By default, we retain user data for up to 31 days (https://elfhosted.com/how-to/delete-your-data/), to allow user to experiment with new apps, adjust subscriptions, etc. Usually, data ages out, but if you'd like to remove all data immediately, including your ElfHosted account itself, this video illustrates the process.

A private family chat with every conversation end-to-end encrypted from the start, so we can't read your messages or photos. Like any chat server, it only knows who's in which chat and when, so it can deliver them.

Your family group chat is invite only: each person gets their own one-time code that expires after seven days. Everyone joins with a free Matrix app like FluffyChat or Element, on iPhone, Android, a tablet or in the browser. Want the cousins' family chat to join in? Ask Sam to add their server to your trusted list.

ElfHosted runs, updates and backs up your server, so nobody in the family has to. Try it for seven days; your own domain is an optional add-on. Family Chat runs Matrix, an open chat standard, and isn't affiliated with or endorsed by the Matrix.org Foundation.

AIOStreams, AIOMetadata and Remux are brilliant tools for tinkerers. JellyStreams is the household layer on top: a profile for everyone, content limits by what's in a film (not just its rating), and an ask-a-parent request when something's over the limit.

Grown-ups get a daily screen time budget with a warning before it runs out, a weekly note of what everyone watched, and recommendations that stay per person. It works in Infuse, Swiftfin and the other Jellyfin apps, on the telly, tablets and phones.

Family streaming, sorted: JellyStreams comes with the AIOMagic and Stremio Addons bundles, hosted by ElfHosted.

If your apps load slowly from where you live, move to a closer datacenter. Open My Account on the ElfHosted store, then Datacenter. Under All datacenters, click "Test all &amp; recommend fastest": the datacenter speed test measures each one and marks the quickest as recommended, for faster app loading.

Before you migrate datacenters, read the "Move to a different datacenter" box: your apps are turned off in the current datacenter and recreated in the new one, restored from your latest backup, with about 10 to 15 minutes of downtime. Tick both boxes: apps are backed up offsite every 24 hours, so run Global Commands, Backup Offsite in ElfBot if you've changed things since, and export all environment variables there too. The recommended datacenter is preselected as the target: click "Move my apps" and confirm.

Afterwards your app addresses end in the new domain, so update any links you've saved, and import your environment variables in ElfBot. You can move back at any time: within 7 days your apps come back exactly as they were. The full steps for an ElfHosted datacenter move are in the docs. Nervous about the move? Talk to a person first: the ElfHosted team is on Discord around the clock, across time zones, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server.

Part four of the Household Tech Saga. Robin heads to Barry's for a week with no laptop. By day three the photo library has stopped, the password vault won't open and Milo's castle has vanished: home server downtime, with nobody at home who knows how it works.

That's the real cost of running your own home server for a family. It isn't the computer; it's the time, and being the family tech support who's on call for your own house, even on holiday. Maya delivers the verdict. Self-hosting time adds up, and it usually lands on one person.

The Household Tech Saga is a short animated series from ElfHosted about one family's tech: subscription soup, a server at home, the upkeep, and finding the elves. Each episode stands on its own; watch them in order in the playlist on our channel. When the elves do arrive, and Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, can't help, our team is on Discord around the clock, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server.

To change your billing term, open My Account on the ElfHosted store, then Subscriptions, and open your subscription. Click "Change billing term": the button shows your current term, for example "currently monthly".

Pick a term from the Billing term list. Every option shows its price and its billing term discount before it goes in your cart: longer terms are discounted up to 20%, and the saving shown for your product is the one that applies. Member rates don't stack with it: the best single discount wins. Annual billing and other longer terms are billed up front and renew at the same term.

The new term starts at your next renewal, and the rest of the current month is prorated today. Add it to your cart and check out. You can still cancel any time and keep access to the end of what you've paid for. Your ElfHosted billing term is always under My Account, then Subscriptions. Billing question you'd rather ask a person? The ElfHosted team is on Discord around the clock, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server.

ElfBot is your control panel for every ElfHosted app. Open your apps dashboard, and you'll find it under Tools. Every app has a card. To set an environment variable, click the app's "..." button, then Environment Variables. Paste the line from the app's docs into Quick Paste (for Grocy's currency, GROCY_CURRENCY with your own currency code), click Add to Form, then Save. Saving restarts the app by itself, so the new setting is live a moment later.

To restart an app, click Restart on its card: it restarts straight away, with no confirmation. Force Restart, under Advanced, is for an app that's properly stuck. To check an app's usage, look at the CPU and memory on its card, or open Metrics for charts over the last hour, 6 hours or 24 hours.

Sam, the assistant in your dashboard, can do a lot of this too: he checks CPU, memory and storage usage, restarts apps, and sets the variables an app's docs list for you, but only once you confirm. And if you'd rather talk to a person, the ElfHosted team is on Discord around the clock, across time zones, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server.

Start with Sam, the assistant in your ElfHosted dashboard. Tap Ask Sam and ask in plain words, in any language. Unlike a general chatbot, he looks at your actual apps instead of guessing, and he can fix things too, like restarting an app. Nothing changes until you confirm it.

Rather talk to a person? The ElfHosted team is on Discord around the clock, across time zones, in a professional, family-friendly, carefully moderated server. Open discord.elfhosted.com, accept the invite, and read the welcome and rules prompts so the support channels appear. For quick answers, ask the helpful humans in #elf-friends, or ask the AI in #elf-ai-rtfm to search the docs. For private support, open a ticket in #elf-help: that one takes a little patience. If a new app hasn't appeared, bring your order number.

Before you post, open Sam and press "Info for support". Tell him what's going wrong in one message: he runs the checks, often names the cause on the spot, and gives you a summary to paste into your ticket, so the team can pick it up straight away. The full list of support options is on the support page in the docs.

ElfHosted takes daily app backups: every app is backed up once a day, and there are two ways to restore one. To do it yourself, open your ElfBot dashboard, find the app's card, and click the "..." button. Choose Advanced, then Restore Backup. The dialog warns you that the app goes back to how it was on the date you pick, and whatever was added since is lost. Under "Choose a backup", pick a date: only backups that exist are listed, with their sizes. Type the app's name to confirm, then click "Restore from" that date. The app restarts, so give it a minute or two.

Or ask Sam, the assistant in your dashboard, from wherever you are. Ask what backups an app has: Sam lists only the dates he can actually see in its backup folder. Pick one, and he shows a card that says what will be replaced. Type the app's name and tap "Yes, do it", and the app restores from that date in a couple of minutes.

Picked the wrong date? Either way, a snapshot of the app is taken first and shows up in the list, so you can undo a restore by restoring that snapshot. Your media and cloud storage aren't part of these backups. And if you'd rather talk to a person, the ElfHosted team is on Discord around the clock, across time zones, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server.

Part five, the finale of The Photo Exodus. It's Nana's birthday, and Grandad is on the big telly: the pier, the summer they met, and the terrible jumper. Immich face search, Immich's own feature, finds him across the whole family photo library: the shoebox scans, the wedding album and the family's phones.

Robin is at the party with a second slice of cake. When the slideshow stalls, he asks Sam from his chair. Sam reads the logs and asks first; Robin taps Approve, Immich restarts, and the party carries on. Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, is tuned on our apps and the way we run them: he safely reads your actual logs, proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it. When Sam can't help, the ElfHosted team is on Discord around the clock, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server.

With hosted Immich, you bring your own storage and connect it; Immich is kept running and upgraded, and backed up daily with restores you can do yourself. Start with a 7-day trial. Immich is open source, the work of the Immich team; ElfHosted is not affiliated with the project. You can support Immich by buying it from the Immich team through the link below. The Photo Exodus is a short animated saga from ElfHosted about one family's photos: from full phones and scattered clouds to a NAS at home, and on to a photo library that runs itself.

Part four of The Family Realm. The Minecraft whitelist has become a war: one child with a PC account and a tablet account, Barry stuck at the door for an hour, and bedtime enforced by yelling up the stairs every school night. Robin is the bouncer, the referee and the alarm clock, and he still has a day job.

So Robin brings the world across to Minecraft for Families on ElfHosted. The parent panel shows who's playing and for how long, today and across the week. The server ships locked to the people you name, and anyone turned away shows up in the panel with a button to let them in. Bedtime has school-night and weekend hours: a warning in the game, then the world closes for everyone at once. That's parental controls for a Minecraft server for kids, without the yelling.

The world stays up day and night at a fixed address friends save once, backed up daily with restores you can do yourself, with Java and Bedrock players together (Minecraft crossplay: Geyser and Floodgate, installed for you) and nothing opened on your home network. When the family moves to ElfHosted, Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, is Robin's sidekick: tuned on our apps and the way we run them, he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it. When Sam can't help, the ElfHosted team is on Discord around the clock, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server. Start with a 7-day trial.

Part five, the finale of The Family Realm. It's Saturday and the family Minecraft server has the whole household in one world: Tess on the tablet, Milo's friend on the console, and Robin on the PC, building a wonky bridge. Minecraft crossplay works across them, and a note on Robin's phone says who's joined.

For a sleepover, Robin asks Sam to raise the view distance. Sam asks first; Robin taps Approve and goes back to his bridge. Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, is tuned on our apps and the way we run them: he safely reads your actual logs, proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it. When Sam can't help, the ElfHosted team is on Discord around the clock, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server.

Then bedtime: a warning in the game, and the world closes for everyone at once. That's parental controls on a Minecraft server for kids, and a dad who's asleep before midnight. Minecraft for Families is always on, backed up daily with restores you can do yourself, with nothing opened on your home network. Start with a 7-day trial. Paper, Geyser and Floodgate are open source; ElfHosted is not affiliated with Mojang, Microsoft, the Paper project or GeyserMC. Each player needs their own copy of the game.

Part six, the finale of the Household Tech Saga. The family still uses the same open-source apps on their phones, laptops and the family tablet, but the upkeep went to the elves. Robin is outside on a Saturday, in daylight: this is how you get your weekends back.

He still tinkers, because that's the fun part. With ElfHosted Flex he can try new apps, swap one in, and switch it off again when he's done; its data stays put. When Milo gets stuck, Robin asks Sam, the assistant in the ElfHosted dashboard, from the garden: Sam looks at the app, says what's wrong, and asks before restarting it. That's running your own apps without the upkeep, for the whole household.

Every app is kept running, updated and backed up daily, and you can restore a backup yourself. Almost every app and plan starts with a 7-day trial. The apps are open source; ElfHosted is not affiliated with their projects. The Household Tech Saga is a short animated series from ElfHosted about one family's tech: subscription soup, a server at home, the upkeep, and finding the elves. Each episode stands on its own; watch them in order in the playlist on our channel.

Why families need a password vault</video:title><video:description>Got a data breach email? Barry's one password opens his email and the family shopping, and Nana's passwords are on sticky notes.

Part one of The Password Reckoning. Barry gets a data breach email: his password turned up in a breach. It's the one password he uses on every site, including his email, his boat club and the family's shopping account, with Maya's card saved in it. That's password reuse, and it's how one breach reaches every account.

It isn't only Barry. Nana's passwords are on sticky notes by the front door, in alphabetical order. Tess resets her school password more often than she uses it. Robin knows the fix, a family password manager: one password vault the whole household shares, with a master password each. He just needs a free Sunday to set it up.

The Password Reckoning is a short animated saga from ElfHosted about one family's passwords: from one password used on every site and sticky notes by the front door, to a vault on the laptop behind the telly, and on to a family vault the elves run. Each part stands on its own; watch them in order in the playlist on our channel. When the family moves to ElfHosted, Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, is Robin's sidekick: tuned on our apps and the way we run them, he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it. When Sam can't help, the ElfHosted team is on Discord around the clock, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server.

Open-source apps, hosted and run for you</video:title><video:description>What is ElfHosted? We host popular open-source apps and keep them running for you: no hardware at home, nothing to install, backed up daily.

Photos in Immich, passwords in Vaultwarden, recipes in Mealie, a game server for the kids: you use the apps, and we keep them running and updated. The apps are made by their own open-source communities; we host them.

It's apps without a server: no hardware at home, nothing to install or update, and no ports to open. Each app gets a secure address on your own subdomain, behind your ElfHosted login, and your apps talk to each other inside your own stack. Every app is backed up daily, and you can pick a date and restore it yourself. With ElfHosted Flex you run lots of lightweight apps from the Flex collection and swap them whenever you like.

Stuck? Sam, the assistant in your ElfHosted dashboard, looks at your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it, and the docs are there whenever you want to dig in. Think of it as managed app hosting for households: running things yourself is a great hobby, and this is for when you'd rather just use the apps. Almost every app and plan starts with a 7-day trial. ElfHosted is not affiliated with the open-source projects it hosts. And when Sam can't sort it, real people from our team are on Discord around the clock, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server.

One hosted Vaultwarden for the whole family.

Part four, the finale of The Password Reckoning. A Vaultwarden security fix came out in the night, and Robin slept through it: keeping up with security fixes is the elves' job now. Tess's vault opens at school all week, Nana's phone fills in her passwords, and the whole family uses the official Bitwarden apps with hosted Vaultwarden: the household logins shared, everyone's own kept private. It's a family password manager with nothing at home to guard.

Then Barry tidies up the family logins and empties the bin. Robin asks Sam from the kitchen: Sam shows the backups he can see and asks first, Robin taps Approve, and the vault is restored to how it was last night, with a pancake in the other hand. Vaultwarden on ElfHosted is backed up daily, and you can restore a backup yourself from your dashboard, or ask Sam. A restore puts the whole vault back to the date you pick, so whatever was added since then is gone. Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, is Robin's sidekick: tuned on our apps and the way we run them, he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it. When Sam can't help, the ElfHosted team is on Discord around the clock, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server.

Your vault is encrypted on your own device before it's saved: we host it, but we can't read it. Hosted Vaultwarden is part of the ElfHosted Flex collection: a Flex plan runs several apps from the collection at once, and you swap which ones whenever you like. Every Flex plan starts with a 7-day trial. Vaultwarden is open source; ElfHosted is not affiliated with the Vaultwarden or Bitwarden projects. You can support Vaultwarden's developer through the link below. For the full tour, watch our Vaultwarden explainer.

Sam is the assistant that comes with every ElfHosted account, and he installs on your phone as an app, straight from the browser. On your phone, open Sam's own page: your ElfBot address with /sam on the end, and ask him something. Once he has answered, he offers to go on your home screen. On Android, tap "Add to home screen". On an iPhone, tap Share, then Add to Home Screen, then Add: on an iPhone, push notifications only work in the installed app.

Next, Sam asks if he should shout when something goes wrong. Tap "Yes, keep me posted" and allow notifications when your phone asks. Nothing buzzes until you say yes to an app: the first alert from any app is held, and Sam asks "Want alerts from these?" so you choose which apps can reach you. After that, when an app stops answering, your phone says it needs a look, and when it recovers, the good news replaces the warning.

Tap an alert and Sam opens with the question already written. Press send and he checks the app, reads its logs, tells you what went wrong, and can restart it once you confirm. Missed one? Recent alerts wait in Sam under "While you were away". And if you'd rather talk to a person, the ElfHosted team is on Discord around the clock, across time zones, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server.

Every ElfHosted account has an Apps page in My Account, right after Orders. Some plans include extra apps that start switched off; this is where you switch them on. An ElfHosted Flex plan runs a set number of apps at once from the Flex collection, and you choose which. To swap one, open My Account on the ElfHosted store, then Apps (it sits right after Orders). Your Flex section shows how many apps are running out of how many your plan includes.

Untick the apps you're not using, tick the ones you want, and click Save changes: the whole page saves in one go. Switching an app off stops it running, none of its data is deleted, and your bill doesn't change, so you can switch it back on any time. If a save would run more apps than your Flex plan includes, nothing is changed: switch something off first, or move to a bigger plan.

After saving, an email titled "Your ElfHosted apps have changed" lists what was switched on and off, and new apps start in a few minutes. Your ElfHosted Flex apps are all managed from that one page, and Sam can help if you get stuck. And if Sam can't help, real people from the ElfHosted team are on Discord around the clock, in a carefully moderated, family-friendly server.

A hosted budget app, synced to every device</video:title><video:description>Actual Budget is an envelope budgeting app. Hosted Actual Budget keeps your phone, computer and the web in sync, and stays up when your internet doesn't.

Run Actual Budget with ElfHosted: your ElfHosted server keeps your phone, your computer and the web in sync, and it lives on our servers, not a box in your cupboard, so your budget doesn't go down when your home internet does. Actual Budget itself is the work of the Actual community: an open-source budget app.

What is Actual Budget? A budget app built around envelope budgeting: money comes in, you split it into envelopes, and you see what's left in each. Switch on end-to-end encryption and your budget is locked with a key only you hold. Add Wallos from ElfHosted too, and your subscriptions get tracked alongside your everyday spending.

With hosted Actual Budget, we run the server for you, keep it updated, and give it a secure address your phone can reach from anywhere. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, sends a push alert if Actual Budget goes down (once you've said yes to its alerts), tells you why, and restarts it with your OK. When Sam can't help, our team is on Discord around the clock, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server. Actual Budget is part of the ElfHosted Flex collection: a Flex plan runs several apps from the collection at once, and you swap which ones whenever you like.

Share a trip by link; the rest stays private.

Run AdventureLog with ElfHosted, and you can share a trip by link: the family open it with no account, trips you haven't shared stay private, and nobody else can sign up. It needs two web addresses, one for the app and one for your photos, and we set both up, so you just sign in and start logging. AdventureLog itself is the work of the AdventureLog project: an open-source travel journal and trip planner.

What is AdventureLog? A travel journal and trip planner. Log each adventure with dates, notes, photos and a location, and it lands on a world map that colours in the countries and regions you have visited. Group adventures into trips with a plan for each day, and keep the bookings, links and notes beside the memories. Sign in first and change the starting password.

Hosted AIOStreams is your own private instance, kept running for you, with no rate limits.

Run AIOStreams with ElfHosted, and your own private instance is kept running, kept updated and given a secure address, so there's no Docker, VPS, domain or certificate for you to look after, and no computer at home that has to stay on. It's your own instance, not the shared public one, so there are no rate limits holding you back, and it works with the rest of your ElfHosted addons: pair it with AIOMetadata for tidy catalogues, or with JellyStreams to use it in Jellyfin apps.

What is AIOStreams? A Stremio addon manager: an addon of addons. Add the Stremio addons you already use, set your preferences once (languages, what your devices can play, sort order) and it presents them as one, laid out your way. AIOStreams is the work of Viren070 and the AIOStreams project.

Hosted AIOStreams starts with a 7-day trial. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. Stuck? Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks you before fixing it. And when you'd rather talk to a person, our team is on Discord around the clock, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server.

Hosted AIOMetadata comes with AI Search included and the provider keys handled.

