Agentless VPS Control Plane ( Built in Rust Btw)

A modern, local-first control plane for VPS management.

Manage servers, Docker containers, services, files, and reverse proxies through a premium desktop experience — powered entirely by SSH.

Vessel is a desktop-native control plane for managing Linux servers through standard SSH.

Unlike traditional panels such as cPanel, Plesk, or aaPanel, Vessel installs nothing on your VPS.

Your machine remains exactly as it was—Vessel simply connects securely through SSH and gives you a modern interface for operating it.

🔒 Local First

Your credentials never leave your computer.

SSH keys and secrets are stored using native operating-system secure storage:

Traditional hosting panels consume RAM, CPU, storage, and expose additional services.

The result is a fast, lightweight desktop experience with modern glassmorphic design principles.
