Sound familiar?

If your cloud bill hurts to read, you're in the right place.

The bill comes in 30% higher than you budgeted.

Per-hour rounding tax. Egress fees. Reserved-instance lock-in you can't get out of when the workload changes.

Shared vCPU, noisy-neighbour throttle.

Your 4-vCPU instance shares a die with three other tenants. Bursts vanish at the moment you need them.

Tier-1 support replies in 4 hours with a script.

Your incident is at minute 12 and the ticket comes back asking for the trace ID you already pasted in line one.

What you get

Production cloud,
without the complexity

Bare-metal NVMe, not oversold slices

1 vCPU is a real vCPU — dedicated, not a fractional slice of someone else's noisy neighbour. Same goes for RAM and disk.

Per-minute billing, no surprise invoice

Bill resets each minute — no per-hour rounding tax. Cancel any minute. No reserved-instance lock-in. The invoice on the 1st matches the dashboard on the 31st.

Browser SSH, no agent install

Open a terminal inside the portal. Works on an iPad. No key required for quick fixes — your account auth is enough.

Free signup credit, cancel anytime

No card required upfront. Try the platform on a real workload for ~21 days on the smallest plan. We don't ask why if you leave.

The honest comparison

Where we win,

We put the rows where we lose right next to the ones where we win. If you need Mumbai today or Lambda functions, AWS is the right answer for you and we'll tell you that on the call.

FAQ

The 12 questions
every CFO asks first

Where are the servers located?+

Hetzner bare-metal in Helsinki, Finland (EU West, GDPR-compliant ISO 27001 data center). Real dedicated NVMe hardware — not virtual oversold slices. Mumbai region (dedicated OVH hardware) ships Q3 2026; US East is on the roadmap.

How does pricing compare to AWS / DigitalOcean / Linode?+

About 35% cheaper than AWS for the m-class workhorse SKUs, comparable to DigitalOcean and Linode on raw price but with bare-metal NVMe instead of shared VPS. We published a line-by-line AWS comparison at /docs/comparison/aws — including the SKUs where we lose to AWS so you can decide before signing up.

Can I pay in USD or EUR?+

Today our pricing is published in INR with INR settlement via Razorpay. We accept international cards (which auto-convert at your bank's rate). USD- and EUR-denominated annual contracts are available for enterprise customers — email [email protected].

Can I migrate from AWS, DigitalOcean, or Linode?+

Yes. IAM-style access keys, S3-compatible object storage, standard Linux VMs that accept rsync, scp, or any container migration workflow. Full runbook at /docs/guides/migrate-from-aws.

What's your SLA?+

99.5% on compute today, written into the MSA. We're single-host until our 2nd box lands — at that point we move to 99.9% with multi-AZ. We tell prospects this upfront because we'd rather lose a deal than miss an SLA.

What happens if CloudNx goes out of business?+

Your data sits on standard NVMe with Proxmox. You can export a qcow2 image of any VM anytime and import it to any other cloud in under two hours. We'd help with the migration if it ever came to that.

Is there a free tier?+

Free signup credit (equivalent to ~21 days on the smallest paid plan, ~₹699/mo). No card required upfront. Beyond that, per-minute billing means you only pay for what you actually run.

How do payments work?+

Razorpay handles all transactions — supports international and Indian credit cards, UPI (for Indian customers), net banking, and SEPA for European customers via partner gateways. Autopay supported across all methods so VMs never stop because a top-up was forgotten.

What's the difference between prepaid and postpaid?+

Prepaid (default): wallet balance, autopay top-up, never any surprise bills. Postpaid (whitelisted): we invoice at month-end up to your credit line. Postpaid is for established customers with consistent monthly spend — talk to us if you want it.

Who can I email if something breaks?+

[email protected] — replies from a human, <4h on business hours (UTC+5:30). Postpaid customers get a dedicated escalation channel. We're small. We answer email.

I'm an Indian-incorporated company — will I get a GST tax invoice?+

Yes — every top-up generates an Indian-entity tax invoice with your GSTIN, IRN, and a downloadable PDF. Your CA can file it directly. UPI under ₹2,000 has 0% MDR.

I'm a European / US company — do you have local tax invoices?+

Today our primary invoice format is the Indian GST tax invoice. We can issue a basic invoice in USD or EUR on request that satisfies most international accounting workflows. Formal VAT MOSS (EU) registration and US sales-tax handling are on the roadmap as customer demand emerges.

Stop paying for cloud in the wrong currency.
