Agent Minutes are only counted when NonBioS is actively building - not when you're thinking, typing, or reviewing code. NonBioS works incredibly fast: a landing page takes ~10 seconds, a simple CRM with MySQL backend takes ~1 minute. Most developers find they use about 1 Agent Minute for every 10 minutes spent in NonBioS, since most time is spent reviewing and testing rather than building.

No. Every paid plan includes a real cloud VM (4GB RAM, 2 vCPU) with a public IP address. Your app is live on the internet the moment the AI builds it. There's no separate hosting bill, no AWS to configure, no Vercel to set up. It's all included in your plan.

The key is understanding NonBioS's speed. While $99/month might seem high, consider that the included minutes are sufficient to build dozens of complete applications.

A typical freelance developer charges $50-150/hour and would take hours to build what NonBioS completes in minutes. Most users find even our free plan sufficient for medium-sized projects once they experience how quickly NonBioS works.

Every user gets a private Ubuntu-based Linux sandbox with root permissions. If you have a paid subscription, the sandbox will be retained till your subscription is active. For users in the Free plan, the sandbox will reset after 1 day of inactivity.

This is full Linux virtual machine that's yours for as long as you're subscribed. It comes with:
1. A public IP address (your app is accessible from anywhere)
2. MySQL pre-installed (no database setup needed)
3. Full root access (Ask NonBioS to install anything you want)
4. Standard Linux tools (no proprietary formats, no lock-in)

This isn't a sandbox or a container. It's a real server - the same kind you'd pay $10-30/month for on DigitalOcean or AWS, included free with your plan.

Yes - and more than you'd expect. Your VM comes with 4GB RAM and 2 vCPUs. For most web apps, SaaS tools, internal dashboards, and side projects, this is enough to serve thousands of users per month without breaking a sweat.

Just point your domain name to your VM's public IP and you're live. That's it. No load balancer to configure, no CDN to set up, no DevOps expertise required.

Build your app, point your domain, serve your customers - all for $9/month. For a simple SaaS tool, a booking system, a client portal, or an e-commerce storefront, your VM can comfortably handle thousands of monthly users.

When you eventually outgrow it, everything is standard Linux with no custom backend -  migrate to any cloud provider with zero lock-in. Many of our users go from idea to live product with paying customers without ever touching a terminal, hiring a developer, or signing up for a separate hosting service.

That's what the Starter plan ($9/month) is for. Your VM stays live, your app keeps running, your database persists. You still get some AI agent time each month for updates and fixes. Think of it as hosting with an AI developer on call.

Just ask NonBioS to optimize it. Seriously - type something like "the dashboard page is loading slowly, can you optimize it?" and the agent will profile the issue, add caching, optimize database queries, compress assets, or restructure code to run faster.

For most apps, the result is a leaner, faster application that serves even more users on the same machine. Other platforms would charge you to scale up to a bigger server. With NonBioS, you ask the AI to make your code smarter instead.

That's exactly who this is built for. There's no terminal to open, no environment to configure, no git commands to learn. You describe what you want in plain English, the AI builds it, and you get a link to your live app. Everything runs in your browser.

And if you get stuck or feeling ambitious - drop into our Discord and we'll help you out. Because NonBioS doesn't use any proprietary frameworks or custom backends, anyone can help you. A friend who codes, a freelancer, a developer you hire later - they'll open your project and see standard, readable code running on standard Linux. You're never locked into needing us to help you. But we're happy to.

Think about what you're probably paying right now across multiple services. Any AI coding tool runs $20-$50/month, A VPS is another $10-$30/month. A managed database adds $15-25/month on top. Then there's the hours you spend configuring CI/CD pipelines, setting up deployment workflows, and keeping it all running. That's easily $45-100/month plus your time - spread across three or four different dashboards and billing cycles.

With NonBioS, all of that is one plan, one dashboard, one bill. The AI builds your code, it runs on your VM, your database is ready, and your app is live. $29/month.

If something needs optimizing, you don't hire someone or dig through server logs - you ask the AI to fix it. There's nothing else to sign up for and nothing else to pay.

Your agent pauses until you add more minutes. You have three options:

1. Rebuy your current plan - Instantly adds the same amount of minutes (e.g. another 180 for Vibecoder)
2. Upgrade to a higher tier - Get more minutes and keep the higher limit permanently
3. Wait for next billing cycle - Your minutes reset automatically

All purchases are prorated based on your billing cycle.

Absolutely! You can rebuy your current subscription at any time to instantly add another batch of minutes to your account. For example, if you're on the Developer plan ($99), rebuying adds another 660 Agent Minutes immediately. This is perfect for occasional heavy usage months without committing to a higher tier permanently.

Absolutely! Each concurrent task consumes Agent Minutes, so running 3 tasks for 1 minute each uses 3 Agent Minutes total. Perfect for managing multiple projects or testing different approaches.

No, minutes reset each billing cycle. This keeps pricing simple and predictable - no complex rollover calculations or expiring credits to track.
