# meraGPT

> Managed hosting for the open-source Hermes Agent (Nous Research). $9.99/month gets you a 24/7 cloud VM with Hermes pre-installed and configured. You bring your own LLM API keys (OpenAI, Anthropic, OpenRouter, or any compatible endpoint), we run the box.

meraGPT is for developers who want a personal AI agent that lives on a real always-on VM rather than in a chat tab. Your Hermes Agent has its own filesystem, can run scheduled jobs, install plugins from GitHub, and connect to messaging gateways like Telegram, Slack, and Discord. We do not see your conversations and we do not mark up LLM token usage.
