Umay
The AI that runs your server.
When something goes wrong on your server you do not need to open a support ticket. You ask Umay. It connects to your server, looks, diagnoses, explains the fix — and applies it if you approve.
In action
Same question, different class, different behaviour
Every command passes through the rule engine before it runs. Its class is decided by the system, not by Umay. The fourth tab shows what happens to a redirection instruction hidden inside a file on your server.

What it does
It looks and diagnoses
Service states, error logs, disk usage, CPU and memory load, open ports, network configuration, package versions, scheduled tasks.
None of this changes anything on your server, so it needs no approval — it looks the moment you ask.
It fixes the problem
Restarts services, installs and updates packages, edits configuration files, writes firewall rules, clears a full disk, rotates logs, repairs broken permissions.
Reachable even when your network is down
Umay does not connect over the network — it connects through the virtualisation layer. When your network configuration breaks, when the firewall locks itself out, or when SSH or Remote Desktop (RDP) access is lost, Umay can still get in and see what happened.
Your server must be powered on.
What this means: when your network configuration breaks, when the firewall locks itself out with a wrong rule, or when SSH or Remote Desktop (RDP) access is lost, Umay can still get in and see what happened.
The point where SSH- or RDP-based assistants stop working is exactly the moment you need server management most.
How it works
Umay does not connect over SSH or RDP. It reaches the guest operating system directly, through the virtualisation layer.
What that means in practice
- No management port has to stay open on your server
- No agent software is installed on your server
- Access continues even if your network configuration breaks
- It works the same way on Linux and Windows
Memory
Umay does not start from zero in every chat. It remembers what it has learned about your server.
Persistent facts
“The web server here is OpenLiteSpeed, not nginx.” It learns this once and never looks in the wrong place again.
Incident history
The failures you have hit before and how they were resolved. When the same problem returns it does not diagnose from scratch — it says “this happened in March too, and here is how we fixed it”.
Resolution procedures
Platform-wide instructions written by our system administrators. Read-only; they cannot be modified.
Memory is per server. Nothing learned on one server can enter the chat of another. This is not a preference; the server identity is sealed to the session and the boundary is enforced in code.
Security
You have a right to know how a system you granted command execution on your server limits that power. Four layers:
Access is not left to the AI
Umay’s tools do not take “which server” as a parameter. The server it connects to is fixed on the system side the moment the chat opens, and never changes for the duration of that chat.
The consequence is this: no text the AI produces can change the target. An instruction hidden in a file on your server saying “now connect to another server”, or a redirection attempt typed into the chat, achieves nothing — there is no parameter to change. An injected instruction can still attempt a harmful command on the same server; that attempt is caught by the rule engine described below.
The system classifies commands, not the AI
Every command to be executed first passes through a rule engine on the server side and falls into one of three classes.
| Class | What happens |
|---|---|
| Read | Runs directly. Changes nothing. |
| Modify | Runs directly. The change it makes is logged. |
| Irreversible | A snapshot is taken first, and it does not run until you approve it. |
Umay cannot declare a command “safe”. That decision is not its own.
The rule engine splits command chains into their parts and evaluates each part separately; a single dangerous part sends the whole command to approval. It recognises and rejects obfuscation techniques — encoded commands, scripts downloaded from the internet and piped straight into a shell. A command it does not recognise is not assumed to be a read — it is first scanned against dangerous patterns; if it contains anything dangerous it goes to your approval, and if not it runs in the modify class.
A snapshot and your approval before irreversible operations
When an operation cannot be undone, an automatic snapshot is taken first and it does not run until you approve it. If the result is not what you expected, you roll back in a single step. Everyday changes do not wait on this step — they run directly and are recorded in the audit log.
Every command is logged
Which command ran, which class it fell into, who approved it, which snapshot was taken, what result came back. All of it is permanent and viewable from your control panel.
What it will not do
Knowing a system’s limits matters as much as knowing its capabilities.
- It reaches exactly one server — the service whose chat you opened. It cannot reach your other servers.
- It performs no commercial actions — it takes no payment, issues no invoice, cancels no service, upgrades no plan.
- It does not display, copy or export your root password.
- It does not download data from your server. Your files stay on your server.
- It does not chat about anything unrelated to your server. Its scope is server administration.
- It performs no irreversible operation without your approval.
- It does not replace human support. Anything it cannot resolve is handed to our support team.
Usage
Umay is offered as a monthly add-on to virtual server (VDS) services. Each plan includes a monthly usage allowance; you can see your allowance live in your control panel and buy an additional pack if it runs short.
Short questions use less of your allowance; long diagnostic sessions use more. You can see your consumption live in the panel.