Run AIOMetadata with ElfHosted: we run your private instance, keep it updated, handle the provider keys and pre-warm the cache for quick first loads, so there's no laptop at home to keep awake and no expired key leaving the covers blank. AI Search comes included, with no key to find: ask for films about lighthouses and it looks at what a film is about, not only its title. It sits in your ElfHosted stack beside AIOStreams, and its settings page opens behind your ElfHosted login.

What is AIOMetadata? A Stremio metadata addon for power users. It gathers descriptions, ratings and artwork (posters, backgrounds and logos) from several metadata providers, and you choose which provider leads for films, series and anime. Build your own Stremio catalogues, and connect your tracking account with a short code so your lists and watchlist turn up as catalogues. AIOMetadata is the work of cedya77 and the AIOMetadata project.

Hosted Audiobookshelf on ElfHosted has its own secure address, so the free phone apps connect from anywhere, with no port-forwarding and no computer at home to keep awake. We keep it running and updated, and put your ElfHosted login in front of the web page; the phone apps use Audiobookshelf's own accounts. Already keep your audiobooks in cloud storage? Connect it and Audiobookshelf reads them from there, or upload them directly.

What is Audiobookshelf? An open-source audiobook server and podcast app from the Audiobookshelf project, for the books you own. Upload them and it sorts them into a library, with covers, narrators, series and chapters. Everyone in the family gets their own login, so their place, bookmarks and listening history are theirs alone. Add Storyteller to the same ElfHosted stack for read-along books.

It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. If something goes wrong, Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it.

It saves a PDF, a screenshot and a copy of each, so a dead link never costs you the page.

Run ArchiveBox with ElfHosted, and your web archive has a secure address of its own, so it opens on your phone or laptop wherever you are, with no computer left on at home. We keep it running and updated. Web archives grow fast, so your snapshots go to cloud storage you connect, and the archive can grow as large as that storage allows. ArchiveBox itself is the work of the ArchiveBox project.

What is ArchiveBox? A personal web archive, for anyone who wants to save web pages they never want to lose to link rot: research, recipes, receipts, references and school projects. Give it a link and it saves permanent snapshots of the page: a PDF, a full-page screenshot, the HTML and a WARC web archive, with full-text search across all of it. Add links one at a time, in bulk, or import your browser bookmarks and history. Only you can see what you save, and sending pages to public archives stays off unless you turn it on.

Hosted ArchiveBox is new to ElfHosted and in early access. Start with a 7-day trial. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to.

Hosted Baby Buddy keeps one shared record ready at 3am, on any phone in the house.

Run Baby Buddy with ElfHosted, and it runs on our servers, not a computer in your house, so at three in the morning the record is just there, on any phone. Your ElfHosted login guards it in the browser, while the official Android app, Home Assistant and iOS Shortcuts still connect with a personal token. Baby Buddy itself is the work of the Baby Buddy project: an open-source baby tracker.

What is Baby Buddy? A baby tracker that logs a new baby's feeds, sleep, nappies and tummy time, with a dashboard showing the last of each and how long ago. It works as a feeding tracker, a baby sleep tracker and a diaper tracker, and partners, grandparents and babysitters get their own accounts and log to the same record.

With hosted Baby Buddy, we run it for you and keep it updated, on one dashboard with the rest of your ElfHosted apps. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to, and if something looks wrong, Sam checks your apps, tells you what's wrong and asks before fixing it.

Hosted on ElfHosted, it syncs from anywhere.

Run Baikal with ElfHosted, and it has its own secure address that your devices connect to directly, so the family's phones sync from home, school or the beach with no port-forwarding and no server at your house. Your dates and address book live on your own instance, not a big provider's cloud. Baikal itself is the work of the Baikal project: an open-source CalDAV server and CardDAV server.

What is Baikal? The plumbing behind calendar and contacts sync. Add an appointment on one device and it shows up on the others, with your address book kept in step the same way. It uses the open standards the built-in calendar and contacts apps on iOS, Android and macOS already speak, and desktop clients like Thunderbird connect too. Run separate calendars and address books for each person, and when a phone is lost or replaced, sign the new one in and every date and contact comes straight back.

With hosted Baikal, ElfHosted keeps it running and updated, beside your other apps on your ElfHosted dashboard.

Hosted on ElfHosted, it's ready on your phone.

Run Beaver Habit Tracker with ElfHosted: it comes with the secure address a home-screen install on your phone needs, your streaks live on our servers rather than on a Raspberry Pi or spare computer at home, and your ElfHosted login sits in front. We run it for you and keep it updated. Beaver Habit Tracker itself is the work of its open-source project and developer.

What is Beaver Habit Tracker? A deliberately minimal habit tracker: a clean daily grid, a tap to mark a habit done, and a streak that grows, with no goals to fail, by design. It works as a family habit tracker too: one instance for the household, and everyone keeps their own habit list and streaks.

Hosted Beaver Habit Tracker is part of the ElfHosted Flex collection: a Flex plan runs several apps from the collection at once, and you swap which ones whenever you like.

Hosted on ElfHosted, it watches from outside and tells you when a machine goes quiet.

Run Beszel with ElfHosted, and the hub runs away from your own servers, so it's still awake to tell you when one of them goes quiet. Agents connect out to the hub's own secure address, so there is no port to open or forward at home, from a tiny board computer to a cloud server. We run the hub for you, keep it updated, and put your ElfHosted login in front. Beszel itself is the work of the Beszel project.

What is Beszel? A lightweight server monitoring tool in two parts: a tiny agent on each machine, and a hub that collects CPU, memory, disk, network, temperatures and per-container stats, keeps the history, and alerts you when a system goes down or crosses a threshold you set. For homelab monitoring, send those alerts to ntfy, which runs on ElfHosted too.

Hosted Beszel is part of the ElfHosted Flex collection: a Flex plan runs several apps from the collection at once, and you swap which ones whenever you like. Every Flex plan starts with a 7-day trial. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. If something's not right, Sam checks your apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it.

Run Blinko with ElfHosted: it sits behind your ElfHosted login with nothing open to the wider internet, so your notes stay private, and it's there in your phone's browser, added to your home screen, the second a thought arrives. We run Blinko and its database for you, keep it updated, and back up your notes every day. Blinko itself is the work of the Blinko project.

What is Blinko? A note taking app built for quick notes. Type the thought and it lands as a Markdown card on your timeline, with tags and attachments, and nothing to file or name. A daily review brings older cards back, and if you connect an AI provider of your own, you can ask your notes a question in plain words. Claim it first: the first account you create runs it, and sign-ups close behind it. That account is separate from your ElfHosted login.

Hosted Blinko is part of the ElfHosted Flex collection: a Flex plan runs several apps from the collection at once, and you swap which ones whenever you like. Every Flex plan starts with a 7-day trial. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. Stuck? Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks you before fixing it. When Sam can't help, our team is on Discord around the clock, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server. Blinko is open source; ElfHosted is not affiliated with the Blinko project. You can support the project through the links below. It's one place for support for every app you run with us, handled by professionals, instead of a GitHub issue, docs that may be out of date, or yet another Discord per project. Unlike a generic chatbot, which guesses and overcomplicates, Sam is tuned on these apps and the way we run them: he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it.

Your own Bluesky server, always online</video:title><video:description>Bluesky PDS is the personal data server behind a Bluesky account. Hosted on ElfHosted, yours stays online at its own secure address, for tinkerers.

Run a Bluesky PDS with ElfHosted: it stays online around the clock at its own secure address, with no server or proxy for you to set up and nothing at home for anyone to unplug, and new PDS releases are rolled out in our daily maintenance. The PDS itself is the Bluesky team's reference server.

What is Bluesky PDS? A personal data server is the home for one or more accounts on the Bluesky network. It keeps your posts and data, and the AT Protocol relays carry them to everyone else. Running your own means your account is tied to your domain and your server, not locked to a single provider: use a domain you own as your handle, confirmed with a DNS record, and keep your media in your own object storage, so it's already in place if you ever move.

Hosted Bluesky PDS is one for tinkerers, and it's experimental on ElfHosted: setup uses environment variables and you bring your own email sending; we keep it running, reachable, backed up and secure, and how you use it is up to you. Start with a 7-day trial. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. Stuck? Ask Sam, the assistant that comes with your ElfHosted account: he checks that your PDS is running, reads its logs, and restarts it if you say so. And when you'd rather talk to a person, our team is on Discord around the clock, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server. ElfHosted is not affiliated with Bluesky. It's one place for support for every app you run with us, handled by professionals, instead of a GitHub issue, docs that may be out of date, or yet another Discord per project. Unlike a generic chatbot, which guesses and overcomplicates, Sam is tuned on these apps and the way we run them: he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it.

A knowledge base organised like a bookshelf</video:title><video:description>BookStack is a knowledge base and wiki organised like a bookshelf, for households, teams and anyone whose know-how lives in someone's head.

Run BookStack with ElfHosted: we run it for you, database included, back it up every night, keep it updated, and give it a secure address, so the house manual still works when the person who set it up is on a plane. It starts behind your ElfHosted login, so only you can reach it. BookStack itself is the work of the BookStack project: an open-source documentation wiki.

What is BookStack? A knowledge base built on a structure everyone already understands: shelves hold books, books hold chapters, and chapters hold pages. Write in a visual editor that works like a word processor, or in Markdown; search finds any word on any page, and every page keeps its history so you can roll it back. Use it for the house manual, a team handbook, a homelab runbook or a game world's lore, and paste in the notes you already have.

When you're ready to share hosted BookStack with people who don't have an ElfHosted account, one switch in ElfBot opens it up and lets BookStack's own logins and permissions take over, set per shelf, book, chapter or page. BookStack is part of the ElfHosted Flex collection: a Flex plan runs several apps from the collection at once, and you swap which ones whenever you like. Every Flex plan starts with a 7-day trial. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, sends a push alert if BookStack goes down (once you've said yes to its alerts), tells you why, and restarts it with your OK. If Sam can't help, the ElfHosted team is on Discord around the clock, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server.

Hosted Calibre-Web on ElfHosted watches the ingest folder around the clock on our servers, so there's no computer at home left switched on. It has its own secure address, so every e-reader in the family reaches it from anywhere, with no port-forwarding. We run it for you, keep it updated, and put your ElfHosted login in front of the page.

What is Calibre-Web? An ebook library in your browser: browse, read and manage your books with no Calibre desktop app to install. ElfHosted runs Calibre-Web Automated, the Calibre-Web-Automated project's fork that adds automatic imports and conversions: drop new books into the ingest folder, or switch on uploads, and they're added to the library on their own, converted as they arrive if you ask it to. Send a book to a Kindle by email, or browse the library from a Kobo over OPDS. Everyone gets their own login, access and reading progress. It's an ebook server, and it doesn't include any books: bring your own.

It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. If something goes wrong, Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it.

Hosted on ElfHosted, your workspace follows you.

Run code-server with ElfHosted: it gets a secure HTTPS address on your own ElfHosted subdomain, which the editor needs for things like copy and paste, with your ElfHosted login in front, and we keep it running and updated so there's nothing to rebuild when a new version lands. Your workspace lives on our servers, so your files, settings and shell history are right where you left them, whichever device you open next. code-server itself is made by Coder.

What is code-server? It's VS Code in the browser: Visual Studio Code running on a server, opened in any browser tab, with the full editor, extensions from the Open VSX marketplace, themes, keybindings and an integrated terminal. Most popular extensions are there; Microsoft-licensed ones are not on Open VSX. It turns a tablet, a borrowed laptop or a library computer into a cloud development environment, and builds and tests run on server CPU instead of your laptop battery.

Hosted on ElfHosted, it's yours, behind your login.

Run CyberChef with ElfHosted: your own instance at its own secure address, behind your ElfHosted login, that opens from any computer, at home or at work. No queue, no rate limit, nobody watching what you decode, and no converter website in the middle. We run it for you and keep it updated. CyberChef itself was created by GCHQ.

What is CyberChef? The "cyber swiss army knife": several hundred operations you stack into a recipe to decode data, encode it, hash it, compress it or parse it, watching it change one step at a time. A Base64 decoder, a hex editor and a JWT reader, in one page. It all runs in your browser, so whatever you paste never reaches a server, ours included. Save a recipe as a link and a colleague lands on the same setup; recipes you save live in that browser, so copy one out as a link or as text to take it elsewhere.

Hosted CyberChef is part of the ElfHosted Flex collection: a Flex plan runs several apps from the collection at once, and you swap which ones whenever you like. Every Flex plan starts with a 7-day trial. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. Stuck?

It has a secure address of its own, so everyone adds it to their phone's home screen and ticks chores off from anywhere, not just the home wifi. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to.

What is Donetick? An open-source chore tracker from the Donetick project, built for families and households. Type a chore the way you'd say it, like "bins out every Monday at 7pm", and it works out the schedule, the recurrence and whose turn it is next. Points keep score of who's pulling their weight, and an NFC tag on the fridge marks a chore done with one tap, which makes it a family chore app the kids can't argue with.

Run Dungeon Revealer with ElfHosted, and the map lives at a fixed address your table bookmarks once. Players open it in any browser, pick Player and enter the player password, with nothing to install and no ElfHosted account. Nothing is opened on your home network, no computer has to stay on for the session, and we keep it running and updated so the map's ready on game night. Dungeon Revealer itself is the work of the Dungeon Revealer project.

What is Dungeon Revealer? A battle map with a fog of war you control. Upload any map image, draw the grid, and wipe the fog away as your party explores. The Dungeon Master sees the whole map; the players see only what has been revealed. Keep the next map staged and hidden, and push it live when the party gets there. Tokens, a shared dice roller, notes and a chat sidebar come along too.

Because your players are not ElfHosted customers, hosted Dungeon Revealer sits outside our single sign on, so its two passwords guard your maps: set both before you share the address. Your uploaded maps sit on backed up storage: it's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to.

Run FlatNotes with ElfHosted, and your notes have their own secure address: add it to your phone's home screen and it opens like an app, from anywhere, not just from inside the house. It sits behind your ElfHosted login, with an optional FlatNotes password or code on top. Prefer your own editor? Open the notes folder in the file manager, or sync it to your desktop, and edit the same files there.

What is FlatNotes? A simple, open-source notes app from the FlatNotes project, with no database. Your markdown notes live on disk as plain files, one per note, so the files are the data: readable in any text editor, with or without FlatNotes. Type a hashtag anywhere in a note to tag it, and full-text search finds it again. It suits anyone who wants a notes app that won't trap them, and pairs well with a desktop editor such as Obsidian or VS Code, synced with rclone or Syncthing.

With hosted FlatNotes, we run it and keep it updated, with no Python or Docker for you to look after. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. If something's not right, Sam checks your apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it.

Hosted personal finance manager, kept private</video:title><video:description>Firefly III is a personal finance manager for knowing where the money went. Hosted Firefly III is kept private, backed up daily, with email set up.

Run Firefly III with ElfHosted: we run it for you, keep it updated, back it up daily and keep it private behind your ElfHosted login. Its email is set up for you, so password resets and notifications just arrive with nothing to configure, and it sits on your ElfHosted dashboard beside your other apps, with a portfolio tracker for your investments if you want one. Firefly III itself is the work of the Firefly III project and its developer.

What is Firefly III? A personal finance manager with double-entry bookkeeping underneath: every transaction moves money from one account to another, so the numbers add up. Rules sort and tag new transactions for you, and it covers budgets, bills and more than one currency, so it works as a budget app for the whole household's money. It works in your phone's browser. Amounts in the video are invented, and nothing here is financial advice.

Hosted Firefly III is part of the ElfHosted Flex collection: a Flex plan runs several apps from the collection at once, and you swap which ones whenever you like. Every Flex plan starts with a 7-day trial. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. Stuck? Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks you before fixing it.

A virtual tabletop that's always on</video:title><video:description>Foundry VTT is a virtual tabletop for playing RPGs with friends online. Hosted on ElfHosted, your table is always on and players join in a browser.

Foundry VTT hosting on ElfHosted keeps your table always on, so the game never waits for anybody's laptop. It has a secure address that works from anywhere, with no router settings and no port-forwarding, and your world lives on backed up storage instead of the laptop somebody also uses for work. Each new Foundry release is installed for you within about a day, so you never run the upgrade yourself. Foundry is commercial software licensed per person: bring your own licence from foundryvtt.com, and we host it for you.

What is Foundry VTT? Foundry Virtual Tabletop is a game server for online tabletop RPG sessions: scenes, tokens, dynamic lighting and fog of war, dice, character sheets, journals and audio, with game systems such as D&amp;D 5e, Pathfinder 2e and Call of Cthulhu, and a big module ecosystem on top. Your players need no account and nothing to install: send them the address, give each an access key, set an administrator password, and they join in a browser.

Start hosted Foundry VTT with a 7-day trial. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. Stuck? Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks you before fixing it. If Sam can't help, the ElfHosted team is on Discord around the clock, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server. Foundry's terms allow one hosted instance reachable by other people at a time, so retire any copy you run at home first.

FreshRSS hosting on ElfHosted: we run the FreshRSS project's RSS reader for you, keep it updated, and back it up daily, with restores you can do yourself. There's no database to set up and nothing to install: open it and it's ready, behind your ElfHosted login, at a secure address your phone apps can reach. Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, sends a push alert if FreshRSS goes down (once you've said yes to its alerts), tells you why, and restarts it with your OK. Rather talk to a person? When Sam can't help, the ElfHosted team is on Discord around the clock, in a carefully moderated, family-friendly server. It's one place for support for every app you run with us, handled by professionals, instead of a GitHub issue, docs that may be out of date, or yet another Discord per project. Unlike a generic chatbot, which guesses and overcomplicates, Sam is tuned on these apps and the way we run them: he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it.

What is FreshRSS? An open-source RSS reader and feed aggregator. It gathers blogs, news sites, podcasts, subreddits and YouTube channels into one reading list, with no algorithm and no ads: the feeds are the ones you chose, in the order they were posted. It keeps your place on every device, and many phone RSS reader apps connect through the Google Reader API with their own app password, separate from your ElfHosted login. Moving from another reader? Export your feed list as OPML, import it here, and your categories and feeds come with it.

Hosted on ElfHosted, it's ready to federate from day one, with no server at home.

Run GoToSocial with ElfHosted: a social server needs an address the whole fediverse can reach, and yours is ready from day one, with no server at home to look after. We run it for you, keep it updated and look after the secure address. Add the custom domain add-on and your name lives on a domain you own, while the ElfHosted address keeps working too; set it before you start following people, because the domain becomes part of your identity. GoToSocial itself is the work of the GoToSocial project.

What is GoToSocial? A lightweight ActivityPub fediverse server: you post from it, and people on Mastodon and other fediverse servers can follow you. No ads and no tracking, and because it's Mastodon compatible, you use it from the apps you like; it is mostly a server, designed to be used through those apps. With your own domain, you can move your server elsewhere one day, data and all. You create your account with the GoToSocial CLI shortcut on your ElfHosted dashboard.

Start hosted GoToSocial with a 7-day trial. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. Stuck?

A tabletop RPG library you can search</video:title><video:description>Grimoire is a tabletop RPG library and campaign tracker for game masters. Hosted on ElfHosted, every rulebook you own is searchable at the table.

