SSH heroics are not a business model

Every indie ends up here.

One app becomes three. Three servers become six. Then you spend nights SSH’ing into boxes like it’s 2009, re-running the same commands, hunting logs, and praying you remember which machine holds what.

Here’s the deal: the terminal is great - until it becomes your whole job.

VPS Commander (vps-commander.com) aims at that exact pain. It gives you a browser-based control layer for your servers so you can do the work fast, repeat it safely, and keep moving.

What it does (and why you’ll care)

Manage servers without the terminal tax

You connect to your VPS over SSH, but you don’t have to live inside a local terminal app. You get a multi-server dashboard, real-time command runs, and a UI that keeps you out of tab hell.

Stop repeating yourself

VPS Commander ships with 400+ pre-built workflows for common server tasks. That matters because most “server work” is the same 20 jobs on loop: updates, services, deploy steps, permissions, users, backups, and cleanup.

Run the workflow. Get on with your day.

Files, keys, and logs in one place

You get a file manager for upload/download/edit, plus secure SSH key storage so you don’t scatter keys across laptops and teammates. You can also view and analyze logs when things go sideways.

It gets worse: most outages don’t come from hard problems. They come from small, dumb mistakes made at 2 a.m.

VPS Commander reduces that surface area by giving you repeatable actions and a single place to operate.

A command assistant when you’re rusty

There’s an AI-powered command assistant built in. Use it like a guardrail when you haven’t touched a box in weeks and don’t want to Google “how to restart nginx” for the thousandth time.

Who it’s for

Solo founders running production on a handful of VPS instances
Devs juggling client servers and wanting fewer “oops” moments
Small teams that need basic ops control without spinning up heavy tooling

Pricing starts low, with a 5-day free trial mentioned on-site, so you can test it on a real box before you commit.

The pitch is simple: fewer late-night terminal marathons. More shipping.
