Free forever. Premium if you want to automate everything.
The free app is the real app — your hardware, your network, your server, no account and no CraftPanel cloud required. Premium adds the automation, monitoring, and management tools for people running more than one server, or who'd rather CraftPanel just handle it.
Nothing about hosting your server is behind a paywall
Premium does not unlock the ability to host publicly, or anything else about running the server itself — that's the whole point of CraftPanel, and it stays free. Premium is extra tooling on top, for managing it with less manual work.
Free
The actual hosting app. Not a demo of it.

- Mods and plugins via Modrinth
- Local backups, import and export
- Multiple local servers

Premium
More powerful tools for managing what you already own.
- Full app themes — Dark, Light, Midnight, Sunset, switch anytime, applies instantly
- Performance alerts — get told when TPS drops, RAM runs low, or disk space gets tight, not after the fact
- Verified, tiered backups — integrity-checked after every save, with the same smart retention snapshots already get
- Bulk operations — apply an action across every server at once instead of one at a time
- Time Machine snapshots — cheap, frequent hard-linked rollback points while the server runs
- Automation and CraftPanel IntelligenceRoadmap — most of what we originally planned for automation turned out to already be free (scheduled starts/restarts, timed commands, interval backups) — see Features. Still deciding what's genuinely new to add here.
