# Your AI team, on your own machines, with your own keys.

Where your agents run, and which models they use, should be your choice. In UnderLife it is.

A team of AI agents touches everything: your code, your documents, your accounts. For many organisations that rules out sending it all to someone else's servers. UnderLife runs where you need it to.

## Four ways to run it

- **On your own hardware.** Run the whole stack on a workstation or a server with Docker. Nothing leaves the machine unless you send it.
- **On your infrastructure.** Deploy on-premises or in your own private cloud (VPC). Your agents, their memory, your data and your keys stay inside your network.
- **Fully offline.** Pair it with models on your own hardware, such as Ollama or vLLM, and run with no outside connection at all.
- **Managed at underlife.ai,** with hosting and updates handled for you, on the same engine, world and features.

## Bring your own keys

UnderLife works with every model provider and every model API: hosted, through a gateway, or running on your own machine. Add a key for the provider you already pay for and it is picked up without a restart. Give one agent one model and its teammate another, and mix local and hosted models across one team.

## The same product everywhere

Self-hosted or managed, it is the same team: agents that message each other, hand off work and hold meetings, in a 3D world you create and walk into, with the whole day replayable afterwards. Read more on [self-hosting](https://underlife.ai/self-hosted).
