Platform Overview
Ink is infrastructure for AI agents and developers — deploy, observe, and manage production applications through the CLI, Skills, MCP, or dashboard
Ink is infrastructure designed for AI agents and developers. Core operations — deploying services, deploying templates, managing DNS, reading logs, viewing metrics, and managing workspaces — are available through agent-operable interfaces: the CLI, Agent Skills, and MCP. The dashboard remains available for setup, billing, inspection, and manual operations.
Your agent is the operator. You give it a prompt. It ships.
What makes Ink different
Traditional cloud platforms were built for humans clicking dashboards or writing YAML. Ink was built from the ground up so AI agents are the primary interface.
| Traditional PaaS | Ink |
|---|---|
| You write config files | Your agent configures everything |
| You click deploy buttons | Your agent calls service_create or runs ink deploy |
| You read dashboards | Your agent calls service_get or runs ink status |
| You manage DNS in a web UI | Your agent calls dns_add_record or runs ink dns add |
| You provision databases manually | Your agent calls template_deploy or runs ink template deploy |
Core capabilities
Deploy any stack — 30+ languages and frameworks auto-detected. Node.js, Python, Go, Rust, Ruby, Java, PHP, Elixir, and more. Or bring your own Dockerfile.
Observe everything — CPU, memory, and network metrics. Build logs and runtime logs. Your agent reads them directly to debug issues.
Manage domains — Default *.deployink.com URLs instantly. Delegate your own DNS zones for custom domains with automatic TLS certificates.
Provision databases — PostgreSQL, Redis, MySQL, and MongoDB databases via templates. Any other containerized database can run as a normal service with an internal TCP port, env vars, and a persistent volume.
Secure by default — Every workload runs in a gVisor sandbox. Environment variables are encrypted at rest. Network policies enforce tenant isolation.
