What is HQ hosted?
HQ hosted is the managed version of HQ at app.yourhq.ai. You get the same platform as the open-source self-hosted version — agents, CRM, tasks, knowledge, routines — without managing Docker, Supabase, or any infrastructure.You sign up, we provision a dedicated workspace (database + agent runtime), and you’re ready to create agents in under two minutes.
How much does it cost?
$30/month per workspace. This includes:
Dedicated database (your own Supabase project)
Dedicated agent runtime (sandbox)
Unlimited agents, contacts, tasks, and knowledge items
All features — no tier restrictions
Model API costs are separate. You bring your own API key (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.) and pay your provider directly. HQ never charges for model usage.
What's included vs. the self-hosted version?
Everything. The hosted version runs the same codebase as the open-source version. The only difference is who manages the infrastructure:

Self-hosted is free (you pay for your own infrastructure). Hosted is $30/mo and we handle infrastructure.
Can I try it before paying?
There’s no free trial at the moment. Two options to evaluate:
Self-hosted version — free, identical features, runs on any machine with Docker. Get started →
Hosted sign-up — $30/month, cancel anytime. You’ll have agents running in under 2 minutes.
Each workspace gets a dedicated Supabase project — your database is not shared with other customers. By default, Supabase projects are provisioned in US East (us-east-1).Your agent runtime runs in a dedicated sandbox. Agent memory, files, Chrome profiles, and conversation history live in that sandbox.
Can you see my data?
We have administrative access to the Supabase Management API (needed to provision and manage your project), but we do not access your workspace data in normal operations. Your agent conversations, CRM contacts, knowledge items, and API keys live in your dedicated project.HQ is open source — you can audit exactly what the hosted version runs.
Are my API keys safe?
Your model provider API keys (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.) are stored in your workspace’s dedicated Supabase project. They’re used only to route model calls on your behalf. They’re never stored in or accessible from a shared system.
Can I export my data?
Data portability is on the roadmap. The goal is to let you export your full workspace and import it into a self-hosted HQ instance (or vice versa) with a single command. The database schema is identical between hosted and self-hosted.In the meantime, your Supabase project uses standard Postgres — all your data is in standard tables with documented schemas.
Yes. Each workspace is independent — separate database, agents, CRM, and billing. Add a workspace from the Account page. Each is billed at $30/month.
How do I cancel?
Go to Account → click Cancel next to the workspace. Your workspace stays active for 30 days (grace period), then it’s permanently deleted. Canceling one workspace doesn’t affect others.See Account & billing for details.
What happens to my data when I cancel?
During the 30-day grace period: everything stays active. After 30 days: the agent runtime is destroyed, the Supabase project is deleted, and all data is permanently removed. This cannot be undone.
Can I switch from hosted to self-hosted (or vice versa)?
Data migration between hosted and self-hosted is on the roadmap. The schema is identical, so the migration is technically straightforward — we’re building a one-click tool for it.Until then, you’d need to manually export/import your Postgres data.
How do I update my payment method?
Go to Account → Open Stripe. The Stripe Customer Portal lets you update your card, view invoices, and see your next billing date.
All of them — the same as self-hosted. HQ is model-agnostic:
API key providers: OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, DeepSeek, Mistral, Groq, OpenRouter, and 15+ more
OAuth providers: OpenAI Codex, GitHub Copilot
Each agent can use a different model. You pay the provider directly through your own API key.
Local models (Ollama, LM Studio) require a publicly reachable URL since the agent runtime runs in a cloud sandbox, not on your machine.
Can I use Telegram, Discord, or Slack with hosted HQ?
Yes. Channel setup works exactly the same as self-hosted:
Telegram: create a bot at @BotFather, paste the token
Discord: create a bot in the Developer Portal, paste the token
Slack: OAuth flow through HQ’s settings
Webhooks from messaging platforms route directly to your agent runtime.
How many agents can I run?
There’s no hard limit on the number of agents. In practice, the runtime handles 5–10 active agents comfortably. If you need more, contact us.
Do I need to manage updates?
No. We handle all infrastructure updates — database migrations, runtime updates, and security patches. Your workspace is always on the latest version.
Can I customize agent templates?
Yes — from the UI. After creating an agent, you can edit its identity, personality, memory, and skills directly from the agent detail page. The Personality tab lets you edit IDENTITY.md and SOUL.md with a rich-text editor, and changes apply immediately.For deeper customization (creating entirely new templates from scratch), the self-hosted version gives you full filesystem access to the template library.