With hosted Grimoire on ElfHosted, your tabletop RPG library is always on, at a fixed address, so it's there when the session is, with nothing opened on your home network and no laptop left running. Upload your books with the file manager that comes with it, or connect the cloud storage where they already live. We run it, keep it updated, and back it up daily, with restores you can do yourself: a library that took years to assemble deserves it. If something goes wrong, Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it. When a question needs a human, the ElfHosted team is on Discord day and night, across time zones, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server. It's one place for support for every app you run with us, handled by professionals, instead of a GitHub issue, docs that may be out of date, or yet another Discord per project. Unlike a generic chatbot, which guesses and overcomplicates, Sam is tuned on these apps and the way we run them: he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it.

What is Grimoire? A tabletop RPG library for the rulebook PDFs you own, from the Grimoire project. Drop them in by game system and it sorts them, renders every page for fast reading on a phone, and indexes the text, so a search jumps straight to the right page in the right book. It's a campaign tracker too: game masters run shared campaigns with player invites, keep GM-only notes apart from shared ones, and schedule sessions weekly, fortnightly or monthly. Battlemaps and tokens get tagged galleries, each player gets their own login, and an OPDS feed lets e-reader apps read the library.

Run Gramps Web with ElfHosted, and your family tree isn't stuck on one old computer: it has a secure address you open from any browser, wherever the research leads, and it sits behind your ElfHosted login, so your family history stays private. Gramps Web itself is the work of the Gramps project: open-source genealogy software, with Gramps Web as its browser front end.

What is Gramps Web? Family tree software for your browser. Record people, relationships, events and places, and tie each one to the source that proves it, so your family tree stands up rather than resting on half-remembered dates. Add photos, scanned certificates and documents to the people they belong to, and explore timelines and maps. Already built a tree in the Gramps desktop app? Bring it with you and carry on. Your data stays in the open Gramps format, and you can add accounts for relatives so they can browse the tree and add what they know.

With hosted Gramps Web, we run it and keep it updated, so years of research have a safe home. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to, and if something looks wrong, Sam checks your apps, tells you what's wrong and asks before fixing it.

Run Harbor with ElfHosted: it stays online on our servers, so you open it in any browser, from anywhere, with no computer at home to keep on and nothing that only works on the home wifi. Point it at the addons you already run with ElfHosted, and your settings and watch progress are kept safe across devices and restarts. We run it in collaboration with its maintainer and keep it updated, behind your ElfHosted login.

What is Harbor? A media player built on the Stremio addons ecosystem: a Stremio client for the addons and accounts you already use, in your browser. Its headline feature is Watch Together: start a room, share the code, and everyone's player stays in sync, with chat alongside. It makes an easy watch party, since guests join with the code and don't need an account, so treat the code like any link.

Hosted Harbor is in early access, so expect some rough edges. Start with a 7-day trial. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. Stuck?

It sits on your dashboard beside your other ElfHosted apps, like a recipe book with a meal planner or the family chore chart. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. If something goes wrong, Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it.

What is Grocy? An open-source pantry tracker from the Grocy project, which calls it "ERP beyond your fridge": a stock system for groceries and whatever else you buy more than once. It knows what's in the cupboard, where it lives and when it expires. Give each product a minimum and whatever runs low lands on the shopping list in one click, so it works as a shopping list app too, with camera barcode scanning in your phone's browser.

Run Healthchecks with ElfHosted, and your monitor lives on our servers, not beside the jobs it watches, so a job that goes quiet at home still gets noticed, even when the power's out. It's reachable from anywhere with its own login, so jobs on a home server, a cloud machine or a laptop post their pings directly with one line of script. We keep it running around the clock and updated, with a secure address. Healthchecks itself is the work of the Healthchecks project.

What is Healthchecks? Cron job monitoring for the jobs that are supposed to run on a schedule: backups, syncs, database dumps, scripts. Each check has its own ping address. Your job hits it when it finishes, and if a ping doesn't arrive on schedule, plus a grace window, Healthchecks emails you. It works on the dead man's switch principle, so silence becomes a signal, and every ping is logged so you can see a job start to drift. Signal a job's start and failure too, and a crashed run alerts you straight away.

Hosted Healthchecks is new to ElfHosted and in Early Access. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. If something looks wrong, Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it. It's part of the ElfHosted Flex collection: a Flex plan runs several apps from the collection at once, you swap which ones whenever you like, and every Flex plan starts with a 7-day trial. Healthchecks is open source; ElfHosted is not affiliated with the Healthchecks project. If a check has Sam stumped, real people take over on the ElfHosted Discord, whatever your time zone, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server. It's one place for support for every app you run with us, handled by professionals, instead of a GitHub issue, docs that may be out of date, or yet another Discord per project.

A plant care tracker for the whole household</video:title><video:description>HortusFox is a plant care tracker for the whole household. Hosted on ElfHosted, the plants, photos and watering are on every phone, with one login.

With hosted HortusFox on ElfHosted, the household's plant care tracker is always there: we keep it running around the clock and updated, with nothing to install. The database is set up and looked after, and a year of plant photos survives every update. It has its own secure address, so you can tick off the watering on your phone, out in the garden, and you sign in with your ElfHosted login while HortusFox sets up your account for you. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. If something goes wrong, Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it. If you'd like a real person, the ElfHosted team is on Discord around the clock, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server. It's one place for support for every app you run with us, handled by professionals, instead of a GitHub issue, docs that may be out of date, or yet another Discord per project. Unlike a generic chatbot, which guesses and overcomplicates, Sam is tuned on these apps and the way we run them: he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it.

What is HortusFox? An open-source plant care tracker from developer Daniel Brendel. Catalogue every plant by room, shelf or garden, add photos and care notes, and see which watering and care jobs are due, like a watering reminder everyone shares. Everyone sees the same jobs and who did the watering last, and each plant builds up a photo history.

HortusFox is part of the ElfHosted Flex collection: a Flex plan runs several apps from the collection at once, and you swap which ones whenever you like. Every Flex plan starts with a 7-day trial. HortusFox is open source; ElfHosted is not affiliated with the project. You can support its developer through the link below.

To change your subscription, open My Account on the ElfHosted store, then Subscriptions, and click the subscription you want to change. Next to the product, click "Change subscription": it takes you to the products you can switch to.

Pick the product you want. If it offers billing terms, click "Choose billing term", and your current term is already picked for you. Add it to your cart and check out: it's prorated, so you pay or get credit for the difference. You can upgrade your plan from a trial the same way.

Your setup is kept. Apps that aren't part of the new product go away, and the new ones are set up for you. If your new apps aren't there after twenty minutes, bring your order number to #elf-help on the ElfHosted Discord. An ElfHosted change subscription always starts from My Account, then Subscriptions. Real people are there around the clock, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server.

To mount your own cloud storage, open Rclone UI from your ElfHosted apps dashboard. At the login, any username and password gets you in. First, set a bandwidth limit from the Rclone UI dashboard: it's recommended, so your transfers don't slow things down for everyone else. Then create a new config: give the remote a sensible name (it becomes the folder), choose your provider type, and enter its details.

Rclone UI opens the Explorer. Type the remote's name and click Open: if you can see your files, the rclone mount is working; if not, go back to Configs and fix it. ElfHosted then mounts every remote you set up at /storage/rclone/ and its name, where all your apps can see it. Point your media server's library at that folder, and it scans your files right where they are.

If you change a remote's settings later, you may need to restart Rclone UI from ElfBot. Rclone UI comes with ElfHosted's personal media stacks, so you can bring your own storage to your apps. The full steps for ElfHosted rclone are in the docs. rclone is open source; ElfHosted is not affiliated with the rclone project. Remote still won't open? Real people from the ElfHosted team are on Discord around the clock, in a carefully moderated, family-friendly server.

Hosted on ElfHosted, friends join by link and code, with no account needed.

Run IHateMoney with ElfHosted, and only you can make projects, behind your ElfHosted login, while friends open the project link, type its code and add what they spent, with no account needed. It has a secure address of its own, so it works in any phone's browser, at the cabin or on the beach, with no app to install. IHateMoney itself is the work of the IHateMoney project: an open-source way to split bills.

What is IHateMoney? A simple way to track shared expenses for a trip, a flat share or a group dinner. Log who paid and who it was for, split evenly or by weight, and it works out the fewest payments to settle everyone up. Export the whole history as CSV or JSON whenever you like. On ElfHosted it sits on your dashboard beside Donetick, so shared costs and shared chores live next door.

With hosted IHateMoney, we run it for you and keep it updated. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to, and if something looks wrong, Sam checks your apps, tells you what's wrong and asks before fixing it.

Run Immich with ElfHosted: your phone app connects over a secure address on your own subdomain, so it backs up on mobile data wherever you are, with no port-forwarding and no computer in the garage. The database, video converting and face spotting come set up on server-grade machines. Immich itself is the work of the Immich team: an open-source Google Photos alternative.

What is Immich? A photo backup for the family: it backs up your phone's camera roll by itself, photos and videos, into your family's private library, and spots faces you can name, so the whole library is something you can search.

With hosted Immich, you bring the storage and connect it; we run Immich and keep it updated across big version changes. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. Start with a 7-day trial. Immich is open source; ElfHosted is not affiliated with the project. You can support Immich by buying it from the Immich team through the link below. Prefer a human?

Hosted on ElfHosted, your phone reaches it from anywhere.

Hosted Kavita on ElfHosted has its own secure address, so your phone reaches it from anywhere, with no port-forwarding: read at breakfast and carry on from the bus, with your place and bookmarks kept. We run it for you, keep it updated, and put your ElfHosted login in front of the web reader. Prefer a phone reading app? Many OPDS reading apps can connect to Kavita, and some can keep books for offline reading.

What is Kavita? An open-source reading server from the Kavita project for a mixed library: ebooks, comics, manga and webtoons. Add the files you own and it sorts them into series, volumes and reading lists. It opens EPUB, PDF and comic archive files in a reader that works in any browser, so it is an ebook reader and a comic and manga reader in one place. Everyone in the household gets their own login and their own libraries, so sharing a shelf never means sharing your reading history.

It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. If something goes wrong, Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it. You bring the books; Kavita includes none. Start with a 7-day trial.

Hosted on ElfHosted, it's private and on your phone.

Run LubeLogger with ElfHosted, and your car's service history is on your phone at the mechanic's counter, private behind your ElfHosted login. We keep it running and updated, your records and receipts survive every restart and upgrade, and years of history outlive your laptop, ready at resale time. LubeLogger itself is the work of the LubeLogger project.

What is LubeLogger? A vehicle maintenance tracker for services, repairs, upgrades, taxes and odometer readings, with the receipts, invoices and manuals attached to the record they belong to. Reminders arrive by date or by distance, so the next oil change or registration doesn't sneak up on you. It's a fuel tracker too: fill-ups roll up into fuel economy and running-cost charts for each vehicle. CSV import and export bring an old spreadsheet in and take your data out, and its API works behind the login with an API key, so a home dashboard can show what's due. On the store it pairs with Warracker, for warranties on the rest of the household.

Hosted LubeLogger is new to ElfHosted and in Early Access. It's part of the ElfHosted Flex collection: a Flex plan runs several apps from the collection at once, you swap which ones whenever you like, and every Flex plan starts with a 7-day trial.

Hosted Linkding saves from any computer and signs you in with your ElfHosted login.

Run Linkding with ElfHosted, and the browser extension saves from any computer, at home or at work, because your Linkding has a secure address it can reach. We run it for you, keep it updated, and your ElfHosted login signs you straight in, with no second password. Already reading with FreshRSS on ElfHosted? Turn a tag into a feed, and it follows along.

What is Linkding? An open-source bookmark manager from the Linkding project. Save a page with one click from the Firefox or Chrome extension, add tags and a Markdown note, and search finds it again across titles, descriptions, tags and your notes. It can keep a snapshot of each page you save, so the bookmark still works when the site goes away. Export your browser bookmarks and import them in one go, and give everyone in the household their own account. If you want an open-source Pinboard alternative that stays focused on bookmarks, this is it.

Hosted Linkding is part of the ElfHosted Flex collection: a Flex plan runs several apps from the collection at once, and you swap which ones whenever you like. Every Flex plan starts with a 7-day trial. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to.

A quick notes app with your own timeline</video:title><video:description>Memos is a quick notes app with your own private timeline. Hosted Memos stays online, so a note from your phone is waiting on your laptop.

With hosted Memos, ElfHosted runs the Memos project's quick notes app for you: we keep it online and updated, and back up your notes every day, with restores you can do yourself. A note you jot in your phone's browser is already waiting on your laptop, and it all stays behind your ElfHosted login.

What is Memos? An open-source quick notes app for the thoughts that don't need a whole document. Type, hit save, and each memo lands on a timeline, newest first. Write markdown notes with checklists, links and code, attach photos and files, and find a memo again with tags, full-text search or the calendar. Keep a memo private or share it with the other people signed in to your Memos.

Memos is new to ElfHosted and in early access. It's part of the ElfHosted Flex collection: a Flex plan runs several apps from the collection at once, and you swap which ones whenever you like. Every Flex plan starts with a 7-day trial. Memos is open source, built by the Memos project and its community; ElfHosted is not affiliated with the Memos project. You can support it through GitHub Sponsors. Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, sends a push alert if Memos goes down (once you've said yes to its alerts), tells you why, and restarts it with your OK. When Sam can't help, a person from our team is on Discord day and night, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server. It's one place for support for every app you run with us, handled by professionals, instead of a GitHub issue, docs that may be out of date, or yet another Discord per project. Unlike a generic chatbot, which guesses and overcomplicates, Sam is tuned on these apps and the way we run them: he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it.

A server with parental controls</video:title><video:description>Minecraft for Families is an always on Minecraft server with parental controls: see who's playing, for how long, and set a bedtime.

Minecraft server hosting from ElfHosted, built for families: the world keeps running day and night, backed up daily with restores you can do yourself, with no PC left on at home and nothing opened on your home network. The server runs Paper, from the Paper project, and every server comes with a private parent panel that ElfHosted built, by parents who run one at home. Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, sends a push alert if the server goes down (once you've said yes to its alerts), tells you why, and restarts it with your OK. Unlike a generic chatbot, which guesses and overcomplicates, Sam is tuned on these apps and the way we run them: he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it.

What is Minecraft for Families? A family Minecraft server with parental controls. See who's playing and for how long, today and across the week, and set a bedtime with different hours for school nights and weekends. Players get a warning in the game, then the world closes for everyone at once. The panel never reads your children's chat: it shows who's on and for how long. Only the people you name can join, and Geyser and Floodgate are installed for you, so tablet, console and computer players join the same world.

Each player needs their own copy of the game. Start with a 7-day trial. Paper, Geyser and Floodgate are open source; ElfHosted is not affiliated with Mojang, Microsoft, the Paper project or GeyserMC. The server image comes from itzg, who you can sponsor on GitHub. When Sam can't help, the ElfHosted team is on Discord around the clock, and the server is family-friendly and carefully moderated. It's one place for support for every app you run with us, handled by professionals, instead of a GitHub issue, docs that may be out of date, or yet another Discord per project.

A fast RSS reader for your favourite reader app</video:title><video:description>Miniflux is a fast, minimal RSS reader. Hosted Miniflux has a secure address, so your favourite feed reader app connects from anywhere.

Run Miniflux with ElfHosted, and it has a secure address of its own, so your favourite feed reader app on your phone connects from anywhere, even on mobile data. Miniflux speaks the Fever and Google Reader APIs, so the reader app you already like works with it. The database comes ready with nothing to set up, you can import your feeds from your old reader in one OPML file, and articles worth keeping save straight to Linkding, right beside it on your ElfHosted dashboard.

What is Miniflux? A fast, minimal, open-source RSS reader from the Miniflux project. Follow the sites you like and new posts land in one quiet list, with full text search across all of them. There's no tracking, and when a feed only sends a summary, Miniflux can fetch the whole article.

With hosted Miniflux, we run it for you and keep it updated. Miniflux is part of the ElfHosted Flex collection: a Flex plan runs several apps from the collection at once, and you swap which ones whenever you like. Every Flex plan starts with a 7-day trial. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. If something's not right, Sam checks your apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it. Miniflux is open source; ElfHosted is not affiliated with the Miniflux project. You can support its developer through Liberapay.

Learn Japanese with clickable subtitles</video:title><video:description>Mirumoji is a Japanese immersion player: click any subtitle word for its reading, meaning and kanji. Hosted on ElfHosted, in any browser.

With hosted Mirumoji on ElfHosted, your Japanese immersion player opens in any browser, behind your ElfHosted login, with no extra password and a profile for each learner. We run it and keep it updated, and your library, clips and decks are waiting when you sit down to study. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. If something goes wrong, Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it. Unlike a generic chatbot, which guesses and overcomplicates, Sam is tuned on these apps and the way we run them: he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it.

What is Mirumoji? An open-source Japanese immersion player for people who learn Japanese from real speech. Upload a video you own with its Japanese subtitle file, and every line becomes clickable: pick any word for its readings, meanings, the kanji inside it with stroke order, pronunciation audio and example sentences. Save a line as a clip of up to 60 seconds, and export your clips as an Anki deck. For a whole-sentence breakdown, give Mirumoji your own AI key through ElfBot. Bring your own Japanese .srt subtitles: automatic subtitles need your own Modal account, also added through ElfBot. Videos play in the browser as MP4 with H.264 video and AAC audio, up to 2 GB; Mirumoji doesn't convert them here.

Mirumoji is part of the ElfHosted Flex collection: a Flex plan runs several apps from the collection at once, and you swap which ones whenever you like. Every Flex plan starts with a 7-day trial. Mirumoji is open source; ElfHosted is not affiliated with the Mirumoji project.

Hosted Navidrome on ElfHosted keeps your music on our servers, not your phone, so it never eats your phone's space, and gives it a secure address your phone can reach from anywhere. We run it for you and keep it updated. Everyone in the family gets their own account, and the web player sits behind your ElfHosted login.

What is Navidrome? An open-source music server from the Navidrome project for your personal music library: CDs and records you own, digital purchases, and your own recordings. Browse by artist, album or genre in the web player, make playlists, or let smart playlists fill themselves. Pick from lots of Subsonic-compatible music player apps for iPhone and Android, and your playlists, stars and favourites wait in every one. If an app can't play a format, Navidrome converts it on the fly. Navidrome doesn't include any music: bring your own.

It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. If something goes wrong, Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it. Try it for seven days.

Run NzbDAV with ElfHosted, and it arrives already wired into your ElfHosted media stack, so your media server and library apps find it straight away, and its folder never faces the internet. The folder stays put through restarts, lined up with the rest of your library, so there's nothing to re-plumb, and it sits behind your ElfHosted login with no extra password. No computer humming in the cupboard at home.

