One control plane for Vultr and everything else you run
Vultr puts inexpensive compute in more regions than almost any other provider — which is exactly why it rarely runs alone. Teams pick it up for one edge location, then another, and end up with a footprint that's easy to spread out and hard to see all at once. Sencai connects to your Vultr account without moving anything, and puts every instance in it next to your other clouds and servers, in one inventory, one provisioning workflow, and one audit log.
Provisioning and inventory are live for this provider today. Live network, firewall and DNS management have not yet been independently verified against a production account for this provider - ask us for the current status before relying on it.
Connect Vultr the way that fits you
Connect an existing Vultr account and nothing about it changes: the account, the contract, and the invoice stay with you. Sencai stores the API credentials encrypted at rest and only uses them for actions you authorize — you can revoke access from your Vultr account at any time, with immediate effect. This is bring-your-own-cloud (BYOC), and it's usually where teams start, because there's no new contract to sign and no billing relationship to move. If you'd rather not hold a separate Vultr account at all, Sencai can provision and bill Vultr capacity under its own account instead — one contract, one invoice, at Vultr's cost plus a 2% margin shown as its own line. The two models aren't exclusive: a BYOC organisation can add managed Vultr capacity later, or the other way around, without moving anything that's already running.
See what's already spread across every region you're in
The moment your account connects, Sencai inventories what's already there — instances, networks, storage, and DNS zones — across every Vultr region you use, no migration required. Vultr's map is wider than most alternatives, and that's usually the whole point of using it: an edge node here for latency, a compute instance there because that's where the customer is. It also means resources accumulate in places that are easy to lose track of. Sencai pulls all of it into one view next to your other providers, so a Vultr edge node in one region sits beside a Hetzner box or an AWS instance without switching consoles to see any of it. Nothing is touched by discovery — each resource is opt-in, and you decide, one at a time, which ones Sencai actively manages.
Spin regions up and down without a separate console for each one
Provision, stop, resize, or destroy a Vultr instance from the same screen and the same workflow you'd use for any other provider — no separate console, no provider-specific quirks to remember. That consistency pays off most where Vultr is chosen for: standing up capacity close to users in a region you don't normally run in, keeping it for exactly as long as the workload needs it, and tearing it down cleanly instead of leaving a forgotten instance billing quietly in a region nobody checks. Install the Sencai fleet agent on any Linux instance — Vultr or otherwise — and it starts reporting monitoring data, patch status, and installed software immediately. Approval-gated runbooks let you write an incident response once and run it identically on a Vultr node in one region and a bare-metal server in your own data center.
Every action logged, every dollar visible
Every action taken through Sencai against your Vultr account — a resize, a stop, an agent-run command — lands in an append-only, hash-chained audit log. Entries can't be edited or deleted after the fact, so "who changed this, and when" is a query you run, not an investigation you launch. That record covers Vultr and every other connected provider the same way, which is what turns it into evidence you can actually hand a security review or an incident postmortem. Cost visibility works the same way: spend across Vultr sits next to spend across every other provider you've connected, in one place, with anomaly detection watching for the spike that shouldn't be there — the kind that's easy to miss when instances are scattered across a dozen regions and just as many invoices.
Frequently asked
Do I need to migrate anything off Vultr to use Sencai?
No. Connecting a Vultr account through BYOC doesn't move any resource, account, or contract — Sencai reads and manages through Vultr's API using credentials you control and can revoke at any time. Instances, networks, storage, and DNS zones stay exactly where they are; you opt individual resources into active management whenever you're ready, not all at once.
Can Sencai bill Vultr capacity for me instead of me holding a Vultr contract?
Yes. Instead of BYOC, Sencai can provision Vultr capacity under its own account and bill you directly — one contract, one invoice, at Vultr's cost plus a 2% margin shown as a separate line. You can run BYOC and managed capacity side by side in the same organisation, and move a given workload between the two later.
Can I manage Vultr alongside Hetzner, AWS, or other clouds in one place?
Yes — that's the core idea. Sencai connects to 11 cloud providers plus on-premise and bare-metal servers, and every connected account shows up in the same organisation, the same inventory, and the same audit log. A team running Vultr for edge locations next to Hetzner or AWS for core capacity sees all of it as one fleet, not three separate consoles.
How mature is the Vultr integration?
Provisioning and inventory for Vultr are live today — connecting an account, discovering existing resources, and starting, stopping, resizing, or destroying instances all work now. Live network, firewall, and DNS management for Vultr specifically hasn't yet been independently verified against a production account, so we're not claiming it here; we'll update this page the day it is.
What does the fleet agent do on a Vultr instance?
Install it on any Linux instance and it reports monitoring data, patch status, and installed software back to Sencai, alongside every other server in your fleet regardless of provider or region. Approval-gated runbooks let you codify an incident response once — a restart sequence, a rollback, a config fix — and run it identically on a Vultr instance, a Hetzner box, or a bare-metal server, with every run recorded in the audit log.
