Your server. Audited, managed, and deployed with AI.
Do you actually know who has access to your servers right now? CtrlOps gives you a security hardening score across 25 checks, a PDF audit report, and fix commands for every issue found. See who can log into every server, revoke access from your whole fleet in one click, and assign any level of roles/access without touching the terminal. Every log file, found and searchable without SSH. Deploy any app from GitHub in minutes. 100% local. Your credentials never leave your machine.
We know you’re happy with CtrlOps as an SSH client.
But we kept asking ourselves:
What if CtrlOps could do more than just connect to your servers?
So this time, we're going beyond SSH clients.
Your server shouldn’t require you to remember a command for everything.
Need to check security?
→ Run a full security audit.
Need to remove someone's access?
→ Do it across your servers in one action.
Need to find a log?
→ Search and tail it without SSH.
Need to restart a PM2 process?
→ One click.
Need to create a server user?
→ Do it from the UI.
Need to move from Termius?
→ Import your hosts and SSH keys in ~30 seconds.
Need to protect your CtrlOps setup?
→ Lock it with Vault Lock.
Need to move your CtrlOps setup to another machine?
→ Backup and restore everything.
And we’ve added 14+ more improvements across Deployments, File Manager, AI Terminal, and Infra Details.
This is our second Product Hunt launch.
The first launch helped us prove the idea.
The conversations after that launch helped us understand what DevOps teams actually need.
So we went back to work.
More listening.
More shipping.
Less repetitive terminal work.
Our mission hasn't changed: Simplify DevOps.
But CtrlOps has grown far beyond being just an SSH client.
If you manage Linux servers, we'd love to have you try the new CtrlOps.
And tell us:
What should we take beyond SSH next?
