Host the apps your AI agents build — running 24/7, even when your computer is off.
Your AI agent built it on your laptop. Portfork keeps it running — 24/7, even when your computer is off. Portfork Cloud runs each app in an isolated microVM that scales to zero between runs, with Open Source Portfork as the self-hosted foundation.

-
01.
They die when you close the lid
Each app your agents build lives at localhost. Shut your laptop and they're gone — no URL to share, no uptime, no way for anyone else to reach them.
An app that only runs while your machine is awake is a demo, not a deployment.
-
02.
Deploying each one is a project
Containers, a host, networking, secrets, scaling — standing up real infrastructure for every one-shot app is more work than the agent spent building it.
-
03.
Idle apps still cost you
Most agent-built apps run a few times a day. Leave a server up around the clock for each and you pay full price for capacity that mostly sits idle.
Place an app. It runs. It scales to zero.
-
01
Place your app
Point Portfork at the app your agent built. It packages the artifact and places it — locally on Open Source Portfork, or on Portfork Cloud.
portfork deploy ./app

02
Runs 24/7 in an isolated microVM
On Portfork Cloud the app runs in its own hardware-isolated microVM with a stable URL — staying up around the clock, even with your computer off.

Scales to zero · pay per node tier
Between runs the app scales to zero, so idle apps cost nothing. You pay for the node tier that fits your fleet — not for capacity you never use.
portfork tier
Your agents' apps, always on.
Portfork takes the apps your agents build and runs them as real, reachable services — in isolated microVMs that scale to zero between runs. Open Source Portfork hosts them on your own machine; Portfork Cloud hosts them 24/7, even when your computer is off.
- 01
24/7 hosting
Push the app your agent built and Portfork keeps it running around the clock — with a stable URL, even when your computer is off.
- 02
Scales to zero
Apps wake on the first request and scale to zero between runs. You pay for the node tier that fits, not for idle capacity that sits unused.
- 03
Per-user isolated microVMs
On Portfork Cloud, each app runs in its own hardware-isolated microVM. No shared runtime, no noisy neighbors — strong boundaries by default.
- 04
Scheduled & agentic jobs
Run cron-style jobs and agent-triggered tasks on a schedule. They fire on Portfork Cloud with your laptop closed — no machine to keep awake.
- 05
Hybrid local & cloud placement
Run an app on your own machine with Open Source Portfork, or push the same artifact to Portfork Cloud. One runtime, one workflow — no rewrite to ship.
- 06
Agent-controllable via MCP
Portfork exposes a dashboard, a CLI, and an MCP server. Your agents can deploy, inspect, and manage their own apps without leaving the loop.
- 07
Bring your own LLM
Hosted apps use your own model access — an API key or a `claude setup-token` subscription. No markup on inference, no model lock-in.
Isolated by design.
-
01
microVM isolation
Every app on Portfork Cloud runs in its own hardware-isolated microVM — a real virtualization boundary, not a shared container runtime.
-
02
Per-tenant separation
Your nodes and apps are scoped to your account. One tenant's apps can never see or reach another's — separation is enforced at the platform.
-
03
Secrets in AWS
App secrets are stored encrypted in AWS and injected into the microVM at runtime. They are never baked into artifacts or written to logs.
