PRIVATE HOME SERVERS

Stop renting your digital life.

Choose the subscriptions and cloud services you want to leave. We’ll map them to private alternatives that run on hardware you own.

Build My Private System Show Me What I Can Replace

Some services can be replaced directly. Others can be consolidated, partially replaced, or require compatibility review. See how a Private Home Server works.

We recommend a standardized private alternative for each one.

Your applications and data live on hardware you control.

STEP 1

How much do you want to replace?

Start with a service bundle. You can change it later without losing your selections.

NOT SURE WHERE TO START?

Tell us how you use the cloud. We’ll surface what you can replace.

You do not need to know the names of self-hosted apps. Pick the parts of your digital life you use today, then we’ll show the subscriptions and cloud services worth checking.

STEP 2

Throw your subscriptions in the bin.

Pick what you want to replace. Your private stack builds itself on the right. Use the info button on any service to see exactly what is — and is not — being replaced.

SUBSCRIPTION IMPACT

See what recurring spend this system could replace.

Enter what you actually pay today. We keep confirmed cancellation plans separate from services that may only be partially replaceable or still need compatibility review.

LIKELY SUBSCRIPTION REDUCTION $0/yr

Current selected spend$0/mo

Likely monthly savings$0/mo

Potential additional$0/mo

Potential annual reduction$0/yr

Add a service above, then enter what you currently pay for it.

How to read this: savings use the prices you enter and your stated intent to cancel. Partial replacements and compatibility-gated services are not counted as likely savings by default. These figures show recurring subscription reduction only; they do not subtract the one-time server, installation, migration, electricity, or optional support cost.

STEP 3

Size the private system around how you’ll actually use it.

Only the questions that affect your build appear. Your recommended server class, storage, protection, and review needs update as you answer.

SYSTEM OPTIONS

Choose how much protection and growth room you want.

The server class remains workload-driven. You can add storage headroom, stronger backup protection, remote access, and battery-backup planning without changing which subscriptions count toward your package.

Recommended capacity

Choose the recommended capacity or deliberately step up for faster future growth.

We never let an override drop below the calculated requirement.

BACKUP PROTECTION

How much recovery protection do you want?

Your primary server is not the backup. Choose whether you only want system recovery, a separate copy of your data, or an additional failure domain.

REMOTE ACCESS

Where should your private apps work?

Secure remote access adds encrypted connectivity and additional hardening without consuming a service slot.

Add battery-backup planningRecommended for servers storing important data or running automation/security workloads.

STEP 4

Review the system you’ve built.

This is the customer-facing build plan Circuit Craftworks will use to confirm hardware, compatibility, migration scope, and final pricing before any work begins.
