Common questions

Not at all. TashiOS is built for non-technical users. You describe what you want in plain English and the AI builds it for you. No coding, no terminal commands, no technical knowledge required. If you can write an email, you can build an app.

Your own private cloud server with TashiOS pre-installed — a full desktop environment you access from any browser. It comes with an AI assistant, app builder, website builder, file manager, terminal, and more. Everything runs 24/7 on your dedicated server, accessible from any device.

About 5 minutes. Pick a plan, enter your email and card, and you're in. We automatically deploy your server, install TashiOS, and email you your login credentials. Open the link in any browser and you're on your desktop — no downloads, no installs, nothing to configure.

Pay nothing today. You enter your card on file, but $0 is charged when you sign up. For 7 days you get the full Starter experience — the same 4 GB / 2 vCPU server, all apps, all features, plus a generous $150 AI budget to build whatever you want. On day 8, your card is automatically charged $49 and you continue as a Starter customer with no migration or downtime. Cancel anytime before day 8 from inside TashiOS and you pay nothing.

Two reasons. First, every TashiOS account runs on a dedicated private server that costs us real money to run — the card protects us from abuse and lets us give you the full Starter experience instead of a stripped-down trial. Second, if you decide to continue after day 7, your server keeps running seamlessly with zero interruption. Your card is validated at signup but not charged. If you cancel before day 8, you pay $0.

If you cancel before day 8, your card is not charged. Your server is paused immediately and kept for 14 days so you can change your mind — reactivate any time in that window and pick up exactly where you left off. After 14 days, the server is decommissioned and the data is deleted. We always recommend downloading anything you want to keep before cancelling.

Almost anything. Websites, web apps, landing pages, dashboards, internal tools, WordPress sites, APIs, automation scripts, chatbots — you name it. Just describe what you need to the AI and it builds, deploys, and puts it live. People have built everything from restaurant booking systems to e-commerce stores.

AI features pause until your budget resets on the 1st of the next month. You can also buy extra credits instantly from your dashboard — they never expire and carry over forever. Your server and all non-AI apps continue working normally.

Yes. TashiOS runs in any modern browser — Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge. Access your full desktop from your laptop, tablet, or phone. Your server is always on, so you can pick up right where you left off from any device, anywhere in the world.

Absolutely. You get your own dedicated server — not shared with anyone. Your code, files, and data stay on your server, not ours. We don't access or store your content. Everything is encrypted with SSL, and you have full root access to your machine.

All plans include the full TashiOS desktop, every app, and the same 4 GB / 2 vCPU base server. The main difference is your monthly AI budget. Starter ($49/mo) gives you $100/mo AI budget — perfect to start. Pro ($99/mo) gives you $200/mo AI budget — great for daily use. Ultra ($179/mo) gives you $500/mo AI budget plus priority support — for heavy workloads and agency clients. You can upgrade your server to 8 GB or 16 GB anytime from the customer portal.

Yes, anytime. Upgrade from your dashboard and the new limits take effect immediately. You only pay the prorated difference. Downgrading takes effect at your next billing cycle. No penalties either way.

Yes. Cancel from your dashboard with one click. You keep access until the end of your billing period. No contracts, no cancellation fees, no questions asked. You can also download all your files and data before cancelling.

100%. Everything you create — apps, websites, code, files, data — belongs to you. It lives on your server. You have full root access. If you ever leave, you can take everything with you. We never claim ownership of anything you build.

Massively. A freelance developer costs $3,000–$10,000+ per project. A full-time hire costs $5,000–$15,000/month. TashiOS gives you an AI that builds, deploys, and maintains your projects for $49–$179/month — and it works 24/7 without breaks, sick days, or miscommunication.

Your AI assistant is always available right on your desktop — ask it anything. For account or billing issues, Pro and Ultra plans include priority support. We also have documentation and guides to help you get the most out of TashiOS.

Yes. New features, improvements, and security patches are delivered automatically. You get a notification when an update is available and can apply it with one click. Every update includes a rollback option — if anything goes wrong, you can instantly go back to the previous version.

Yes. You can build and host as many websites, apps, and projects as your server can handle. You can also point custom domains to any specific app or website you build — perfect for client work. Many users use TashiOS to build sites for their clients and deploy them directly from their desktop.

Yes — 7 days free. You get the full Starter experience: same 4 GB / 2 vCPU server, all apps, all features, plus a generous $150 AI budget to build with. Card required at signup but $0 is charged. Cancel anytime before day 8 from inside TashiOS and you pay nothing. On day 8 you're auto-charged $49 for Starter and your server keeps running with no interruption.

TashiOS is designed as a single-user workspace — one account, one desktop, one server. If you need multiple people working together, each person would need their own plan. This keeps your server fast and your data private.

After cancellation, you keep access until the end of your billing period. During that time, you can download all your files, code, and data. After the billing period ends, your server is decommissioned. We recommend exporting anything important before your access expires.
