# Compare platforms

> How Orgo compares to Fly.io, DigitalOcean, and Hetzner: a plain-language map so you can pick the right tool and migrate cleanly.

Orgo is a persistent cloud **computer** for AI agents. It runs Linux or Windows, and an agent drives it over the HTTP API, the `orgo` CLI, or MCP, with click, type, and screenshot built in. It also gives CLI agents like Hermes Agent, OpenClaw, or Claude Code a 24/7 home.

Fly.io, DigitalOcean, and Hetzner are general compute platforms. This page maps them side by side so you can choose, then open the guide for your source.

## The map

| | [Fly.io](/guides/migrations/fly-io) | [DigitalOcean](/guides/migrations/digitalocean) | [Hetzner](/guides/migrations/hetzner) | Orgo |
| - | - | - | - | - |
| **What it is** | Apps on microVMs | VPS (Droplets) | VPS (Servers) | Persistent computer for agents |
| **You manage** | App and Machine config | OS, firewall, TLS | OS, firewall, TLS | Nothing |
| **Boot time** | Sub-second | Minutes to a ready server | Minutes to a ready server | Online in seconds |
| **Click / type / screenshot** | Build it yourself | Build it yourself | Build it yourself | Built in |
| **Interface** | CLI, REST, SSH | SSH | SSH | HTTP API, CLI, MCP |
| **Public inbound** | Anycast IPs and proxy | Reserved IPs, DNS, firewalls | Primary and floating IPs | Authenticated proxy |
| **Persistence** | Volumes (opt-in) | Droplet disk | Server disk | Persistent by default |
| **Best for** | General apps and services, multi-region | General self-managed servers | Low-cost general servers | Agents driving a computer or browser, and a 24/7 home for CLI agents (Hermes, OpenClaw, Claude Code) |

## How to choose

* **DigitalOcean or Hetzner** when you want a general Linux server you fully control: arbitrary services, ports, and public networking you manage yourself.
* **Fly.io** when you want a general app platform with fast microVMs, multi-region, and Anycast networking.
* **Orgo** when the job is an **agent driving a computer or browser** (built-in click/type/screenshot), or a **persistent 24/7 home for a CLI agent** like Hermes, OpenClaw, or Claude Code. Computers are persistent by default, with nothing to administer.

These are not mutually exclusive. A common pattern is a VPS or Fly for backend services, and Orgo for the work where an agent drives a computer.

  **Scaling out?** Planning a large or sustained fleet? [Reach out](mailto:spencer@orgo.ai) about an Enterprise plan with custom limits. You can also add computers to your current plan from the Usage page at [orgo.ai/account](https://www.orgo.ai/account?tab=usage).

## Pricing

Pricing models differ enough that one number misleads. The VPS providers bill a flat monthly rate per server, Fly.io bills usage-based per second, and Orgo bills per plan (a bundle of computers, a RAM pool, and support).

Compare on total cost for your workload, not RAM alone. A raw VM leaves you to install and run the desktop environment, browser, and automation yourself, while an Orgo computer ships that built in. See [Orgo pricing](https://www.orgo.ai/#pricing) for current plans.
