Self Hosted Project

We brainstormed and discussed all kinds of ideas as a team, dropping or postponing the ones we considered secondary, and eventually arrived at a clear vision for the product. We decided we needed automatic deployment, not just of an empty server, but of a server already configured with the VPN protocol the client needs, from a lineup we settled on for this iteration: WireGuard, OpenVPN, IKEv2, OpenConnect, Outline, VLESS+Reality, and Hiddify. We also wanted to add a comparison page to the site so users could easily understand which protocol fits their needs. We found providers, got the servers, and development started. The project is fully self funded, with developers working part time, and the first beta was ready by October 2025.

By September 2024 I had tried almost every commercial VPN solution on the market and was completely fed up with them . I switched to deploying my own VPN servers.
Even though I'm technical - it was a grind every time. Even with a script, something would go wrong and I'd have to fix it. At some point I thought: why not build a service where you pick a server in whatever location you need, grab a ready-made script, and just run it from the console.
I knew similar solutions existed, but I wanted to do it better:

The main idea was to make a VPN hub - so that a user who decided to get a server from us could conveniently do everything themselves and wouldn't need to crawl the internet for information, look through and compare guides on a dozen sites, and prompting a hallucinating AI 20 times only for it to say “oh, I forgot that there are thousands of constantly running bots on the internet that will constantly be trying to hack your server”.

By November I had assembled a team and we started discussing the vision and the possibilities of actually implementing this idea.
