---
agentOS supports multiple deployment models depending on your needs.

| Option | Description | Best for |
|--------|-------------|----------|
| **Local Dev** | Run locally with `npx rivetkit dev`. No infrastructure needed. | Development and testing |
| **[Rivet Cloud](/cloud)** | Fully managed hosting on Rivet Compute or bring your own cloud (BYOC). | Teams that want zero-ops deployment |
| **[Rivet Self-Hosted](/docs/self-hosting)** | Run the full Rivet platform on your own infrastructure. | Organizations that need full control |
| **[Rivet Enterprise](/sales)** | Self-hosted with dedicated support, custom SLAs, and compliance reviews. | Regulated industries and large-scale deployments |
| **agentOS Core** | Use `@rivet-dev/agent-os-core` directly without the Rivet platform. Embed the runtime in any Node.js backend. | Custom integrations and existing infrastructure |
