Answers to common questions about Nodepick Cloud servers, billing, and sandbox features.
Traditional Cloud VPS providers often take several minutes to launch servers and bill in hourly or monthly blocks. Nodepick launches Linux virtual machines in under 15 seconds and bills by the second. You can manage servers directly through our web dashboard, API, CLI, or MCP tools.
AI coding agents need safe environments to install packages and execute code. Nodepick gives your agents temporary Linux virtual machines with root access. When your agent finishes a task, you can delete the machine immediately so nothing lingers.
Yes. Every Nodepick node runs its own Linux kernel with full root permissions. You can connect via SSH, install custom system packages, configure firewalls, and run Docker containers without container restrictions.
You only pay for the exact time your server runs. Billing starts when your server boots and stops the moment you delete it. There are no setup fees, minimum usage commitments, or cancellation charges.
Yes. You can assign dedicated public IPv4 addresses and configure ports for each server. This lets you host public websites, APIs, or connect directly over SSH from anywhere.
Currently, we do not backup data on the nodes. Backups are the responsibility of the customer. We will offer advanced backup options in the future.
