Raptor turns a Linux box you own or rent into a game server host, with a console, files, backups, and schedules in your browser. No panel to install, no per-server bills: run as many as your machine can handle.
Free for 30 days, then $12 a month. Cancel anytime from the app.
A game host bills each server by its memory. Running Pterodactyl yourself means keeping a panel alive. Raptor is one flat price for the machine, with the panel taken care of.
| What | A game host | Pterodactyl on your machine | Raptor |
|---|---|---|---|
| What you pay for | Each server, by its memory | Your machine | Your machine, and $12 a month for it |
| How many servers | As many as you pay for | As many as it runs | As many as it runs |
| A panel to install and update | No | Yes: web server, database, certificates | No |
| Backups | Often extra | Set them up yourself | On by default, encrypted |
| If the panel goes down | Depends on the host | You can't manage servers | Servers, schedules, and backups carry on |
| Your data | On their machines | On yours | On yours |
Real screens from the app, running real servers.
Each server opens on its live console and what it's using: CPU, memory, disk, network, and players. Type commands, restart it, or pop the console out into its own window.
Browse, edit configs with syntax highlighting, and upload worlds and modpacks up to 1 GB each. Paste a link and the machine downloads it itself; bring a whole server over from another host.
New servers back up every day without you setting anything up. Backups are incremental and encrypted on your machine, and you can open one and restore a single file or the whole server.
Invite friends or staff as owners, admins, or members, and give each one exactly the permissions they need on each server. Everything anyone does is recorded and searchable.
Sign up, choose Connect node, and copy one command, with a token that works once.
It installs Docker and Raptor, sets up disk limits, and links the machine. Debian 12 or 13, or Ubuntu 24.04, on x86 or ARM.
Raptor installs it and starts it. Players connect straight to your machine, at an address it comes with.
Raptor reads Pterodactyl and Pelican eggs, so anything with one can run, and 64are ready to pick. Already on Pterodactyl? raptor import pterodactyl moves your servers over on the same machine.
Unlimited servers, people, schedules, and backups on every machine, and no limits on RAM, CPU, or players: it's your hardware. Ten servers on one machine is still $12.
$0 for your first month
then $12 a month for each machine you link
A card is needed to start. Nothing is charged for 30 days.
Yes. Link your first machine and Raptor costs nothing for a month. A card is needed to start; you're charged $12 when the month is up, unless you cancel first, in the app's billing settings.
A Linux machine you can run commands on as root: a dedicated server, a VPS, or a box at home, with Debian 12 or 13 or Ubuntu 24.04, on x86 or ARM. Raptor installs Docker and everything else.
Not for Raptor: your machine connects out to it. Players need the game's own port open, and the connection test tells you if they can't reach it, with steps for your provider's firewall.
Nothing your players notice. Servers keep running, schedules keep firing, and backups keep happening on the machine, and the raptor command there still starts, stops, and shows logs.
Raptor reads Pterodactyl and Pelican eggs, and raptor import pterodactyl moves your servers over on the same machine, files and all.
The panel goes read-only for that machine. Raptor never stops your servers over billing, and the raptor command on the machine keeps working.
