Built for always-on Hermes hosting

Fluence provides what you need to run Hermes AI agents reliably to stay online, remember context, schedule work, and connect to the model provider you choose.

Always-on execution

Always-on execution

Run Hermes as a persistent process without depending on a local machine.

Automations & subagents

Keep background workloads like scheduled cron jobs and parallel subagents budgetable.

Start from $9 per month

Give your Hermes AI agent a dedicated server built for steady, efficient uptime.

One architecture for Hermes AI agents

Keep your Hermes always-on agents cost-efficient by hosting on a persistent dedicated virtual server while model execution remains separated.

Hermes on Virtual Servers

Hermes runtime, gateway/API, cron, subagents, memory files, searchable SQLite sessions, skills, and tools run on Fluence.

Connects externally

Connect Hermes to model APIs, local LLM endpoints, messaging apps, memory providers, external APIs, browsers, and web tools.

Fluence Console, deploy virtual servers instantly, powered by Fluence decentralized cloud platform

Hermes AI on Fluence vs. a local machine

While a local machine (e.g., Mac mini) can work well for some use cases, persistent agents like Hermes need uptime, remote access, public endpoints, and predictable costs.

Key factor

Fluence

Local machine

24/7 availability

Low predictable daily billing

Depends on device uptime, local network, and home power 

Remote access

Suitable for gateways and messaging integrations

More manual setup for remote access

Operational setup

Siloed away from your personal environment

No separation between your local device and workflows

Scaling path

Flexibility of provisioning larger servers

Requires hardware upgrades

Best fit

Production, shared, or always-on deployments

Personal testing, prototypes, or temporary setups

What you can build with Hermes on Fluence

Personal research companion

Use Hermes to search, summarize, retain useful context, and produce recurring research updates from a server-based agent.

Long-term coding assistant

Host Hermes as a persistent code-review or engineering assistant that can remember project preferences and create reusable skills for recurring tasks.

Home automation orchestrator

Connect Hermes to Home Assistant-style workflows and scheduled tasks so it can trigger routines, send updates, and coordinate automations.

Parallel task coordinator

Use Hermes subagents to split independent research, build, or evaluation tasks into parallel workstreams, then summarize outputs back to the main agent.

A global marketplace of compute

Find the nearest and most cost-efficient CPU and GPU resources your agents need from top-tier providers across the globe, unified in one console.
