Hosted AI Agent Platform — Future Project Candidate

Status: Future Projects — Reference & Concept Saved: 2026-08-14 Category: Productize / Hosted Agent Offering Owner: IT Pro Partner (Sho'Nuff) Source: https://agentthread.ai/ (spotted by Germaine 2026-08-14)


What it is

AgentThread is Hermes (Nous Research's open-source agent — the same engine this box runs) repackaged as a hosted, multiplayer SaaS. Their own tagline: "Hermes, now multiplayer and hosted."

  • Each "space" is a real Linux container running a full Hermes instance — full shell, own files, own URL.
  • Discord-style chat + a live site-preview panel + instant deploy to a public URL (reddit.agentthread.ai in their demo).
  • Bring your own Claude Code / Codex / local Hermes; own API keys; per-space credit tracking.
  • $100 of model credits free to start, nothing to install.
  • Model listed as "GPT-5.6 Luna" (unverified — not yet investigated).

Why it matters to ITPP

  1. Validation — the open-source agent we self-host is now a launched SaaS. Proves "hosted agent" has a paying market.
  2. The moat is hosting + UX + billing, not the agent — the agent is MIT/free. We already run the same engine on netcup with our own keys.
  3. Obstacles-as-products — this is the exact shape of an "each client gets their own AI ops agent" offering.

Product angle (if we build it)

  • Managed "AI ops agent per client": each client/space gets a hosted Hermes container, chat UI, live URL, and a credit cap.
  • White-label, billed per-space, with baked-in budget management — we already have the LiteLLM virtual-key infra for per-tenant cost attribution.
  • Reuse: Hermes (open source), LiteLLM/admin-ai, netcup/app3 hosting, Wasabi backup pipeline, central auth.

Pricing pull (2026-08-14)

  • No public pricing page. /pricing and / serve the same landing page.
  • Only public number: "$100 of model credits on the house" + "Start building, free."
  • Tiers appear gated behind signup. Not yet investigated.

Open Questions

  1. Actual pricing tiers (behind signup).
  2. What is "GPT-5.6 Luna" — a Nous model or a hosted provider layer?
  3. Self-hosted cost-per-client comparison: our netcup + own keys vs. their markup.
