## Why Hosted

### Go Live in Days, Not Months

The fastest path to deploying AI agents across your organization

**Production-ready from day one**

ibl.ai's managed cloud handles infrastructure, scaling, monitoring, and updates so your team can focus on configuring agents and delivering value. When you're ready for full control, migrate to [on-premise deployment](/on-premise-deployment) with zero friction — same platform, same code.

- **No infrastructure overhead** — No servers to provision, no Kubernetes to manage, no security patches to apply. We handle the ops so you can focus on outcomes.
- **Same platform, same code** — The hosted version runs the same codebase as on-premise. You can inspect the code, request customizations, and migrate anytime with a full code license.
- **85% lower cost at scale** — Flat-rate pricing for unlimited users. No per-seat fees that punish adoption. Your 10,000th user costs the same as your first.