What is NzbDAV? A Usenet WebDAV server that opens what's on your own Usenet provider as a folder, so your backups and recordings play in your media server with nothing copied down first. No drive filling up, no waiting, and it reads inside archives without unpacking them. The upstream project is now called InfiniDysk; on ElfHosted it keeps the NzbDAV name and address.

Hosted NzbDAV is an add-on to your ElfHosted media stack, run and kept updated for you. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. Stuck? Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks you before fixing it. You bring your own Usenet provider account and are responsible for what you connect: ElfHosted hosts apps and does not provide content.

A hosted AI agent that works with your apps</video:title><video:description>Hosted OpenClaw is an always-on AI agent that runs on ElfHosted, away from your laptop and files, and works with your other ElfHosted apps.

An AI agent needs a home that never switches off, and it shouldn't be your laptop. Run OpenClaw with ElfHosted and it runs on our servers around the clock, so you reach your agent from anywhere and its scheduled work fires without a computer switched on at home. It lives in its own space, not on your laptop, so it never gets a key to your personal files or your home network, and it sits inside your ElfHosted stack, behind the same ElfHosted login as your other apps, so it's already trusted to work with them: adding a recipe, or pruning your RSS reader. It arrives locked down, with the project's recommended defaults switched on, and we keep it updated with your ElfHosted login in front.

What is OpenClaw? An open-source AI agent framework from the OpenClaw project: agents that use skills and integrations to get real jobs done for you. On ElfHosted the AI is included on an everyday allowance, so it works on the first run with no key to find, and you can add your own provider for a bigger model.

It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. If something goes wrong, Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it. Start with a 7-day trial. OpenClaw is open source; ElfHosted is not affiliated with the OpenClaw project.

Share files between any devices, in the browser</video:title><video:description>PairDrop is file sharing in the browser: send files between phones, tablets and laptops of any make, with nothing to install.

Run PairDrop with ElfHosted, and you get your own private space: only devices you've given the address can see each other, not strangers on a public instance. It lives at a secure address that never changes, so you bookmark it once on every device, and we renew its certificate, keep it updated and run it around the clock, with no server of yours to look after. PairDrop itself is the work of the PairDrop project.

What is PairDrop? Open-source file sharing that runs in your web browser. Inspired by Apple's AirDrop, it works across every platform: open your PairDrop address on two devices, they see each other, and you drop photos, documents, whole folders or a quick bit of text from one to the other. It's the easy way to send files between devices in a household with a mix of phones, tablets and laptops, with no app to install. Not in the same place? Pair two devices with a short code and send across the internet.

Hosted PairDrop is part of the ElfHosted Flex collection: a Flex plan runs several apps from the collection at once, and you swap which ones whenever you like. Every Flex plan starts with a 7-day trial. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. If something's not right, Sam checks your apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it. PairDrop is open source; ElfHosted is not affiliated with the PairDrop project.

Push notifications to your phone from any script</video:title><video:description>ntfy (said "notify") sends push notifications to your phone from any script or app. Hosted on ElfHosted, it stays online, so alerts reach you anywhere.

With ntfy hosting from ElfHosted, your notification server lives online, not on a box at home, so the ping reaches your phone wherever you are, even when the computer it's watching has died. We run it for you, keep it updated, and your users and topic rules carry through restarts and upgrades. It starts locked down, deny-all, and you choose who can read or publish to each topic. ntfy itself is the work of the ntfy project.

What is ntfy? A notification server for all the other things you run. Post a message to a topic with a plain HTTP request, even a one-line curl command, and every device subscribed to that topic gets push notifications straight away, with titles, priorities, tags, attachments and action buttons. Point your backup scripts, cron jobs, uptime checks and home automations at it: most tools with webhook or Apprise support can target ntfy directly, and the official Android and iPhone apps connect to your own instance. If you know Gotify, it's the same idea, with an official iPhone app.

Hosted ntfy is new to ElfHosted and in early access. It's part of the ElfHosted Flex collection: a Flex plan runs several apps from the collection at once, and you swap which ones whenever you like. Every Flex plan starts with a 7-day trial. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. If something's not right, Sam checks your apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it. ntfy is open source; ElfHosted is not affiliated with the ntfy project. You can support the ntfy developer through the link below. If you'd rather talk to a person, the ElfHosted team is on Discord around the clock, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server.

A video hosting platform for your club or family</video:title><video:description>PeerTube is an open-source video hosting platform you can call your own: a channel for your club, school, family or creative work.

PeerTube takes a lot of running: a database, video processing, and storage that fills up fast. With hosted PeerTube, ElfHosted runs all of it for you, keeps it updated version after version, and gives it a secure address on your own subdomain, which is what federation needs. PeerTube needs one setting on first start, and the docs walk you through it.

What is PeerTube? A free, open-source video hosting platform from the PeerTube project, made by Framasoft, for your own videos, whether that's a club, a school, a family or a creator. Upload your videos and each one is prepared in several sizes so it plays smoothly on a phone or a big screen. PeerTube is fediverse video: people can follow your channel from Mastodon and other ActivityPub services, and new uploads reach them there. Add captions, give each member their own channel, and moderate the comments yourself.

It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. If something goes wrong, Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it. Start with a 7-day trial.

Part one of The Photo Exodus. Tess's phone says storage full minutes before the school concert. Maya's cloud storage is full and wants more money to keep more photos of the cat. Milo's baby photos are on an old laptop that won't wake up: Robin meant to copy them off the year Milo was born.

Every phone backs up somewhere different, every account wants paying, and nobody knows which photo lives where. Then Nana brings the shoebox: every print of Grandad, the lid held on with one of his ties. Maya asks the obvious question: can't we have one family photo library, with every phone and the shoebox, all safe?

The Photo Exodus is a short animated saga from ElfHosted about one family's photos: from full phones and scattered clouds to a NAS at home, and on to a photo library that runs itself. Each part stands on its own; watch them in order in the playlist on our channel. When the family moves to ElfHosted, Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, is Robin's sidekick: tuned on our apps and the way we run them, he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it. When Sam can't help, the ElfHosted team is on Discord around the clock, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server.

Then he goes home.

Part two of The Photo Exodus. Uncle Darren sets up a home NAS photo backup in the hall cupboard: a stack of drives in RAID, Immich in a container, and a fan that hums like it's paying rent. If a drive dies, the others cover for it, as long as someone swaps it in time.

It works beautifully. Immich backs up the family's phones by itself, lays the years out on a timeline, pins photos on a map and sorts everyone's faces, so the family photo library finally lives in one place. Then Darren goes home, the NAS stays, and the first email about a data scrub arrives while Robin's in meetings.

Part three of The Photo Exodus. Two weeks after Uncle Darren built it, the NAS says a drive is failing, and the new one arrives the day Robin's away. The little light in the cupboard has gone orange.

Then an Immich upgrade whose release notes say back up the database first, read at eleven at night. Face spotting runs all weekend and the photo app freezes. Milo's phone only backs up on the home wifi, because reaching the NAS from outside is a whole weekend of router and certificates. Robin knows how to fix each of these; what he hasn't got is the evenings. Darren's fixes are right, and each costs a weekend.

Hosted Mealie puts the recipes and shopping list on every phone, with AI included.

What is Mealie? A recipe manager and meal planner: paste a link to a recipe and it saves a clean copy, with ingredients, steps and photos, then plan the week on a calendar and let it suggest a meal by tag.

On ElfHosted, Mealie has a secure address of its own, so the shopping list is on everyone's phone at the shop and the recipe is on the kitchen tablet. It sits on your ElfHosted dashboard beside your other apps under one login, and the AI included with your plan can tidy ingredients or turn pasted text into a recipe, with no key to find.

With hosted Mealie, we run it for you, keep it updated, and keep it private behind your ElfHosted login. Mealie is part of the ElfHosted Flex collection: a Flex plan runs several apps from the collection at once, and you swap which ones whenever you like. Every Flex plan starts with a 7-day trial. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. Mealie is open source; ElfHosted is not affiliated with the project. Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, sends a push alert if Mealie goes down (once you've said yes to its alerts), tells you why, and restarts it with your OK. And when Sam can't help, the ElfHosted team is on Discord around the clock, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server. It's one place for support for every app you run with us, handled by professionals, instead of a GitHub issue, docs that may be out of date, or yet another Discord per project. Unlike a generic chatbot, which guesses and overcomplicates, Sam is tuned on these apps and the way we run them: he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it.

Hosted on ElfHosted, your reading apps reach it from anywhere.

Hosted Komga on ElfHosted has its own secure address, so reading apps that support OPDS connect from your phone wherever you are, with no port-forwarding, and some keep chapters for reading offline: a manga reader on the bus. We run it for you and keep it updated, so there's no server at home to look after, and your ElfHosted login stands in front of the web reader. Upload your comic files or connect cloud storage you already have.

What is Komga? An open-source comic book server from the Komga project, for the comics and manga you own, or made yourself, in CBZ, CBR, PDF and EPUB. It groups them into series with every volume in reading order, and reads them in any browser, a page at a time, right to left for manga. Everyone gets their own account and reading progress. Komga doesn't include any comics: bring your own.

It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. If something goes wrong, Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it. Try it for seven days. Komga is open source; ElfHosted is not affiliated with the Komga project. You can support Komga through the link below. When Sam can't untangle it, the ElfHosted team is on Discord around the clock, in every time zone, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server.

Part four of The Photo Exodus. The family is on holiday when the power cuts out at home. The NAS is off, so there's no photo library, no phone backups, and Nana's shoebox scans of Grandad just spin. Photo backup on holiday was the one thing nobody planned for.

Back home, Robin moves the family to hosted Immich with ElfHosted. The photos sit on his own storage, connected to his account (the docs recommend a storage box; any rclone-compatible cloud storage works). The phone app backs up over a secure address on your own subdomain, on mobile data, from anywhere. Immich is kept running and upgraded, database and all, and backed up daily with restores you can do yourself. Start with a 7-day trial.

Your own podcast server that syncs everywhere</video:title><video:description>PinePods is your own podcast server: always on, with your place and queue in sync, and phone apps that connect from anywhere.

Hosted PinePods on ElfHosted is always on, so every show is up to date and waiting whenever you are, and saved episodes can go to your own cloud storage if you like. We run it for you, keep it updated, and put it beside your other ElfHosted apps on one dashboard. PinePods has its own phone apps, and Android podcast apps like AntennaPod sync with it too (gpodder sync), connecting straight to your own address from anywhere with subscriptions and play state lined up.

What is PinePods? An open-source podcast server and player from the PinePods project that keeps your subscriptions, episodes and listening history in one place. Search the built-in directory or paste an RSS feed, and each show updates itself whenever it publishes. It remembers where you paused and keeps your queue in step between the browser and the PinePods phone app. Everyone in the household gets their own login, with their own subscriptions and history.

It has its own login rather than ElfHosted single sign-on, so the phone apps can reach it: change the starting password first, as the docs explain. PinePods is new to ElfHosted and in early access. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. If something goes wrong, Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it. Start with a 7-day trial. PinePods is open source; ElfHosted is not affiliated with the PinePods project. When Sam can't help, the ElfHosted team is on Discord around the clock, across time zones, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server. It's one place for support for every app you run with us, handled by professionals, instead of a GitHub issue, docs that may be out of date, or yet another Discord per project. Unlike a generic chatbot, which guesses and overcomplicates, Sam is tuned on these apps and the way we run the...</video:description><video:content_loc>https://video-cdn.elfhosted.com/playlist/hls/fb930f17-ae9d-451b-827f-f27a0f86aded/09884d31-a2dc-4507-ab87-57885e5ec78f-master.m3u8</video:content_loc><video:player_loc>https://video.elfhosted.com/videos/embed/x4Ni1fP7LcCPvSWgYtGpFK</video:player_loc><video:duration>103</video:duration><video:rating>0</video:rating><video:view_count>0</video:view_count><video:publication_date>2026-10-05T02:39:26.172Z</video:publication_date><video:tag>PinePods</video:tag><video:tag>what is PinePods</video:tag><video:tag>podcast server</video:tag><video:tag>gpodder sync</video:tag><video:tag>hosted PinePods</video:tag><video:family_friendly>YES</video:family_friendly><video:uploader info="https://video.elfhosted.com/c/elfhostme/videos">ElfHosted</video:uploader><video:live>NO</video:live></video:video></url><url><loc>https://video.elfhosted.com/w/id6JdpxddoHkUKy3H7v9qM</loc><video:video><video:thumbnail_loc>https://video.elfhosted.com/lazy-static/thumbnails/2207aad0-8679-4600-93e9-b502549fe86c.jpg</video:thumbnail_loc><video:title>What is Kan? A Kanban board app for projects at home</video:title><video:description>Kan is a Kanban board app for home projects and small teams. Hosted Kan stays private behind your ElfHosted login, on any phone.

Run Kan with ElfHosted, and the board is there whenever someone needs it: we keep it running and updated, run its database for you, and add it to your backups every day, so you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. Hosted Kan sits behind your ElfHosted login, so your boards stay private, and it works in any phone's browser. Invites and account emails go out from an ElfHosted address, with no mail server to set up. If something goes wrong, Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it. Need a human instead? The ElfHosted team is on Discord around the clock, wherever you are, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server. It's one place for support for every app you run with us, handled by professionals, instead of a GitHub issue, docs that may be out of date, or yet another Discord per project. Unlike a generic chatbot, which guesses and overcomplicates, Sam is tuned on these apps and the way we run them: he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it.

What is Kan? An open-source Kanban board app from the Kan project: lists across the screen, cards you drag between them, and on each card a description, labels, comments and the people on it. Every card keeps an activity log of who moved what, filters cut a busy board down to your part, and templates stamp out a project board you run again and again. It suits a loft conversion or a house move, and coming from Trello, you can import your boards.

Kan is new to ElfHosted and in early access. It's part of the ElfHosted Flex collection: a Flex plan runs several apps from the collection at once, and you swap which ones whenever you like. Every Flex plan starts with a 7-day trial. Kan is open source; ElfHosted is not affiliated with the Kan project. You can support Kan through the...</video:description><video:content_loc>https://video-cdn.elfhosted.com/playlist/hls/8b5bcff6-af2e-4c1f-a7ee-201c9236cdc5/0ad9bbc1-5c6d-4847-89c0-48b69d25755c-master.m3u8</video:content_loc><video:player_loc>https://video.elfhosted.com/videos/embed/id6JdpxddoHkUKy3H7v9qM</video:player_loc><video:duration>104</video:duration><video:rating>0</video:rating><video:view_count>0</video:view_count><video:publication_date>2026-10-05T02:38:43.770Z</video:publication_date><video:tag>Kan</video:tag><video:tag>what is Kan</video:tag><video:tag>Kanban board</video:tag><video:tag>project board</video:tag><video:tag>hosted Kan</video:tag><video:family_friendly>YES</video:family_friendly><video:uploader info="https://video.elfhosted.com/c/elfhostme/videos">ElfHosted</video:uploader><video:live>NO</video:live></video:video></url><url><loc>https://video.elfhosted.com/w/aJbKp3pRx1fVSZkwLqJYMQ</loc><video:video><video:thumbnail_loc>https://video.elfhosted.com/lazy-static/thumbnails/222c7e2c-2750-454d-89f1-9d4e3730bb54.jpg</video:thumbnail_loc><video:title>What is Hermes Agent? An always-on AI agent with memory</video:title><video:description>Hermes Agent is an AI agent with memory from Nous Research. On ElfHosted it runs around the clock, learning as it goes, and you reach it from anywhere.

An agent needs a home that never switches off. Hosted Hermes Agent runs around the clock on ElfHosted, so it keeps learning and its reminders and scheduled work keep firing while your laptop sleeps. Message it from your phone, or open it in any browser or the desktop app: the same agent and the same memory wherever you are. It lives in its own private space behind your ElfHosted login, away from your home network, beside your other ElfHosted apps, and we keep it updated. The AI is included on an everyday allowance, and you can add your own provider for a favourite model or heavier use.

What is Hermes Agent? An open-source AI agent from Nous Research that keeps a searchable memory across sessions and writes and improves its own skills from experience. Its built-in scheduler runs reminders, reports and recurring tasks. Already running OpenClaw on ElfHosted? Hermes imports your OpenClaw settings on first launch, so it's an easy OpenClaw alternative to try side by side.

Its memory and skills survive restarts and upgrades, and it's backed up daily, with restores you can do yourself. If something goes wrong, Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it. Start with a 7-day trial. Hermes Agent is open source; ElfHosted is not affiliated with Nous Research. When you'd rather talk to a person than an agent, the ElfHosted team is on Discord around the clock, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server.

A small RSS reader that checks feeds for you</video:title><video:description>Fusion is a small, quiet RSS reader for the blogs and sites you follow. Hosted on ElfHosted, it keeps checking your feeds while your laptop sleeps.

Run Fusion with ElfHosted: it keeps checking your feeds while your laptop sleeps, so the new posts are waiting when you open it, right on your ElfHosted dashboard beside your other apps. Feed reader apps on your phone connect with your Fusion password, while your ElfHosted login guards the rest. We run it and keep it updated. Fusion itself is the work of its open-source project.

What is Fusion? A small, fast RSS reader. Paste a site's address and it finds the feed for you, sorts your subscriptions into groups, and shows what's new. Unread counts, bookmarks and full-text search are the whole feature list, on purpose. It installs as a web app on your phone, and it also works with feed reader apps that speak the Fever API. Want a Fusion password you'll remember? ElfBot on your dashboard sets it for you.

Hosted Fusion is new on ElfHosted, in early access, and part of the ElfHosted Flex collection: a Flex plan runs several apps from the collection at once, and you swap which ones whenever you like. Every Flex plan starts with a 7-day trial. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. Stuck? Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks you before fixing it. Fusion is open source; ElfHosted is not affiliated with the project. When Sam is stumped, the ElfHosted team takes over on Discord, day or night, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server. It's one place for support for every app you run with us, handled by professionals, instead of a GitHub issue, docs that may be out of date, or yet another Discord per project. Unlike a generic chatbot, which guesses and overcomplicates, Sam is tuned on these apps and the way we run them: he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it.

Your own private location history map</video:title><video:description>Dawarich keeps your location history on your own instance and shows it on a map, with trips, travel stats and photos. Only you see it.

Run Dawarich with ElfHosted: your phone needs somewhere to report to around the clock, and we keep that address on, so your location history keeps filling in wherever you go, with nothing at home to switch off. We keep it updated, with years of points, trips and stats surviving every upgrade, and if you run Immich with us too, connect the two and your photos turn up on the map where you took them. Dawarich itself is the work of the Dawarich project.

What is Dawarich? An open-source Google Timeline alternative that keeps your location history on your own instance. It shows where you've been on an interactive map you can zoom and explore, builds trips, and works out travel stats like countries visited and distance travelled. Bring your past with a Google Timeline export from Google Takeout, or GPX and GeoJSON files; from then on, the Dawarich iPhone app, or OwnTracks and Overland on Android and iPhone, report in. Only you see your data, plus any family members you choose to share with.

