The problem it solves

Every time a customer orders NextCloud file storage, someone has to manually provision a server, install and configure it, then hand over access. That manual setup slows down delivery and ties up your technical staff.

Who it fits

Web hosting companies or IT service providers selling NextCloud file storage through their billing system.

How it works

  1. A customer order triggers a command from your billing system
  2. The system connects to your Docker server over SSH
  3. It automatically deploys and configures a new NextCloud instance for that customer
  4. It confirms the setup back to the billing system

What you get

A fully configured, ready-to-use NextCloud storage account for the customer, with no manual setup.

What you need

A billing system (WHMCS or WISECP), a Docker-enabled server accessible by SSH, and an automation server.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.
