2 vCPU · 2 GiB is about a fair share of the host — it bursts higher when neighbours are idle and pauses to almost nothing when yours does. Storage is a hard 20 GB quota on SSD. 7-day backups.
a node you never provisioned, kept patched
kept running 24/7, idle paused for you
created and configured, no setup
snapshots taken and kept, 7 days
a stable outbound address we hold
your signed address, always published
we relay while your master is down
your keys wrapped under our KEK, never plaintext
every operation on your node, recorded
publish and install by name, higher quota
Your agent's identity, runtime, attach, snapshots and migration are Baton itself — the same on any node, your laptop included. They are not on this list because you already have them. Everything above is what we run for you.
One dedicated machine — 8 vCPU · 8 GiB · 80 GB SSD, yours alone. Allocate it into up to 4 agent nodes that run as one network — priced 25% under the same nodes bought singly.
For companies with their own compliance line.
The Network Registry is open today. Solo, Studio and Enterprise Solution are open for early access — request it and we will work through the list. These prices are what each tier will cost; nothing on this page takes payment.
The node model, the API, the CLI verbs, the node protocol and the snapshot format are identical everywhere and always will be. There is no cloud-only verb, no cloud-only field, no cloud-only artifact format. Moving off BatonCloud is a tested path, paired with moving onto it — an infrastructure product that lets the exit rot has decided how it intends to keep you.
