DockPilot puts an AI copilot for your servers in your pocket. Chat with an AI agent that actually does the work — it SSHes into your servers, runs real commands, reads logs, edits files, and fixes issues, always with your approval (or hands-off in Full-Auto mode). Manage your whole fleet from iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Talk to your servers — "why is nginx down?", "deploy the latest build", "free up disk space" — and watch the AI run the commands. • Full SSH terminal with per-command approval, or Full-Auto for trusted tasks. • 24/7 uptime monitoring with live status, latency, and instant push alerts the moment a site goes down. • Deploy from GitHub — read repos, edit, deploy, and merge pull requests straight from chat. • Apple Watch app — server status, latency, and a live feed of what the AI is doing on your wrist, plus watch-face complications. BRING YOUR OWN AI Use Claude, ChatGPT, or Gemini — connect your own account or API key. Switch anytime; your project's memory carries over. PORTABLE AI MEMORY DockPilot remembers your infrastructure so you never re-explain it. Export that memory and drop it into any AI — it's yours to keep. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your SSH keys and API keys are stored in the device Keychain and never leave your device. Projects and chats sync privately through your own iCloud account. DOCKPILOT PRO Full access is available via subscription with a 7‑day free trial — $4.99/month or $39.99/year. Payment is charged to your Apple Account.
