Clovie Docs

Get started

Choose SaaS or self-hosted

Use Clovie as a hosted service, or run it in your own cloud account, data center or an isolated network.

Clovie has the same features wherever it runs. What changes is who operates it and where your data lives. You can start with one option and move to another later.

Clovie SaaS

We run Clovie for you. You sign in, connect your agents to the hosted gateway and start working. Upgrades, scaling, backups and monitoring are our job. Your organization's data is kept separate from every other customer's. Clovie SaaS stores data in the United States.

Choose SaaS if you want to be up and running today and do not have a rule that AI traffic must stay inside your own network.

Your cloud account (VPC)

You run Clovie inside your own AWS, Google Cloud or Azure account, next to your agents. Agent traffic, audit records and cost data never leave your network. Clovie provides the software, a signed licence and upgrades; your team operates the install. Nothing in the install needs to call back to Clovie.

Choose this option if your security or data-residency rules require AI traffic and records to stay in your own cloud account.

Your data center (on-premises)

You run Clovie on your own hardware or private cloud, on Kubernetes or on a single host. It works with the databases, secret stores and identity providers you already use.

Choose this option if your agents and models run in your own data center.

Isolated networks (air-gapped)

You run Clovie in a network with no internet access. Software updates are delivered as images you import into your own registry, and usage reports go back to Clovie as files.

Choose this option for classified, regulated or otherwise isolated environments.
