No LLM markup. Cancel any time. Provisioned in about three minutes.
§ 01
What’s in the box
Here is exactly what seven dollars a month gets you. A real machine, the software already set up on it, and a way to reach it from anywhere.
A machine that runs only your agent
A whole box to yourself. No shared CPU, no per-message quota.Hermes installed and kept running
Set up before you log in. We handle updates, restarts and uptime.A URL to reach it
Yours atapp.meragpt.com/u/<handle>, real HTTPS, any browser.Whatever LLM you want behind it
OpenAI, Anthropic, OpenRouter, or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint. Your key stays on your box.No markup on tokens
You pay your provider their price, directly. Our $7 never changes.
§ 02
Sign up and watch it come online
There is nothing to install and no terminal to open. If you can sign up for a website, you can have a personal agent running in about three minutes, most of which is just us setting up your box.

Is this for you?
meraGPT isn’t for everyone. Saying so up front saves you a weekend and us a refund.
→ for you if
- +You want a personal agent that keeps running when your laptop sleeps.
- +You can grab an API key from OpenAI, Anthropic or OpenRouter and paste it into a box.
- +You want an agent that reaches you on Telegram, Slack or Signal, not just a web app.
- +You’d rather pay $7 than babysit a Linux server.
→ not for you if
- ×You want token costs bundled in. We charge for the box; your provider charges for tokens.
- ×You need a shared team agent. v1 is one user, one box.
- ×You need a GPU to fine-tune or host your own model. This box doesn’t have one.
- ×You expect root access. It’s a managed appliance, not a server you run.
- ×You plan to mine crypto or host illegal content. We deprovision, no refund.
§ 04

About what the box costs us, plus enough to keep the service running. If you came here looking for a pricing table, this isn’t that kind of product.
Prices may change later. If they do, existing subscribers get 30 days’ notice and can cancel before any rise.

§ 05
Questions people ask.
Can I cancel any time?
- Yes. One click in the dashboard. Your box keeps running until the end of the billing period, then it’s deprovisioned. We don’t refund unused time. The trade: you get the full month you paid for, no pro-rata gotcha mid-cycle.
Do you read my conversations?
- No. Your conversations and memories stay on your box, in Hermes’s own storage. We can log in to fix broken services or respond to abuse reports, but we don’t pipe your data anywhere and our control plane has no way to fetch your files. If that isn’t enough trust, don’t paste an API key right away. Look around the box first.
What if Hermes Agent has a security issue?
- We track Nous Research’s release feed. Routine updates land on Sunday nights with a brief restart. Security patches we apply within 24 hours of upstream disclosure. If a fix needs you in the loop (e.g. a credential rotation), we’ll get in touch before doing anything.
Can I get root access to the box?
- Not by default. The box is a managed appliance, locked down to our operator keys so we can guarantee its behaviour. We’re building an opt-in “tinkerer mode” that hands you a per-user SSH key with a clear you-break-it-you-own-it disclaimer. Coming soon.
What model should I start with?
- For most people:
openrouter/google/gemini-2.5-flash-lite. About $0.10 per million input tokens, fast, more than capable enough for a personal agent. If you already have an Anthropic key,anthropic/claude-haiku-4.5is great too. Switch any time from the Hermes dashboard with/model. What happens to my data when I cancel?
- It gets destroyed with the box at the end of your billing period. Hermes has a
/backupcommand that exports your memories, skills and session logs as a zip. Run it before you cancel if you want to keep them. We don’t keep copies on our side. What if my LLM bill goes crazy?
- It can’t go through us. Your key, your provider’s billing limits. Set per-request and monthly caps in your provider’s dashboard. The $7 we charge is the only number on our side.
Why Hermes Agent specifically?
- We tried a few. Hermes had the cleanest install, real persistent memory, a working messaging gateway, MIT license, and Nous Research ships actual updates. We didn’t want to half-support five different agents, so we picked the one we’d use ourselves.
What’s the fair-use policy?
- Run a personal agent. Don’t mine crypto, scan for vulnerabilities, host illegal content, send spam, or do anything that gets us a complaint. We monitor for the obvious cases (CPU at 100% for days, traffic spikes that don’t look human). If something looks off we’ll get in touch before acting. Repeat or egregious abuse gets the box deprovisioned without refund.
§ 06
Run your own agent.
$7 a month, and a few minutes from signing up. Your own machine, your own keys, your own memory. Leave whenever you like and take your data with you.