A notes app with snapshots, backed up daily</video:title><video:description>Poznote is a notes app for rich text, Markdown notes and task lists, with snapshots. Hosted on ElfHosted, it's private and backed up daily.

Run Poznote with ElfHosted, and your notes are backed up daily, so a dead disk the night before a deadline isn't the end of your essay; you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. It sits behind your ElfHosted login, with its own account on top, and we keep it running and updated on your ElfHosted dashboard. Your notes are stored as ordinary HTML and Markdown files in your own storage, so they're never locked in. Poznote itself is the work of the Poznote project.

What is Poznote? A notes app with three kinds of page: rich text notes that edit like a word processor, Markdown notes with a live preview, diagrams and maths, and task lists. Folders, tags, attachments and full text search keep them in order, and snapshots keep earlier versions of a note so you can restore one after a rewrite you regret. Use it for school, home and side projects, in the browser on your phone or on any laptop.

Hosted Poznote is new to ElfHosted and in Early Access, and runs on ElfHosted Flex: a Flex plan runs several apps from the Flex collection at once, you swap which ones whenever you like, and every Flex plan starts with a 7-day trial. If something's not right, Sam checks your apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it. Poznote is open source; ElfHosted is not affiliated with the Poznote project.

An encrypted pastebin nobody else can read</video:title><video:description>PrivateBin is an encrypted pastebin: notes are encrypted in your browser and the key stays in the link. Hosted on ElfHosted, we run it for you.

Run PrivateBin with ElfHosted, and it has its own secure address, so the key in your link travels safely and the note opens in any browser, with nothing to install. We keep it running and keep up with its security fixes, with nothing for you to set up. PrivateBin itself is the work of the PrivateBin project.

What is PrivateBin? A zero-knowledge encrypted pastebin. Your note is encrypted in your browser before it's sent, the key stays in the part of the link that never reaches the server, and the recipient's browser decrypts it, so we can't read it either. It's a good way to share passwords securely, or a log or config snippet that shouldn't sit in someone's email forever: make a note vanish after one read or after five minutes, and add a passphrase if you like.

Hosted PrivateBin is part of the ElfHosted Flex collection: a Flex plan runs several apps from the collection at once, and you swap which ones whenever you like. Every Flex plan starts with a 7-day trial. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. If something's not right, Sam checks your apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it. PrivateBin is open source; ElfHosted is not affiliated with the project.

Milo's castle is flattened on a public server, and a stranger in the chat asks which school he goes to.

Part one of The Family Realm. Milo's castle on a public Minecraft server is flattened overnight, and a stranger in the chat asks which school he goes to. Maya logs him off. Public Minecraft servers are busy places, full of people nobody in the family knows.

Tess's friends chip in for a rented server, but the friends on a console can't join: no Minecraft crossplay. Nobody's world has parental controls or a bedtime, so Robin is shouting up the stairs on a school night. Maya asks the obvious question: can't we have a family Minecraft server of our own?

The Family Realm is a short animated saga from ElfHosted about one family's Minecraft world: from random public servers to a server at home, and on to a family world that runs itself. Each part stands on its own; watch them in order in the playlist on our channel. When the family moves to ElfHosted, Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, is Robin's sidekick: tuned on our apps and the way we run them, he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it. When Sam can't help, the ElfHosted team is on Discord around the clock, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server.

Part two of The Family Realm. Uncle Darren builds a family Minecraft server on the old PC in the basement: Paper for speed, crossplay plugins so tablets and consoles join the same world as the PCs, and port forwarding on the family router. Milo's friend on the tablet gets in, Tess's console friends get in, and the castle has walls again.

Running a Minecraft server at home is a brilliant project, and Darren builds a lovely one. Then he goes home for Nana's roast, and the server stays with Robin, who has a job, a work call in a minute and a wall of red in the logs.

The Family Realm is a short animated saga from ElfHosted about one family's Minecraft world: from random public servers to a server at home, and on to a family world that runs itself. Each part stands on its own; watch them in order in the playlist on our channel. When the family moves to ElfHosted, Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, is Robin's sidekick: tuned on our apps and the way we run them, he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it. When Sam can't help, the ElfHosted team is on Discord around the clock, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server. Paper, Geyser and Floodgate are open source; ElfHosted is not affiliated with Mojang, Microsoft, the Paper project or GeyserMC.

A group scheduling poll to find the best date</video:title><video:description>Rallly is a group scheduling poll: offer a few dates, share one link, and everyone votes as a guest, with no account needed.

Run Rallly with ElfHosted, and the poll lives online, not on a computer at home, so everyone votes from their own phone wherever they are. We run it for you, keep it updated, and keep your poll links working when you send them. The poll links open for anyone you send them to, but sign-in is locked to your ElfHosted email, so only you can make or manage polls. Rallly itself is the work of the Rallly project.

What is Rallly? A group scheduling poll that answers the most tedious question in group planning: which date works for everyone? Offer a few dates and times, share one link, and everyone ticks the ones they can make, as a guest, with nothing to install and no account to create. The answers land in a grid so the best date stands out, then pick the winner and Rallly can let everyone know the confirmed time. It's a friendly, tidy Doodle alternative for a dinner, a games night, a family get-together or a meeting poll at work.

Hosted Rallly is new to ElfHosted and in early access. Start with a 7-day trial. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. If something's not right, Sam checks your apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it. Rallly is open source; ElfHosted is not affiliated with the Rallly project. You can support the Rallly developer through the link below. If you'd rather ask a human, the ElfHosted team is on Discord around the clock, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server. It's one place for support for every app you run with us, handled by professionals, instead of a GitHub issue, docs that may be out of date, or yet another Discord per project. Unlike a generic chatbot, which guesses and overcomplicates, Sam is tuned on these apps and the way we run them: he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it.

Part three of The Family Realm. The family server Uncle Darren built works, until a game update arrives before the crossplay plugin supports it and Tess's console friends are locked out. Minecraft crossplay not working is the most common way a family server goes quiet.

Then the router resets in a storm and forgets the port forward, the world lives on one old disk that clicks, and at eleven at night the answer in a forum thread is a different Minecraft server Java version. Robin can fix every one of these; each fix costs an evening he hasn't got. Darren's fixes are right, and each costs a weekend.

A Jellyfin-compatible media server for your apps</video:title><video:description>Remux is a Jellyfin-compatible media server: the Jellyfin apps you already use connect to it from anywhere, with an account each, playing your own sources.

Run Remux with ElfHosted: it lives on our servers, right beside your ElfHosted storage, so the folders you already keep with us plug straight in as sources, alongside your WebDAV shares and addon sources. It has its own secure address, so everyone signs in from their own Jellyfin app, on any screen, from anywhere, with no home server to keep plugged in and no ports to open.

What is Remux? A Jellyfin-compatible media server: it speaks the Jellyfin API, so the Jellyfin apps you already use on the telly, phone and web connect to it. Everyone gets a real account with their own watch history and Continue Watching row, and per-person exclusions give each account its own view of the same sources. Remux is the work of lostb1t and the Remux project, a brilliant tool built for tinkerers.

Hosted Remux is direct play only, so pick formats your device plays (browsers want H.264), and the ElfHosted build has no torrent or peer-to-peer support at all. ElfHosted runs it and keeps it updated; you bring your own sources, and ElfHosted does not provide content. Try it for seven days. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. Stuck? Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks you before fixing it. ElfHosted is not affiliated with the Remux project. When Sam can't help, real people from our team are on Discord around the clock, in a carefully moderated server.

An RSS feed generator for sites without a feed</video:title><video:description>RSS-Bridge is an RSS feed generator for websites that never published a feed. Hosted on ElfHosted, it pairs with your ElfHosted feed reader.

With hosted RSS-Bridge on ElfHosted, the bridge stays awake for a reader that checks every fifteen minutes, all night, so the feeds keep arriving. We run it and keep it updated for you. It sits behind your ElfHosted login, with no public address and no accounts to set up, and it pairs with a feed reader in your ElfHosted stack: FreshRSS, Miniflux and Fusion reach it over our internal network, with no login in the way. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. If something goes wrong, Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it. Unlike a generic chatbot, which guesses and overcomplicates, Sam is tuned on these apps and the way we run them: he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it.

What is RSS-Bridge? An RSS feed generator from the RSS-Bridge project, for sites that never published a feed, or dropped theirs. It ships with hundreds of bridges, each written for a particular site: pick the bridge, fill in what you want to follow, and it hands you an Atom, RSS or JSON feed. Your feeds are for an RSS reader you run on ElfHosted: the bridge makes the feed, your ElfHosted reader subscribes, and you read it wherever you like. A reader outside ElfHosted can't fetch these feeds in this version, because RSS-Bridge sits entirely behind your ElfHosted login.

RSS-Bridge is part of the ElfHosted Flex collection: a Flex plan runs several apps from the collection at once, and you swap which ones whenever you like. Every Flex plan starts with a 7-day trial.

A family counts the pile</video:title><video:description>Too many app subscriptions? One family counts theirs: photo storage, a password manager, notes, budgeting and a game server.

Part one of the Household Tech Saga. Robin and Maya sit down with the bank statement and count the app subscriptions: family photo storage, a password manager for family logins, a notes app, a budgeting app and the kids' game server. Each one is fine on its own. Together, it's subscription fatigue.

The bigger question is whose terms they're on. The family's photos and passwords live under someone else's rules and plans, so Robin starts wondering about running your own server at home: the hobby people search for as self-hosting. Next episode, he builds one.

Part two of the Household Tech Saga. Robin digs an old computer out of the cupboard and, with his friend Darren's very enthusiastic help, spends a weekend on home server setup: each app in its own container, a port opened on the router, and a certificate so the address is secure.

By Sunday night the old computer as a home server is running a photo library, a password vault, a notes app and Milo's game server. That's a home server for family life, and it's fun: you learn how the pieces fit, and every app runs the way you set it up. Running your own server at home is a brilliant hobby, and if you're curious about self-hosting for beginners, this is what the first weekend feels like.

Part three of the Household Tech Saga. Robin's server at home works, and he loves it. Then the home server updates start breaking things, a certificate runs out, and the disk fills up, all at midnight.

The home server backup ran every night, and nobody ever tried a restore. Then there's the power cut, remote access to a home server from outside the house, and Nana's phone, which says the connection isn't private. Lord Malware drops by to admire the open port. None of this is a reason not to run things yourself; it's the part of self-hosting maintenance nobody mentions, measured in evenings and weekends.

Part five of the Household Tech Saga. Robin loves his server at home; he doesn't love being its butler. So the family finds the elves: hosted open-source apps, the same ones Robin was running, kept running and updated for them on our servers instead of the cupboard.

Every app is backed up with daily backups, and when something goes wrong you pick a date and restore it yourself, with no waiting for Robin. Each app gets a secure address on its own subdomain, behind your ElfHosted login, so Nana's phone connects like everyone else's. It's the easy route to apps without a server: all of the self-hosting without a server of your own.

With ElfHosted Flex you pick apps from the Flex collection and swap one for another whenever you like; switching one off keeps its data. Almost every app and plan starts with a 7-day trial. The apps are open source; ElfHosted is not affiliated with their projects. The Household Tech Saga is a short animated series from ElfHosted about one family's tech: subscription soup, a server at home, the upkeep, and finding the elves. Each episode stands on its own; watch them in order in the playlist on our channel.

Short links and QR codes on your own address</video:title><video:description>Shlink is a URL shortener you own: tidy short links with QR codes and visit counts. Hosted on ElfHosted, your short links keep working.

With hosted Shlink on ElfHosted, your short links keep working: a short link is a promise it'll still resolve months from now, so we keep yours online around the clock, updated, and backed up daily, with restores you can do yourself. It comes with two addresses: your short links are public, so anyone you send one to just follows it, while your dashboard stays behind your ElfHosted login. The dashboard comes already connected, with its API key kept on our side, so there's nothing to paste. If something goes wrong, Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it. Unlike a generic chatbot, which guesses and overcomplicates, Sam is tuned on these apps and the way we run them: he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it.

What is Shlink? An open-source URL shortener from the Shlink project. Long, ugly addresses go in and tidy short links come out, with a short code you choose or a random one. Tag and group your links, generate QR codes on demand, and set a link to expire on a date or after a number of visits. Each link counts its visits, what referred them, and what kind of device followed it; visitor locations aren't recorded in this version. It's sized for personal and small-team use, and it's new to ElfHosted and in early access.

Shlink is part of the ElfHosted Flex collection: a Flex plan runs several apps from the collection at once, and you swap which ones whenever you like. Every Flex plan starts with a 7-day trial. ElfHosted is not affiliated with the Shlink project. You can support Shlink's developer through the link below. When Sam can't help, our team is on Discord around the clock, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server.

Markdown notes and a personal wiki</video:title><video:description>SilverBullet is a Markdown notes app and personal wiki with links and live queries. Hosted SilverBullet opens from anywhere, behind your login.

Run SilverBullet with ElfHosted, and it sits behind your ElfHosted login, with no extra account, at a secure address that works from anywhere, on any device. We keep it running and updated. Your space is a folder of plain Markdown files, backed up daily: open it with FileBrowser, or drop in notes from another app. Want something lighter for quick jottings? Put Memos beside it on your ElfHosted dashboard.

What is SilverBullet? A notes app for Markdown notes that doubles as a personal wiki, from the SilverBullet project. Link pages with double brackets and every page shows what links back to it. Tag pages and tasks, then pull them into any page with a live query, like every open task tagged house, written in SilverBullet's own scripting language, Space Lua. It's keyboard friendly, with a page picker, command palette, slash commands and a Vim mode, and it keeps a synced copy of your space in your browser, so you can keep writing offline.

Hosted SilverBullet is new to ElfHosted and in Early Access, and runs on ElfHosted Flex: a Flex plan runs several apps from the Flex collection at once, you swap which ones whenever you like, and every Flex plan starts with a 7-day trial. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. If something's not right, Sam checks your apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it.

Your addons, one subscription</video:title><video:description>The Stremio Addons Bundle puts ElfHosted's core Stremio addons on one subscription: one account, one bill, one dashboard.

Run your Stremio addons with ElfHosted: the Stremio Addons Bundle puts the core ones on a single Stremio addon subscription, with one account, one bill and one dashboard to switch them on. These are hosted Stremio addons: we run every one for you, keep them all updated and give each a secure address behind your ElfHosted sign-in, so there's no computer at home to keep on and no certificates or passwords to juggle. A TorBox account and a Usenet account are included, so there's nothing else to sign up for.

What is the Stremio Addons Bundle? AIOStreams combines the Stremio addons you use into one, AIOMetadata tidies your catalogues, there's poster artwork, and AIOManager looks after the addon settings on each of your Stremio accounts. JellyStreams is included too, so the household can browse in Jellyfin apps, with a profile each, kids' libraries by age rating and daily screen time. Rather not fiddle? The Wizard add-on (sold separately) is a one-time session where an ElfHosted expert sets it up with accounts you already hold.

The bundle starts with a 7-day trial. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. Stuck? Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks you before fixing it. ElfHosted hosts applications; we don't provide content, and you're responsible for using your own accounts lawfully.

A server with parental controls</video:title><video:description>Terraria for Families is an always on Terraria server with parental controls: who's on, how long they've played, and a bedtime.

Terraria server hosting from ElfHosted, built for families: the world keeps running day and night, backed up daily with restores you can do yourself, with no PC left on at home and nothing opened on your home network. The server runs TShock, from the TShock project, and every server comes with a private parent panel that ElfHosted built, by parents who run one at home. If something goes wrong, Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it. Unlike a generic chatbot, which guesses and overcomplicates, Sam is tuned on these apps and the way we run them: he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it.

What is Terraria for Families? A family Terraria server with parental controls, and only you can open the panel. See who's on now and how long each player has played today and this week. Set a bedtime with later hours on Friday and Saturday: everyone is warned in the game ten minutes before and again at one minute, then the world closes. Give a late pass for one night and tomorrow's bedtime still happens, or press Close it now. Invite friends with a ready made message holding the address, port and password, and get a notification on your phone when someone joins. These parental controls never read chat.

It's a dedicated server, so players join from the desktop edition of the game. Start with a 7-day trial. TShock is open source; ElfHosted is not affiliated with Re-Logic or the TShock project. When Sam can't help, our team is on Discord around the clock, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server. It's one place for support for every app you run with us, handled by professionals, instead of a GitHub issue, docs that may be out of date, or yet another Discord per project.

Hosted on ElfHosted, with nothing to run at home.

With hosted The Lounge on ElfHosted, your web IRC client stays connected on our servers, so there's no laptop left open and nothing to run at home. It has its own secure address you reach from anywhere, installs to your phone's home screen for push notifications, and the channels see our server, not your home connection. We keep it running and updated. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. If something goes wrong, Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it. Unlike a generic chatbot, which guesses and overcomplicates, Sam is tuned on these apps and the way we run them: he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it.

What is The Lounge? An open-source IRC client from The Lounge project that lives in your browser and stays connected to your chat networks, so messages wait for you. It's an IRC client and a bouncer in one, with channel history, link previews and file uploads: pick up the same chat and history on the laptop, the phone or the tablet. You sign in with your ElfHosted username and change the starting password in the docs on first login.

The Lounge is part of the ElfHosted Flex collection: a Flex plan runs several apps from the collection at once, and you swap which ones whenever you like. Every Flex plan starts with a 7-day trial. The Lounge is open source; ElfHosted is not affiliated with the project. And when Sam can't sort it, real people from our team are on Discord around the clock, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server.

Hosted on ElfHosted, the plan is there when you land.

With hosted Trip Planner on ElfHosted, the plan is there when you land: we run it for you and keep it updated, at your own address behind your ElfHosted login. It installs on your phone's home screen and keeps working offline when the signal drops. Send a read-only share link to anyone following along, with no login needed, or subscribe to the trip from your calendar so flight times and bookings show up where you already look. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. If something goes wrong, Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it. Unlike a generic chatbot, which guesses and overcomplicates, Sam is tuned on these apps and the way we run them: he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it.

What is Trip Planner? A collaborative travel itinerary app, powered by the open-source TREK project; ElfHosted runs the unmodified upstream TREK release. Every trip gets a map and a day-by-day plan, and everyone on the trip edits the same plan, live, so it works as a group trip planner. Add costs in whatever currency the receipt says and it works out who owes whom, with a shared packing list, a place for bookings and tickets, and a journal to fill in as you go. It's new to ElfHosted and in early access.

Trip Planner is part of the ElfHosted Flex collection: a Flex plan runs several apps from the collection at once, and you swap which ones whenever you like. Every Flex plan starts with a 7-day trial.

What is Tududi? An open-source task manager and to-do list app from developer Chris Veleris that thinks in projects. Tasks sit in projects, projects sit in areas of your life, and a Today view shows what's due now. Recurring tasks come back on their own, big jobs break into subtasks, and notes and tags sit beside the projects they belong to. On your ElfHosted dashboard it sits beside apps like Donetick for the family chores and Memos for quick thoughts.

