About SillyHost
SillyHost provides managed cloud hosting for SillyTavern, a free open-source frontend for chatting with AI language models and building characters and worlds. You pick a subdomain, click deploy and get your own instance with auto-generated credentials and SSL in under a minute, with no Docker, command line or server maintenance, accessible from any browser including Safari on iPhone and iPad.
Config, characters, world info, plugins and extensions persist on dedicated storage, updates to the latest SillyTavern version are one click while preserving data, and snapshots can be created on demand with archives checked daily. Each instance runs in an isolated container with TLS, API keys such as OpenRouter, Claude or OpenAI are not exposed, and the site says conversations are not logged. A status page is provided and users can try it for free.
