Free bot hosting
VexaNode offers free bot hosting so you can ship a small bot without paying.
What you get
- An always-on container for one small bot
- Node.js / Python / Bun runtime
- Console, file manager and SFTP
- Auto-restart on crash
Fair-use limits
The free tier is real, but it is shared and modest:
- Limited RAM and CPU — fine for a single small bot, not for music/large sharding
- Disk is limited; store state in a database, not on disk
- Heavy or abusive usage can be throttled
TIP
For a music bot or a bot in many servers, move to a paid plan or a managed Lavalink node — free tier will not keep up.
Reasons the free bot gets suspended
- Idle for a long time with no activity (we may reclaim the slot).
- Crypto mining / proxies / abuse — instant termination.
- Mass DM / spam behaviour.
- Too many servers for the allocated memory.
Moving up
When you outgrow free, paid plans scale RAM and CPU without changing your code. See Upgrades.
