Run Freqtrade without a VPS — or the security headaches
Self-hosting Freqtrade means renting a server and hardening it — and Freqtrade's own docs warn against exposing its web UI to the internet. We run the engine securely in the cloud so you don't have to.

Run Freqtrade without a VPS — or the security headaches, explained.
You can run Freqtrade without a VPS by letting a managed platform host the engine. VolatiCloud runs Freqtrade on secured cloud infrastructure — no server to rent or patch, no reverse proxy or firewall to configure, and no FreqUI exposed to the public internet.
The hard part of self-hosting was never the install — it's the security work afterwards. You have to keep the server patched, lock down access, and, critically, avoid exposing the web UI: the Freqtrade project itself warns against putting FreqUI on the open internet without proper protection. If you have the sysadmin skills, that's all solvable — it's simply ongoing work that never stops.
VolatiCloud removes that risk surface instead. The engine runs behind proper authentication on managed infrastructure, so you get a web interface to your bots without owning a server's attack surface — and your bots keep running whether or not your own machines are on.

Frequently asked questions.
Why is exposing FreqUI risky?
Freqtrade's own documentation warns against putting its web UI on the public internet without protection, because an exposed control interface for a trading bot is a serious attack surface. Running it yourself means solving that securely.
How does VolatiCloud avoid that?
The engine runs on managed infrastructure behind proper authentication, so there's no self-hosted FreqUI exposed on the open internet. You reach your bots through a secured web dashboard.
Do I need any server skills?
No. There's no VPS, reverse proxy, firewall, or certificate for you to configure. You work entirely through the web dashboard.
Do my bots stay online if my laptop is off?
Yes. Bots run in the cloud around the clock, independent of your own devices.