Hosted Usenet-Ultimate is always on, on every device.

Run Usenet-Ultimate with ElfHosted: it arrives tuned to work with ElfHosted from day one, slots into your AIOStreams as a source, and runs on our servers at its own secure address, so Stremio reaches it on every device, with no box at home to keep running and no settings to redo after an update. ElfHosted sponsors its developer, who helps out in our Discord. It's one place for support for every app you run with us, handled by professionals, instead of a GitHub issue, docs that may be out of date, or yet another Discord per project.

What is Usenet-Ultimate? A polished Stremio addon for your own Usenet provider account. It pairs with NzbDAV, which plays straight from your provider, and gives every indexer you add its own filters, weighting and search behaviour. Its indexer stats show hit rate, result counts and speed for each one, so you can tune the ones that need it. Prefer fewer settings? UsenetStreamer is the set-and-forget choice; both are brilliant tools built for tinkerers.

Hosted Usenet-Ultimate starts with a 7-day trial. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. Stuck? Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks you before fixing it. You bring your own provider account and sources: ElfHosted hosts apps and does not provide content. Usenet-Ultimate is the work of DSmart33 and the Usenet-Ultimate project; ElfHosted sponsors its developer but is not affiliated with the project. Unlike a generic chatbot, which guesses and overcomplicates, Sam is tuned on these apps and the way we run them: he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it.

Run UsenetStreamer with ElfHosted: it runs on our servers at its own secure address, so Stremio reaches it on every device you use, with no box at home to keep on and no ports to open. It arrives already connected to your NzbDAV, with no extra password, and if you run AIOStreams, you can add UsenetStreamer as one of its sources. ElfHosted sponsors its developer, who helps out in our Discord. It's one place for support for every app you run with us, handled by professionals, instead of a GitHub issue, docs that may be out of date, or yet another Discord per project.

What is UsenetStreamer? A Stremio addon for your own Usenet provider account. It searches the indexers you configure, checks each post is complete before offering it, and hands your choice to NzbDAV, which plays it straight from your provider with nothing to store first. UsenetStreamer is a brilliant tool built for tinkerers.

Hosted UsenetStreamer starts with a 7-day trial. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. Stuck? Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks you before fixing it. You bring your own provider account and sources: ElfHosted hosts apps and does not provide content. UsenetStreamer is the work of Sanket9225 and the UsenetStreamer project; ElfHosted sponsors its developer but is not affiliated with the project. Unlike a generic chatbot, which guesses and overcomplicates, Sam is tuned on these apps and the way we run them: he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it.

Part two of The Password Reckoning. Robin spends one Sunday running Vaultwarden, an open-source, Bitwarden compatible password vault, on the old laptop behind the telly. The official Bitwarden apps work with it on phones, laptops and browsers. The phone apps need a secure address, so he adds a certificate and opens a door on the router. Done by lunch.

By teatime the whole family has a family password manager: a master password each, the apps filling in logins, the household logins shared (password sharing without passing notes around) and everyone's own kept private. Tess stops resetting her school password, and Nana's sticky notes go in the bin. Uncle Darren suggests a failover copy in his basement: one weekend, maybe three. And now Robin keeps it all: the laptop, the certificate and the door on the router.

The Password Reckoning is a short animated saga from ElfHosted about one family's passwords: from one password used on every site and sticky notes by the front door, to a vault on the laptop behind the telly, and on to a family vault the elves run. Each part stands on its own; watch them in order in the playlist on our channel. Vaultwarden is open source; ElfHosted is not affiliated with the Vaultwarden or Bitwarden projects. You can support Vaultwarden's developer through the link below. When the family moves to ElfHosted, Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, is Robin's sidekick: tuned on our apps and the way we run them, he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it. When Sam can't help, the ElfHosted team is on Discord around the clock, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server.

So the vault moves.

Part three of The Password Reckoning. The family's Vaultwarden runs on the old laptop behind the telly, until the Vaultwarden certificate renewal fails. The Bitwarden apps need a secure address, so Tess's app won't open the vault at school. Robin's on a work trip, and that same week a Vaultwarden security update comes out. Until Friday, every password the family has sits behind the telly, facing the internet. Uncle Darren's fix: script the renewals and patch it nightly from a pipeline, one weekend, then another.

So Robin moves the family's vault to hosted Vaultwarden on ElfHosted. The secure address the official Bitwarden apps need comes ready, so every phone and laptop in the family reaches it from anywhere. It's kept running, security fixes are kept up, and there's no server at your house facing the internet. Your vault is encrypted on your own device before it's saved: we host it, but we can't read it. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself, or ask Sam to do it on your OK.

Hosted Vaultwarden is part of the ElfHosted Flex collection: a Flex plan runs several apps from the collection at once, and you swap which ones whenever you like.

Snap the receipt the day you buy something and add it from your phone, wherever you are. We keep it running and updated, at a secure address on your ElfHosted dashboard, and its expiry alerts can go through your own hosted ntfy, straight to your phone. Warracker itself is the work of the Warracker project.

What is Warracker? A warranty tracker and receipt organizer. Each record holds the product, purchase date, warranty length, serial number, vendor and photo, with the receipt, invoice and manual attached. Before a warranty expires, it warns you by email or a push to your phone, as far ahead as you like, and when something breaks it tracks the claim from filed to resolved. Tags and search keep a big collection manageable, CSV import brings an existing spreadsheet in, and the whole household can have accounts with the right permissions. On the store it pairs with LubeLogger, which does the same job for vehicles.

A shareable family wishlist, surprises kept</video:title><video:description>Wishlist is a shareable family wishlist: family claim gifts without spoiling the surprise. Hosted on ElfHosted, anyone with the link opens it.

Run Wishlist with ElfHosted, and every list has a public link, so aunties and cousins open it from anywhere and claim a gift without an account or a password. Setup sits behind your ElfHosted login, so nobody else can take the admin account, and new sign-ups are invite-only. It stays online all year round, and we run it and keep it updated on your ElfHosted dashboard. Wishlist itself is the work of the Wishlist project.

What is Wishlist? A shareable family wishlist for birthdays, holidays and weddings. Paste a shop link and it pulls in the name, picture and price, or add items yourself with a note about size or colour. Family claim a gift so nobody doubles up, and the claims stay hidden from the list owner so the surprise survives. Turn a list into a gift registry, or invite family who want their own lists.

Hosted Wishlist is new on ElfHosted, in early access. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. If something looks wrong, Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it. Wishlist is part of the ElfHosted Flex collection: a Flex plan runs several apps from the collection at once, and you swap which ones whenever you like. Every Flex plan starts with a 7-day trial. Wishlist is open source; ElfHosted is not affiliated with the project. You can support its developer through the link below. And when Sam can't sort it, real people from our team are on Discord around the clock, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server.

Website monitoring and status pages</video:title><video:description>Uptime Kuma is website monitoring with a status page. Hosted Uptime Kuma watches from outside the house, so a power cut still sends the alert.

Run Uptime Kuma with ElfHosted, and it sees your home setup the way the rest of the internet does, so when the house goes dark, the alert still goes out, to your phone through Sam, or to your chat and email. Homelab monitoring works best from outside: a monitor on the same network goes down with the things it watches. We run it for you, keep it updated, and give it a secure address; want the status page on your own domain, there's a custom domain add-on. Unlike a generic chatbot, which guesses and overcomplicates, Sam is tuned on these apps and the way we run them: he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it.

What is Uptime Kuma? An open-source uptime monitoring dashboard from the Uptime Kuma project, and an open-source alternative to UptimeRobot. It checks your websites and services on a schedule, tracks how fast they answer, and spots the moment one goes down: check a website, look for a word on the page, test a game server's port, or let a device check in with a push monitor. A public status page tells the rest of the family what's up before they ask.

Hosted Uptime Kuma is part of the ElfHosted Flex collection: a Flex plan runs several apps from the collection at once, and you swap which ones whenever you like. Every Flex plan starts with a 7-day trial. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. If something's not right, Sam checks your apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it. Uptime Kuma is open source; ElfHosted is not affiliated with the Uptime Kuma project.

Then he goes home.

Part two of The Family Group Chat. Uncle Darren spends a Saturday building the family a chat server at home, on the little box in the hallway, next to the shoes. It's a Matrix chat server: Matrix is an open chat standard, so the family chats in free apps on any phone, tablet or laptop, and every chat is encrypted.

Milo is in the chat on the family tablet, saying hi to Nana and his cousins. Nana sends her very first photo (mostly her thumb), and even Tess admits one private group chat for the whole family is good. Darren leaves sign-ups open for now, so everyone can just join, and then he goes home for crumble. The encrypted family chat stays, and now it's Robin's: the sign-ups, the certificate and the updates, next to the shoes, with a day job.

The Family Group Chat is a short animated saga from ElfHosted about one family's chats: from a kid too young for the big chat apps and a cake photo sent to a stranger, to a chat server on the little box in the hallway, and on to a private family chat the elves run. Each part stands on its own; watch them in order in the playlist on our channel. When the family moves to ElfHosted, Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, is Robin's sidekick: tuned on our apps and the way we run them, he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it.

Part three of The Family Group Chat. The family's chat server on the little box in the hallway has a week: sign-ups were left open and a stranger called Goblin Lord is selling sunglasses in the family chat, Nana's photos fill its little card, and the certificate runs out, so the apps can't connect. Robin's away for work tomorrow. Uncle Darren's fix: close sign-ups, a bigger drive, scripted renewals and a mirror in his basement. One weekend. Maybe two.

So Robin moves the family to Family Chat on ElfHosted: a private family chat on its own private server, at a secure address. It's an invite only chat: there's no sign-up page, and each person gets their own one-time invite code that works once and expires after seven days. Every chat is an encrypted group chat from the moment it's made, so we can't read your messages or photos. Like any chat server, it still knows who is chatting and when, because it has to deliver them. It's kept running and updated, backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself. Family Chat costs $9 a month after a 7-day trial; your own domain is an optional add-on.

Family Chat runs Matrix, an open chat standard, on tuwunel, an open source Matrix server, unmodified. ElfHosted is not affiliated with or endorsed by the Matrix.org Foundation or the tuwunel project. When the family moves to ElfHosted, Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, is Robin's sidekick: tuned on our apps and the way we run them, he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it.

A family recipe and meal plan mess</video:title><video:description>What's for dinner, every night? Nana's recipe cards are fading and the shopping list is on the wrong phone.

Part one of What's for Dinner? Milo asks what's for dinner for the fifth time before lunch. The family recipes live in a cookbook, a pile of browser tabs and Nana's handwritten recipe cards, and her lasagne card is so faded she cooks it from memory. Tess wants to learn it, but the card just says 'cheese, plenty'.

Then Robin is at the shop with pasta, more pasta and no list, because the family shopping list is on Maya's phone, at home. Robin knows the fix: one recipe app for the family, with meal planning and a shared shopping list on every phone. He just needs a free weekend. Uncle Darren has loads of those.

Part two of What's for Dinner? Uncle Darren sets up Mealie, an open-source recipe manager and meal planner, on the old laptop in the hall cupboard, next to the hoover. Paste a recipe's link and it saves the ingredients, steps and photos, and Darren types in Nana's handwritten family recipes by hand.

The week goes on the meal planner's calendar (pizza on Fridays is now official), and one click puts the planned meals on the shopping list. Tess finally has real amounts for Nana's lasagne. Then Darren goes home, and the laptop is Robin's to run at home: the updates, the backups and the hoover. As long as it never needs him on a weeknight.

Part three of What's for Dinner? The family's Mealie runs on the old laptop in the hall cupboard, and the Mealie shopping list only loads on the home wifi, so Robin stands next to the eggs with a list that just spins. That week, one of the Mealie updates breaks it, and nobody has an evening to roll it back. By Thursday the laptop's battery has gone puffy, like a pillow. Uncle Darren's fix: open a port, add a certificate and rebuild it all on a mini PC, one weekend, then one more for backups.

So Robin moves to hosted Mealie on ElfHosted. It has a secure address of its own, so the shopping list opens on every phone at the shop. It's kept running, the updates are our job, it's backed up daily with restores you do yourself, and it's private behind your ElfHosted login. The laptop can retire before it pops.

Part four, the finale of What's for Dinner? Tess cooks Nana's lasagne from the app, and Robin isn't allowed in the kitchen. Nana's handwritten family recipes live in the family cookbook in hosted Mealie now: on Tess's phone in the kitchen, and on Nana's at her cottage, where she follows along from her armchair. Milo approves of the layers.

The week's shared shopping list was on everyone's phone: Robin got the lasagne sheets and Maya ticked off the cheese in the aisle, and nobody rang anybody from the shop. A Mealie update came out that week, and the elves kept up with it, so the hall cupboard stayed shut and Robin spent the evening on the sofa. That's family meal planning that just works.

Hosted Mealie is part of the ElfHosted Flex collection: a Flex plan runs several apps from the collection at once, and you swap which ones whenever you like.

Part one of Movie Night. It's Friday, family movie night: one telly, one remote, and one shared account for four people. Milo pressed play once and autoplay did the next forty. Tess's recommendations are all Milo's cartoons, and Milo finds Tess's scary film in continue watching, right where she left off.

One account means one shelf, one history and one set of picks for the whole house, and bedtime is Robin saying 'last one' against a countdown to the next episode. Robin knows what the family needs: kids profiles, a profile each with the kids' shelves matched to their age, real parental controls, and a bedtime that isn't him. He just needs a free evening.

Then he goes home.

Part two of Movie Night. Uncle Darren spends a Saturday on a home media server, on the box under the telly: media server plugins and add-ons for profiles, posters, subtitles and a kids' shelf, and a script that counts screen time. Friday works: kids profiles with their names on the telly, Tess's own shelf with no cartoons, and a timer at bedtime.

Then Darren goes home, and the box is Robin's. The router hands it a new address overnight, the telly can't find the server, and Robin has a work call at nine. Darren's fix is a fixed address, a local name and a proxy in front: one evening, two with certificates. It's the kind of build a Jellyfin or media server enthusiast loves, and every fix costs an evening.

Part four, the finale of The Family Group Chat. It's Sunday, and the whole family is in one private family chat: Nana's birthday cake photo reaches everyone (no thumb this time), Tess replies, and Milo asks about the candles. Milo wants his cousins in too, and they have their own family chat server. Robin asks Sam: Sam asks first, Robin taps Approve, the cousins add Robin's server to their list too, and the two family group chats can talk. Nobody else gets through. Family Chat is closed by default, and it only talks to the servers you list.

There's no box by the shoes and no strangers, and Robin is at the table eating cake, in the chat like everyone else. ElfHosted keeps Family Chat running, updated and backed up daily, with restores you can do yourself. Every chat is encrypted from the start, so we can't read your messages or photos; like any chat server, it still knows who is chatting and when, because it has to deliver them. Everyone joins with a free app, like FluffyChat or Element, on iPhone, Android, a tablet or in the browser. Family Chat costs $9 a month after a 7-day trial; your own domain is an optional add-on. For the full tour, watch our Family Chat explainer.

Family Chat runs Matrix, an open chat standard, on tuwunel, an open source Matrix server, unmodified. ElfHosted is not affiliated with or endorsed by the Matrix.org Foundation or the tuwunel project.

Part one of The Paper Mountain. The dishwasher dies mid-cycle, and Robin knows it's under warranty: the paperwork's in the drawer. The drawer holds three hundred receipts, four spare keys, a receipt for the kettle, a parking ticket, and a forty dollar gift card that ran out last Tuesday. That's household paperwork for most families.

Then the car's orange light comes back and the service book is somewhere in the glovebox, and Milo and Tess can't agree whose turn the bins are. Warranties, all the family's stuff, the car, the vouchers and the chores: a paper mountain, kept in Robin's head. Uncle Darren has the answer, five apps (a warranty tracker, a home inventory, a car maintenance log, a gift card wallet and a chore chart), and he runs all five on his rack. Robin knows the fix. He just needs a free weekend.

The Paper Mountain is a short animated saga from ElfHosted about one family's household admin: from the kitchen drawer, to five apps on a computer in the garage, and on to the same apps run by the elves.

Part two of The Paper Mountain. Robin spends one Saturday on the old computer in the garage and sets up five open-source apps: Warracker for warranties and receipts, HomeBox for what's in the house, LubeLogger for the car's service history, VoucherVault for gift cards, and Donetick for the chore rota. Five containers, five data folders and a sticky note of which port is which, done by teatime.

Maya finds the dishwasher receipt, snaps a photo and adds it from her phone, with the warranty beside it: covered till March. Donetick tells Milo it's his turn for the bins, and it doesn't do recounts. Uncle Darren suggests a reverse proxy, single sign-on and a mirror to his rack, two weekends, tops. And now Robin guards the hoard: five sets of updates, five backups, and one computer in a garage.

Warracker, HomeBox, LubeLogger, VoucherVault and Donetick are open source; ElfHosted is not affiliated with any of these projects, and you can support their developers through the links below.

Part three of The Paper Mountain. Five apps on the old garage computer means five sets of updates. Maya's at the till with a queue out the door and VoucherVault won't open, because it only works on the home wifi. Then the rain finds the garage: the computer is standing in a puddle, and the HomeBox home inventory and its backup are on that one computer. Uncle Darren's fix: bricks, a battery backup and a nightly sync to his rack, with Robin's Saturdays till spring.

So Robin moves all five to ElfHosted. Warracker, HomeBox, LubeLogger, VoucherVault and Donetick each get a secure address of their own, so they open at the till, at the mechanic's or in the garage. They're kept running and updated, backed up daily with self-service restores, and kept well away from the garage. Warracker's expiry alerts can go through your own hosted ntfy, straight to the family's phones. Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, is Robin's sidekick: tuned on our apps and the way we run them, he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it. When Sam can't help, the ElfHosted team is on Discord around the clock, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server.

All five are part of the ElfHosted Flex collection: a Flex plan runs several apps from the collection at once, and you swap which ones whenever you like; the bigger Flex plans run more at the same time. Every Flex plan starts with a 7-day trial. Warracker, HomeBox, LubeLogger, VoucherVault and Donetick are open source; ElfHosted is not affiliated with any of these projects.

Part four, the finale of The Paper Mountain. Robin puts in the dishwasher warranty claim from the sideline of Milo's match: the receipt Maya photographed is in Warracker at its own secure address, and it opens on his phone. The repair's booked for Thursday. Tess spends the gift card before it runs out because VoucherVault reminded her, the car's service is booked off LubeLogger's reminder, and the Donetick chore rota has settled the bins. Household admin, with nothing left in the drawer.

Then Milo deletes every chore in Donetick. Robin asks Sam from the sideline: Sam shows the backups he can see and asks first, Robin taps Approve, and the chores are back as they were last night, bins and all. Every app on ElfHosted is backed up daily, and you can restore a backup yourself from your dashboard, or ask Sam. A restore puts the whole app back to the date you pick, so whatever was added since then is gone. Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, is Robin's sidekick: tuned on our apps and the way we run them, he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it.

