# CtrlOps

Canonical: https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/555594/CtrlOps

> CtrlOps is a local-first desktop application for managing Linux servers without DevOps expertise. It brings every server, deployment, and diagnostic tool into one screen running entirely on the user's machine.

The core feature is an AI Terminal that accepts natural language input. Users describe a server problem or task in plain English and the terminal generates the exact Linux command needed. Before anything executes, CtrlOps displays the command, explains what it will do, and requires explicit approval. The AI also queries live web sources to retrieve current documentation and security advisories, ensuring recommendations reflect up-to-date information rather than static training data.

Additional features include a multi-server dashboard for managing all connected servers from one screen, one-click deployments from GitHub repositories, a visual file manager for browsing and transferring files on remote servers, real-time monitoring of CPU usage, memory, and disk space, SSH key management with all credentials stored locally, backup status visibility, a scripts library for saving and reusing common commands, and user access control for managing team permissions.

Everything runs 100% locally. No credentials, SSH keys, or infrastructure details are ever transmitted to external servers. There are no agents to install on remote machines. CtrlOps communicates directly with servers over standard SSH protocol.

Available on Mac (Apple Silicon and Intel), Windows, and Linux. Compatible with any Linux server on AWS, Google Cloud, Azure, DigitalOcean, or any VPS provider.

30-day free trial. No credit card required. Monthly plan at $7/month. Yearly plan at $70/year.
