Every developer building AI agents is paying three to five different providers. A language model API from one company. Compute from another. Search, storage, and tools from three more. Five bills. Five auth systems. Five points of failure.
Today we're launching hanzo.bot — one platform for building, deploying, and hosting AI agents at prices that undercut every major cloud provider.
The Pricing
| Plan | Specs | Price | vs DigitalOcean | vs AWS Lightsail |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Starter | 1 vCPU, 1 GB RAM, 20 GB SSD | $5/mo (free credit) | $6/mo | $5/mo |
| Builder | 2 vCPU, 2 GB RAM, 40 GB SSD | $10/mo | $18/mo (44% less) | $10/mo |
| Dev | 2 vCPU, 8 GB RAM, 25 GB SSD | $15/mo | $24/mo for 4 GB (38% less + 2x RAM) | $44/mo (66% less) |
| Pro | 2 ded vCPU, 8 GB RAM, 80 GB SSD | $25/mo | $40/mo for 4 GB (38% less + 2x RAM) | $44/mo (43% less) |
| Turbo | 4 vCPU, 16 GB RAM, 160 GB SSD | $39/mo | $48/mo for 8 GB (19% less + 2x RAM) | $84/mo (54% less) |
New accounts get a $5 credit, making the Starter tier effectively free for your first month.
Every plan includes DDoS protection, automated backups, IPv4/IPv6, and — critically — zero egress fees. Unlike AWS ($0.09/GB), GCP ($0.12/GB), and Azure that charge for outbound bandwidth, Hanzo charges nothing within generous transfer limits.
Built for Bots, Not Just VMs
Hanzo Bot isn't a rebranded VPS. It's purpose-built for AI agent workloads:
Integrated AI Gateway — Call any of 100+ models without separate API accounts. GPT-5, Claude Opus, Gemini, DeepSeek, Llama 4, or our 14 proprietary Zen models — all through one endpoint, one key.
Built-in Tools — Web search at $0.005/query. Code interpreter at $0.03/min. File storage at $0.20/GB/mo. Speech-to-text at $0.0009/min — 85% cheaper than OpenAI Whisper.
GPU On-Demand — Spin up H100 GPUs at $3.48/hr for ML inference. That's 72% cheaper than AWS. Fine-tune models or run local inference for latency-sensitive agent loops.
Scale to Enterprise — 11 compute tiers up to 96 vCPU / 384 GB RAM / 1.9 TB SSD for agent swarms and fleet management. The Ultra tier supports up to 1,000 VMs under a single account.
The Dev Plan: Our Loss Leader
The Dev plan at $15/month is intentionally aggressive. Two vCPUs, 8 GB RAM, 25 GB SSD, 3 TB transfer. DigitalOcean's closest equivalent gives you half the RAM for 60% more money.
We're betting that developers who start with a $15 Dev plan will scale into our $219–$3,999 dedicated tiers as their agents find product-market fit.