Part one of The Always-On Assistant. Milo is the only one who misses the school trip: the permission slip was in a school email, the fourth one that week, under the bake sale. Tess's kit is in the wash on kit day, and Nana can't remember whether ten o'clock was her appointment or the bins.

Robin has the skill to sort it all out. What he hasn't got is the hours: he's the family's calendar, alarm clock and memory, and he's in meetings till six. Family organisation runs on a pile of little jobs, and there's only one of him. Maya says he needs a personal assistant. Uncle Darren says he needs an AI agent, running at home, round the clock.

Part two of The Always-On Assistant. Uncle Darren sets up an AI agent at home: a little computer in the study, running round the clock, linked to Robin's messages, with Darren's own API key plugged in for now. Robin tells it the family's week once: kit on Tuesdays, bins on Wednesdays, Nana at ten on Thursday.

At seven the next morning, the first morning brief lands. Tess's kit is by the door, washed, and Nana gets her call before she's had her tea. It's a lovely build, and an always-on AI agent is a brilliant thing to tinker with on a home server. Then Darren goes home, and the box, the key and the updates are Robin's to keep.

The Always-On Assistant is a short animated saga from ElfHosted about one family's AI agent: from an overflowing family inbox to an agent on a little computer in the study, and on to an assistant that runs itself. Each part stands on its own; watch them in order in the playlist on our channel. When the family moves to ElfHosted, Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, is Robin's sidekick: tuned on our apps and the way we run them, he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it. When Sam can't help, the ElfHosted team is on Discord around the clock, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server.

Part three of The Always-On Assistant. Running an AI agent at home was lovely for a week. Then Milo needed the plug for his tablet, and the seven o'clock morning brief never came. Robin is on the early train and can't reach it from there.

After an update, Robin reinstalls it at midnight, and the agent forgets all it knew about the family. Darren's API key runs dry, so the next one is on Robin's card, and nobody knows what the API costs of a busy week will be. And the door Darren opened on the router so Robin could check it from work: who else can knock on it? Robin can fix every one of these on his home server. Each fix costs an evening, and the always-on AI agent was meant to save him time.

The Always-On Assistant is a short animated saga from ElfHosted about one family's AI agent: from an overflowing family inbox to an agent on a little computer in the study, and on to an assistant that runs itself.

Part four of The Always-On Assistant. Three Mondays running, no morning brief: the little computer in the study is asleep, forgetful or out of credit. Maya says the assistant shouldn't need an assistant. So Robin sets up Hermes Agent with ElfHosted.

Hosted Hermes Agent runs around the clock, so its scheduler fires on time, and its memory and skills survive restarts and upgrades. It sits behind your ElfHosted login with no second password, and the AI is included on an allowance that suits everyday use; heavy or long-running agent work goes through it faster, and you can add your own provider whenever you like. It joins your Family Chat, and reaches you on Telegram, Discord, Email, WhatsApp, Signal and iMessage. Telegram and Discord take a token; WhatsApp needs a one-time pairing, and the team on Discord walks you through it. Then Sam restarts Hermes on Robin's OK, and a minute later his always-on AI agent says hello as a WhatsApp AI assistant.

It's kept updated and backed up daily, with restores you can do yourself, and nothing is left running in the study. Hermes Agent is open source, from Nous Research; ElfHosted is not affiliated with Nous Research. Start with a 7-day trial. When the family moves to ElfHosted, Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, is Robin's sidekick: tuned on our apps and the way we run them, he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it. When Sam can't help, the ElfHosted team is on Discord around the clock, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server.

Part five, the finale of The Always-On Assistant. Monday morning, and Robin is in the front row of Milo's assembly instead of on his phone. The morning brief landed in the family chat at seven: kit tomorrow, bins on Wednesday, and ring Nana about Thursday. Tess's kit was packed the night before, and Nana was twenty minutes early.

Overnight, hosted Hermes Agent had an update; its memory and skills came through untouched, and Robin slept through it. The little computer in the study just runs the Hermes desktop app now, pointed at his always-on AI agent, with nothing to keep alive at home. Robin told it once, it remembered, and he isn't the family's memory any more. That's an AI assistant for families: a personal AI assistant that runs around the clock, behind your ElfHosted login, with the AI included on an allowance that suits everyday use.

Hermes is kept updated and backed up daily, with restores you can do yourself. Hermes Agent is open source, from Nous Research; ElfHosted is not affiliated with Nous Research. Start with a 7-day trial. When the family moves to ElfHosted, Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, is Robin's sidekick: tuned on our apps and the way we run them, he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it.

Jellyfin with Gelato and AIOStreams</video:title><video:description>JellyGoblin is hosted Jellyfin with your own AIOStreams, ready for the Gelato plugin, so any Jellyfin app plays your addon results.

Run JellyGoblin with ElfHosted: Jellyfin and your own private AIOStreams arrive already running and connected, and our guide walks you through adding the Gelato plugin and pointing it at AIOStreams. There's no box under the telly to keep alive. Jellyfin's updates, HTTPS and uptime are ours to handle, and every Jellyfin app connects at its own secure address from anywhere: the official Jellyfin apps, Infuse, Swiftfin and others. ElfHosted sponsors Gelato's developer. A TorBox account and a Usenet account come in the bundle, with Debridge pulling them together.

What is JellyGoblin? A real Jellyfin server, so you keep the plugin ecosystem, your own users and Jellyfin's parental controls, with Gelato showing your AIOStreams results as Jellyfin movie and series libraries. It's sized for two HD screens or one 4K at a time on shared hardware, and it plays files directly with no transcoding, so pick formats your devices play. JellyGoblin Pro doubles that to four HD or two 4K, and adds Jellystat for stats, Jellyfin Accounts and Wizarr for family accounts and invites. What each plan includes is listed on its store page. Prefer purpose-built household controls such as screen time? Look at JellyStreams.

JellyGoblin and JellyGoblin Pro each start with a 7-day trial. They're backed up daily, and you can restore them yourself whenever you need to. Stuck? Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it. Unlike a generic chatbot, which guesses and overcomplicates, Sam is tuned on these apps and the way we run them: he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it. If you'd rather ask a person, the ElfHosted team is on Discord around the clock, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server.

Here's how the tiers differ.

A Personal Media Stack is a media server for your personal collection, running around the clock without hardware at home. You pick hosted Plex, hosted Jellyfin or Emby, with library tools that keep your collection organised, and it all arrives connected and ready to use. You bring your own storage accounts; ElfHosted runs the apps, not your library, so you never pay us for terabytes.

The tiers differ in how many screens play at once and in the hardware underneath. Starter is the entry tier on shared hardware. Hobbit plays two 4K or four HD screens at once, Ranger four 4K or eight HD, and Halfling eight 4K or sixteen HD, all on semi-dedicated hardware, with a slice of CPU and memory reserved for your stack. Nazgul matches Halfling's size on dedicated hardware that's yours alone, with 4K transcoding. To pick, count the screens that play at once. Hobbit starts with a 7-day trial, and moving up to a bigger tier later keeps your setup. Already running a stack? The Plex add-on puts a second media server beside it, reading the same library on the same tier (bring your own Plex Pass).

Plex, Jellyfin and Emby are made by their own teams; ElfHosted is not affiliated with them, and ElfHosted hosts applications, not content. Every app is backed up daily, with self-service restores. If something goes wrong, Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it. Unlike a generic chatbot, which guesses and overcomplicates, Sam is tuned on these apps and the way we run them. If you'd rather ask a person, our team is on Discord around the clock, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server: one place for support for every app you run with us.

ElfHosted Flex is one plan for lots of little apps: recipes, passwords, notes, wikis, RSS, dashboards, habit trackers and more, all from the Flex collection. Every app in the collection comes with every Flex plan. You pick the apps, we run them, and you swap what's running whenever you like.

The plans differ only in how many apps run at once: Flex runs four, Flex Plus ten, and Flex Pro eighteen. Install as many as you like; switching one off frees its slot straight away, keeps its data, and doesn't change your bill, so you can switch it back on later and pick up where you left off. Every plan starts with a 7-day trial, and you can move to a bigger plan when you need more. The how-to video and the docs show the Apps page where you swap them.

These are apps without a server: no hardware at home, no containers or certificates to look after. Each app gets HTTPS on your own subdomain, behind your ElfHosted login, with monitoring and updates done for you. Every app is backed up daily, with self-service restores. If something goes wrong, Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it; unlike a generic chatbot, he's tuned on these apps and the way we run them. If you'd rather ask a person, our team is on Discord around the clock, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server. The apps are made by their own open-source communities, and ElfHosted is not affiliated with them.

Part one of The Family Group Chat. Milo's cousins have a family group chat, and the app says he's too young to join: it's thirteen and up. That chat app age limit leaves him waiting outside the door while everyone else chats.

And the rest of the family is scattered. Tess's chat app wants a face scan to check her age, for a group chat. Nana's chats are on another app, and Uncle Barry's chain messages are on all of them, sent to everyone. Twice. Nana sends her cake photo to the family, and a man called Kevin says it looks lovely. Maya wants one private family chat, just the family, Milo included. Robin knows the fix, a kids group chat that's really the whole family's: their own private chat server. He just doesn't have the weekend to build it. Uncle Darren does.

The Family Group Chat is a short animated saga from ElfHosted about one family's chats: from a kid too young for the big chat apps and a cake photo sent to a stranger, to a chat server on the little box in the hallway, and on to a private family chat the elves run. Each part stands on its own; watch them in order in the playlist on our channel. When the family moves to ElfHosted, Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, is Robin's sidekick: tuned on our apps and the way we run them, he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it. When Sam can't help, the ElfHosted team is on Discord around the clock, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server.

Your Stremio addons in Chillio</video:title><video:description>ChilliBridge turns your Stremio addons into ChillLink sources for the Chillio player. Hosted on ElfHosted, it has its own secure address from day one.

Run ChilliBridge with ElfHosted: it has its own secure address from day one, so there's no Node.js install, no Caddy, no domain, no Cloudflare token and no DNS record to keep pointed at your home. Chillio just connects. Your plan comes with your own MediaFlow Proxy: add its address and password once in ChilliBridge, and your provider sees one address, yours at ElfHosted. The setup page sits behind your ElfHosted login, and we keep it running and updated.

What is ChilliBridge? An adapter between Stremio addons and Chillio, a media player app with its own addon format, ChillLink. Paste in a Stremio addon's address, and ChilliBridge hands you an address to add in Chillio, so your Stremio addons show up as Chillio sources in its own player. ChilliBridge is open source (MIT); ElfHosted is not affiliated with Chillio.

Hosted ChilliBridge starts with a 7-day trial. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. Stuck? Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it. Unlike a generic chatbot, which guesses and overcomplicates, Sam is tuned on these apps and the way we run them: he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it. If you'd rather ask a person, the ElfHosted team is on Discord around the clock, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server. It's one place for support for every app you run with us, handled by professionals, instead of a GitHub issue, docs that may be out of date, or yet another Discord per project. ElfHosted hosts applications; we don't provide content, and you're responsible for using your own accounts lawfully.

A paste bin and short links on your own address</video:title><video:description>MicroBin is a paste bin for text, files and short links, with QR codes. Hosted on ElfHosted, only you upload, and anyone with the link opens it.

Run MicroBin with ElfHosted, and it lives on an address of its own, kept running, so the link still works when it's clicked. The upload page, your list, editing and removing stay behind your ElfHosted login, so only you create uploads and nobody you send a link to can delete one, while the people you share with just open the link, with no account. MicroBin itself is the work of the MicroBin project.

What is MicroBin? A small paste bin with a URL shortener built in. Paste text, drop in files, or shorten a link, and every upload gets an easy address made of animal names and a QR code. Lock one with a password, or set it to expire. Treat a paste link as public, and use a password or a short expiry for a paste you wouldn't want passed on.

Hosted MicroBin sits on your ElfHosted dashboard, and we keep it updated. It's new on ElfHosted, in early access. MicroBin is part of the ElfHosted Flex collection: a Flex plan runs several apps from the collection at once, and you swap which ones whenever you like. Every Flex plan starts with a 7-day trial. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. If something's not right, Sam checks your apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it. MicroBin is open source; ElfHosted is not affiliated with the project. You can support MicroBin's developer through the link below. If Sam can't sort it, real people from our team answer on Discord around the clock, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server. It's one place for support for every app you run with us, handled by professionals, instead of a GitHub issue, docs that may be out of date, or yet another Discord per project.

Read along with your own audiobooks</video:title><video:description>Storyteller is an audiobook read along app: it joins an ebook and its audiobook, so each sentence lights up as the narrator reads it.

Transcription is the slow part. Hosted Storyteller on ElfHosted starts on our shared transcription service, included, with nothing to set up: no key, no extra account, no card. It's there to get you started; for a big batch of books, ask our team on Discord to switch you to a cloud transcription service of your own. The Storyteller apps reach its own secure address from anywhere, with no port-forwarding, and it works alongside Audiobookshelf in your ElfHosted stack. We run it for you and keep it updated, so there's nothing to install at home.

What is Storyteller? An open-source audiobook read along tool from the Storyteller project. It takes an ebook and its audiobook, both ones you own, and aligns them into one read-along book. Press play and each sentence lights up as the narrator reads it, or switch between reading and listening without losing your place: ebook and audiobook sync, for the books you already have. The result is a standard EPUB 3 with Media Overlays, so you can read it in the Storyteller apps for iPhone and Android, or in any ebook reader that supports read-along books. Storyteller doesn't include any books: bring your own.

It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. If something goes wrong, Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it. Start with a 7-day trial.

A Stremio addon with a profile each</video:title><video:description>StreamNZB is a Stremio addon for Usenet with its own catalogues, a profile each and age caps. Hosted on ElfHosted, it's always on, on every device.

Run StreamNZB with ElfHosted: it runs on our servers at its own secure address, so every profile reaches it on every device, at home or away, with no box behind the telly to keep awake and no ports to open. Its settings page sits behind your ElfHosted login, and if you run AIOStreams, you can add StreamNZB as one of its sources. We keep it updated, and ElfHosted sponsors its developer. A Usenet account and a TorBox account are included; you bring your own indexers.

What is StreamNZB? A Usenet Stremio addon that searches the indexers you add and plays the result as one program, with nothing else to run beside it. It brings its own catalogues and search, and a profile for each person in the house, with parental controls: an age cap per profile hides what's over it. You bring your own indexers; what each plan includes is listed on the store page. StreamNZB is a brilliant tool built for tinkerers.

Hosted StreamNZB starts with a 7-day trial. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. Stuck?

An AI chat app for the whole household</video:title><video:description>OvertChat is an AI chat app for the whole household, with a login for everyone. Hosted on ElfHosted, with the AI included.

With hosted OvertChat on ElfHosted, there's no server to run and no model to host: we keep it running and updated on an instance of your own, with an address the OvertChat apps for iOS and Android reach from anywhere. The AI is included, on a daily allowance for everyday chat, so there's no provider account to sign up for and no API key to find, and you can add your own provider alongside it for more models or heavier use. It's locked down from the start: only you can reach the sign-up page, behind your ElfHosted login.

What is OvertChat? A clean, uncluttered AI chat app, and family AI done simply: you're the administrator, and you create a login for each person, so everyone keeps their own conversations. Start a chat on the laptop and carry on in the phone apps. Own providers include OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, DeepSeek and OpenRouter.

It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. If something goes wrong, Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it. Start with a 7-day trial. ElfHosted is not affiliated with the OvertChat project. Rather talk to people than AI? When Sam can't help, our team is on Discord around the clock, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server.

A gift card tracker with expiry reminders</video:title><video:description>VoucherVault is a gift card tracker for vouchers and loyalty cards, with expiry reminders. Hosted on ElfHosted, it's online around the clock.

Run VoucherVault with ElfHosted, and it has a secure address of its own, so the barcode is on your phone at the till, wherever the shop is. It stays online around the clock, so the expiry reminders reach you, not a laptop switched off in a cupboard. We run it for you and keep it updated, and your card codes stay behind your ElfHosted login. VoucherVault itself is the work of the VoucherVault project.

What is VoucherVault? A gift card tracker and voucher tracker for the cards that would otherwise expire unused in a drawer or a forgotten email. Record each gift card, voucher or loyalty card with its value, code and expiry date, mark it partly or fully spent as you go, and it keeps the balance. Upload the card image or barcode so it's ready at the till, and set up Apprise notifications for your account to be warned before a card expires. Run a home dashboard or Home Assistant? Its stats endpoint can show your balances there using an API token. On first launch, read the admin password from the logs in your ElfHosted dashboard, then change it.

Hosted VoucherVault is new to ElfHosted and in Early Access. It's part of the ElfHosted Flex collection: a Flex plan runs several apps from the collection at once, and you swap which ones whenever you like. Every Flex plan starts with a 7-day trial.

Hosted beside your Plex.

Run PlexTraktSync with ElfHosted and it sits beside your ElfHosted Plex around the clock, listening for plays, so whatever you finish is marked on Trakt as it happens, with no laptop to keep awake. You set it up once in a web terminal at its own address, behind your ElfHosted login, and it talks to your Plex inside your stack. We keep it updated, it's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. The hosted watcher is for a Plex you run on ElfHosted.

What is PlexTraktSync? An open-source tool from the PlexTraktSync project that keeps your Plex server and your Trakt account in step: watched status, ratings and watchlists, plus your Plex collection on Trakt. Its watcher, a Plex Trakt scrobbler, marks plays on Trakt as you watch, and a full sync, run from the web terminal, catches up your history and lists. None of it needs a Plex Pass or Trakt VIP.

Start with a 7-day trial. Stuck? Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it. Unlike a generic chatbot, which guesses and overcomplicates, Sam is tuned on these apps and the way we run them: he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it.

A markdown wiki with Git sync</video:title><video:description>Wiki.js is a markdown wiki with two-way Git sync, for documentation, handbooks and notes you want to keep in version control.

Run Wiki.js with ElfHosted, and it starts behind your ElfHosted login, so only you can reach it, with the database it needs set up and running. Ready to publish? One switch in ElfBot opens it to people without an ElfHosted account, and Wiki.js's own permissions keep a private section private while the rest goes public. We run it for you, keep it updated, and give it a secure address. Wiki.js itself is the work of the Wiki.js project.

What is Wiki.js? An open-source markdown wiki. Write pages in the browser and arrange them in a tree of folders. Switch on two-way Git sync and every save becomes a commit, while changes pushed from your laptop update the wiki. Search finds pages fast, and every page keeps its history, with changes side by side and a one click restore. Each page picks its own editor, so it suits a documentation wiki for a project, a household manual, or a personal knowledge base kept in a repo you control.

Hosted Wiki.js is backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. If something looks wrong, Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it.

Your app files in a browser tab</video:title><video:description>FileBrowser is a web file manager: browse folders, upload files and edit settings in a browser tab. It comes with every ElfHosted account.

FileBrowser comes with every ElfHosted account: your apps' folders are already there, in a browser tab, behind your ElfHosted login, with no extra password and nothing at home to open up. Your config, logs and backups are all in it, so you can read a log, fix a setting, or upload a world to your game server. We keep it running and updated, alongside the apps you run with us, and it's all backed up daily, so you can restore it yourself whenever you need to.

What is FileBrowser? An open-source web file manager from the FileBrowser project: browse your folders, upload files and edit text files from any browser, no terminal needed. For mounting your ElfHosted storage on your own computer, there's WebDAV too; the docs cover both.

If something goes wrong, Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it. Unlike a generic chatbot, which guesses and overcomplicates, Sam is tuned on these apps and the way we run them: he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it. If you'd rather ask a person, our team is on Discord around the clock, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server: one place for support for every app you run with us, instead of a GitHub issue, docs that may be out of date, or yet another Discord per project. Every ElfHosted plan starts with a 7-day trial. FileBrowser is open source; ElfHosted is not affiliated with the FileBrowser project.

Ratings on your Plex and Jellyfin posters</video:title><video:description>RPDB puts ratings right on the posters in your Plex, Jellyfin or Emby library. Hosted on ElfHosted, it keeps running beside your library.

With hosted RPDB on ElfHosted, RPDB keeps running with us, beside the library storage you've connected, so the films and series you add get their rating posters too, with no computer at home to keep switched on. Its settings page sits behind your ElfHosted login, and we keep it updated for you. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to.

What is RPDB? The app we run is RPDB Folders, from the Rating Poster Database project. It watches your movie and series folders and writes poster and background images with the rating set into the artwork beside each title, so Plex, Jellyfin and Emby show the score right on your poster wall, with no player plugin. You bring your own RPDB API key; in Plex, switch on "Use local assets" for those libraries. Start with a 7-day trial.

If something goes wrong, Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it.

AIOStreams with MediaFlow Proxy gives you two things, already wired together. AIOStreams, the addon of addons, collects results from the Stremio addons and services you use into one list, filtered, sorted and laid out your way. MediaFlow Proxy is your own Stremio proxy, and it does one job: every stream passes through it, so your provider sees one address, yours at ElfHosted, instead of every device in the house. AIOStreams arrives wired to it: set one password, use it in both, and your streams pass through our network instead of your home upload.

Why pick MediaFlow Proxy? It's for when proxying is all you want, with your own provider account. It has its own speed test page at your own address, it starts with room for a 4K stream, boosters add more for busier evenings, and other addons that support MediaFlow Proxy can use it too. Want more tools alongside the proxy, like your own provider library and your lists inside Stremio? That's the AIOStreams with StremThru plan. Bring the debrid or Usenet services you already use; this plan includes neither.

Both apps are kept running and updated in our data centre. The AIOStreams configure page sits behind your ElfHosted login, your settings are in the nightly backups, and you can restore them yourself. It's your own private instance, not the shared public one, so there are no rate limits holding you back. Start with a 7-day trial. Stuck? Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, is tuned on these apps and the way we run them: he safely reads your actual logs, tells you what's wrong and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it.

A toolkit for your Stremio addons</video:title><video:description>StremThru is a toolkit for your Stremio addons: add your provider to addons, put them in order, and proxy streams through one address.

Run StremThru with ElfHosted: it runs at a steady address in our data centre, so your provider sees one address, yours at ElfHosted, wherever the family watches. There's no home PC, certificate or reverse proxy to keep going. Your users and provider keys go in one setting in your ElfHosted dashboard, and StremThru restarts itself to pick them up. The configure pages sit behind your ElfHosted login. It starts with room for one 4K stream or two in HD, and boosters add more for busier evenings.

What is StremThru? A companion toolkit for the Stremio addons you already use, rather than an addon of its own. It wraps an addon to add your provider where the addon doesn't support it, puts your addons in order or switches one off for a while (Sidekick, which signs in with your Stremio account), browses your own provider library inside Stremio, shows your lists as catalogues, and works as a Stremio proxy, so streams pass through one address. ElfHosted also runs a public StremThru you can try; the proxy needs your own. Using AIOStreams too? The AIOStreams with StremThru plan comes with both, already wired together.

Run Watcharr with ElfHosted and your watched list stays put: we keep it running and updated, and your lists, ratings and users come through every upgrade. It has its own secure address behind your ElfHosted login, so everyone checks their list from any phone or browser, and if you run Jellyfin or Plex with us too, Watcharr connects to it inside your stack and brings in what you've already watched. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to.

What is Watcharr? An open-source watched list and movie tracker. Track the films, TV shows and anime you've watched, are watching, or plan to watch, rate them and add notes, and browse a discover page for what's next. It works as a TV show tracker for the whole household: everyone gets their own account, list and ratings. Bring your history with you from Jellyfin or Plex, or from Trakt, TMDB and MyAnimeList exports. Watcharr is a tracker: it doesn't include any films or shows.

Run your ebook and audiobook server with ElfHosted, and your comics too: the SuperBookWorm Bundle puts a reader for every format on one shared storage, so you manage one library instead of a copy per app. Grimmory and Calibre Web look after the ebooks, Audiobookshelf the audiobooks, Komga and Kavita the comics and manga, BookOrbit keeps your place in step between the browser, a Kobo and KOReader, and Shoko gives your own Plex, Jellyfin or Emby the right anime episode numbers through its plugin (the media server isn't part of the bundle).

The apps pass things along to each other. Chaptarr keeps your ebooks and audiobooks in one collection, narrators and editions included, and files the audiobooks where Audiobookshelf listens; Kapowarr does the same for comic series in Komga and Kavita; BookOrbit imports straight from Grimmory, Calibre Web Automated and Audiobookshelf. There's more in the bundle than most people use, so the rarely-used apps start switched off; switch on whatever you like, whenever you like. The full list is on the store page.

One address, your ElfHosted login in front of the web apps, and phone apps that reach your library from anywhere at a secure address. Bring your own books: upload them, or connect cloud storage you already have. The bundle includes no books, audiobooks or comics. Everything is kept running and updated for you, and backed up daily, with restores you can do yourself. It's one subscription for less than the apps cost separately, with a 7-day trial. Stuck?

A music scrobbler for your listening stats</video:title><video:description>Koito is a music scrobbler that turns every track you play into listening stats and charts. Hosted on ElfHosted, your phone reaches it from anywhere.

With hosted Koito on ElfHosted, your phone scrobbles to a secure address we keep up around the clock, certificate and all, so there's no missing month in your charts. Your charts, history and API key sit behind your ElfHosted login; only the scrobble address is open, because a phone can't sign in through a browser, and it accepts nothing without your key. Run Navidrome with us too, and it scrobbles straight to Koito, which can pull album art from your own library. We keep it running and updated, it's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to.

What is Koito? A modern, themeable music scrobbler from the Koito project that records every track you play and turns it into listening stats: top artists, top albums, hours listened and a history you can scroll back through. It speaks the ListenBrainz API, so Navidrome, most phone players and desktop bridges can scrobble to it, and it imports your old history from Spotify, Last.fm, ListenBrainz and Maloja. It can also pass each scrobble on to Last.fm or ListenBrainz, so you can try it alongside the scrobbler you already use. Koito is still moving fast upstream; if you'd rather have the older, steadier option, Maloja is on ElfHosted too, and each imports from the other.

Palworld server hosting from ElfHosted, built for families: the world and everyone's bases stay up whether or not the PC that started them is on, at a fixed address and port your kids' friends save once. It runs on backed up storage with restores you can do yourself, with no PC left on at home and no port forwarding to set up. It's the standard Palworld dedicated server, so everyone joins with an ordinary Palworld client on Steam, with nothing to install. If something goes wrong, Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it. Unlike a generic chatbot, which guesses and overcomplicates, Sam is tuned on these apps and the way we run them: he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it.

Every server comes with a private parent panel that ElfHosted built, by parents who host these at home, and only you can open it with your ElfHosted login. These parental controls show who's on now, and how long each player has played today and across the past week. Set a bedtime, with different hours for school nights and Friday and Saturday (pick your timezone first): everyone is warned in the game ten minutes before and again at one minute, then anyone still playing is sent home, and anyone who rejoins is sent home again within moments, until morning. Palworld has no way to bar the door outright, so bedtime is a repeated closing rather than a padlock, and we'd rather say so. Give a late pass for one night and tomorrow's bedtime still happens, or press Close it now.

With ElfHosted on your phone's home screen and notifications allowed, you get a message when someone joins or leaves, and several friends arriving at once is one message.

Part three of Movie Night. The family's media server lives on the box under the telly, and it has made Robin the household's help desk. An update breaks the kids' plugin and Milo's shelf fills with grown-up films; the bedtime script stops, so bedtime is Maya shouting up the stairs; and Robin, on a work trip, takes the calls. Uncle Darren's fix: pin every plugin, write tests and rebuild it in containers. One weekend, maybe two.

So Robin moves movie night to JellyStreams, the household layer ElfHosted builds, in the Jellyfin apps the family already uses. Kids profiles with a tap of your own face, a PIN on the grown-ups' profiles, your place following you from room to room, kids' shelves matched to their age, and parental controls as content limits by what's in a film, not just its rating. It's kept running and updated, backed up daily, and the controls sit behind your ElfHosted login.

JellyStreams runs only on ElfHosted, and comes with the AIOMagic Bundle (7-day trial). Movie Night is a short animated saga from ElfHosted about one family's Friday nights: from one account for everyone, to a media server on the box under the telly, and on to JellyStreams, with a profile each. Each part stands on its own; watch them in order. Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, is Robin's sidekick: tuned on our apps and the way we run them, he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it. When Sam can't help, the ElfHosted team is on Discord around the clock, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server.

Part four, the finale of Movie Night. Friday, popcorn, and nobody has asked Robin for a server address all week. Everyone taps their own face in the Jellyfin apps on the telly; Tess's film picks up where she stopped it on the bus, and her recommendations are her own. When Milo picks a film over his limit, it asks a parent instead of playing: Sam sends Robin the request with what's in it, and Robin taps Allow for just that one, without leaving the sofa.

Screen time does the bedtime: a warning before Milo's daily budget runs out, then nothing new starts, and every Sunday a note of what everyone watched. Milo goes to bed by himself, and Robin watches a whole film for once. That's family movie night with parental controls that sit in the household, not in Robin's evenings. For the full tour, watch our JellyStreams explainer.

Your media server, without a home server</video:title><video:description>Hosted Plex on ElfHosted: your Plex Media Server runs in our data centre, on while you're away, with its own secure address. No home server.

Run Plex with ElfHosted and your Plex Media Server lives in our data centre instead of a cupboard at home: it's on while you're away, it doesn't share your home upload, and we keep it running and updated. Claim it from your ElfHosted dashboard with a claim code from your Plex account, and every Plex app on the telly, phone and browser finds it at its own secure address. Hosted Plex is a Plex server without a home server: no hardware to buy, no ports to forward.

What is Plex? A media server for your own films, home videos and music, with Plex apps on nearly every telly, phone and browser. You bring your Plex Pass (or Plex's Remote Play Pass, which Plex requires for any remote server) and your own cloud storage; your library lives in your storage, not with us. If Plex's database ever gets in a muddle, one setting runs Plex's database repair on the next restart. Hardware transcoding is available with a Plex Pass on Hobbit plans and above, as a fallback for devices that can't play a file directly; 4K is direct play only. ElfHosted hosts applications; we don't provide content. A media server is for your own media: home videos, things you own and have backed up, public domain and Creative Commons recordings.

Plex comes in an ElfHosted Personal Media Stack, where you pick Plex as your media server, and every stack starts with a 7-day trial. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. If something goes wrong, Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it. Unlike a generic chatbot, which guesses and overcomplicates, Sam is tuned on these apps and the way we run them: he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it.

A hosted home inventory app, kept off-site</video:title><video:description>HomeBox is a home inventory app with QR labels for every box. Hosted HomeBox keeps it off-site and reachable from your phone, wherever you are.

What is HomeBox? A home inventory app for the things you own, made by the HomeBox project. Items live in locations, from the garage down to the top drawer, and each one can carry a photo, the receipt, a serial number and warranty details, so it doubles as a warranty tracker. Print QR labels, stick them on the box, and one scan with your phone shows what's inside.

Hosted HomeBox on ElfHosted means nothing to keep running at home: we run it for you, keep it updated, and it's backed up daily, with restores you can do yourself. It has a secure address of its own, so your phone scans labels and snaps photos from the garage or the storage unit across town. And because it lives away from the house, if the worst happens, the photos and receipts are already on file. Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, sends a push alert if HomeBox goes down (once you've said yes to its alerts), tells you why, and restarts it with your OK. Can't find the answer with Sam? The ElfHosted team is on Discord around the clock, in a carefully moderated, family-friendly server. It's one place for support for every app you run with us, handled by professionals, instead of a GitHub issue, docs that may be out of date, or yet another Discord per project. Unlike a generic chatbot, which guesses and overcomplicates, Sam is tuned on these apps and the way we run them: he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it.

HomeBox is part of the ElfHosted Flex collection: a Flex plan runs several apps from the collection at once, and you swap which ones whenever you like. Every Flex plan starts with a 7-day trial. HomeBox is open source, built by the HomeBox project and its community; ElfHosted is not affiliated with the HomeBox project. You can support its developers through Open Collective.

Hosted on ElfHosted, your library is private and reachable anywhere.

Run Readeck with ElfHosted, and your reading list is reachable from anywhere: the browser button saves on your laptop, and the phone app reads it on the bus. Your library sits behind your ElfHosted login, so nobody wanders in; share one article and only that link opens. We run it for you, keep it updated and look after your archive. Readeck itself is the work of the Readeck project.

What is Readeck? An open-source read later app and bookmark archive. It keeps a clean copy of every page you save, words and pictures, so the article is still yours if the site disappears. Highlight the good bits, label and collect, search every word you've ever saved, and send long reads to your ebook reader as EPUB or through its OPDS catalogue. Everyone in the family can have their own collection, with Linkding beside it on your dashboard for the quick links.

Hosted Readeck is new to ElfHosted and in Early Access. It's part of the ElfHosted Flex collection: a Flex plan runs several apps from the collection at once, and you swap which ones whenever you like. Every Flex plan starts with a 7-day trial. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. If something's not right, Sam checks your apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it.

When your Stremio addons proxy the playback, every screen in the house shares one pipe, and two 4K screens at once can fill it. A 4K Booster raises the proxy bandwidth on an app you already run with ElfHosted, such as AIOStreams, StremThru, MediaFlow Proxy, Comet, UsenetStreamer, Usenet Ultimate, StreamNZB, MediaStorm or ChilliBridge. It doesn't add an app and there's nothing to set up: the new ceiling applies within minutes of the booster being provisioned.

Boosters come in tiers: 2x4K adds 256 Mbps (two 4K or four HD screens at once), 4x4K adds 512 Mbps (four 4K or eight HD) and 8x4K adds 1024 Mbps (eight 4K or sixteen HD), where the app offers it. The booster is the maximum bandwidth available to your account, not a reserved or guaranteed rate: bandwidth is shared, so at the busiest times it can dip briefly. Boosters don't stack; to move up or down a tier, open the subscription in My Account, choose Change subscription and pick the booster you want. Boosters raise bandwidth only.

ElfHosted hosts applications; we don't provide content, and you bring your own accounts and settings. New to ElfHosted? Start with a 7-day trial.

Hosted on ElfHosted, it sits beside your Navidrome, Jellyfin or Plex.

Run DroppedNeedle with ElfHosted, and there's no computer under the stairs to keep awake. We keep it running and updated, and your music requests and settings come through every update. It sits right beside your ElfHosted Navidrome, Jellyfin or Plex and finds them by name inside your stack, and it files your music into a folder on your own cloud storage. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to.

What is DroppedNeedle? A music request and discovery app built around MusicBrainz, and the successor to MusicSeerr. Search the MusicBrainz catalogue, request an album or a track, and it tags and files it in your library; then it plays through Navidrome, Jellyfin, Plex or local files, and scrobbles to ListenBrainz and Last.fm at the same time. We host the app, not the music: DroppedNeedle doesn't provide music, and you bring your own collection and your own storage. DroppedNeedle runs its own logins, so claim its admin account as soon as your instance is ready.

The Dungeon Master Bundle puts three tabletop RPG tools on one ElfHosted subscription, for less than buying two of them on their own. Foundry VTT is where you play: a virtual tabletop with scenes, tokens, dynamic lighting, fog of war and character sheets. Grimoire is the library: point it at the rulebook PDFs you already own and every page becomes searchable from your phone, with tagged map and token galleries and a campaign tracker. Dungeon Revealer is the quick battle map with a fog of war you wipe away as the party explores.

How they fit together: Grimoire holds your rulebooks, maps and tokens, and Foundry VTT is where the campaign uses them. A rules question mid-combat is answered from the phone in your hand, not by unlocking the laptop running the game. Dungeon Revealer is for the night the campaign isn't happening: a one-shot, or a new player, with no game system to install. All three are always on at fixed addresses your table bookmarks once, nothing is opened on your home network, and nobody in your group has to be the host.

Foundry VTT is commercial software licensed per person: bring your own licence from foundryvtt.com. Grimoire and Dungeon Revealer are open source. Your players need no ElfHosted account: they join Foundry and Dungeon Revealer in a browser with the passwords you set, so set them before you share the address. We don't supply books or maps. You can add or drop an app later; the bundle is a convenience and a discount, not a lock-in. Start with a 7-day trial. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to.

One book search for your reading apps</video:title><video:description>Shelfmark is one book search across the providers you configure, saving straight into your reading app. Hosted on ElfHosted.

With hosted Shelfmark on ElfHosted, your ElfHosted reading apps' inboxes come already connected: BookOrbit's Book Dock and Calibre-Web's ingest folder. Pick one as the save path, and books arrive where your reading app picks them up, with no paths to match between containers. Keep your books in your own cloud storage? Connect it, and point the save path there instead. Shelfmark runs with us, kept updated, behind your ElfHosted login.

What is Shelfmark? One search interface for an ebook library or audiobook library, across the providers you configure yourself, with covers and details from book metadata services. Pick a result and it hands the file to your reading app (Calibre-Web, BookOrbit or Audiobookshelf) for organising and reading. It's lighter than a full collection manager like Readarr when you only want on-demand search and add.

Start with a 7-day trial. It's backed up daily, and you can restore it yourself whenever you need to. Stuck? Sam, ElfHosted's AI helper, checks your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it. Unlike a generic chatbot, which guesses and overcomplicates, Sam is tuned on these apps and the way we run them: he safely reads your actual logs and proposes a fix, and nothing changes until you approve it. If you'd rather ask a person, the ElfHosted team is on Discord around the clock, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server: one place for support for every app you run with us, instead of a GitHub issue, docs that may be out of date, or yet another Discord per project. ElfHosted hosts applications; we don't provide content. Shelfmark includes no books: you bring and configure your own providers and accounts, and you're responsible for using them lawfully. Shelfmark is open source, the work of its own developers; ElfHosted is not affiliated with the project.
