Kitewell Cloud

Kitewell Cloud is Kitewell in your browser, with nothing to install. Each project you make there gets its own machine in the cloud, so its schedules run with your computer closed. Build and fix workflows from a browser or your phone.

Start

1. Open app.kitewell.com and sign in to Dagu Cloud, or create an account.
2. Choose Create project and give it a name. Kitewell sets up the project’s machine, which takes about 20 seconds.
3. Tell the assistant what the job is, as in your first workflow.

Your first project starts the 14-day trial, with no card. The trial holds one project. Subscribe to Kitewell Personal or Team for more.

Cloud hours

A project’s machine counts cloud hours while it is awake: running, building with the assistant, or showing its browser. Asleep, it counts nothing.

• The trial includes 30 hours.
• Personal includes 100 hours a month, and Team 300 a month for each computer, shared by the workspace.
• Past them, credits you bought pay for more, at 10 credits an hour. Without them, Kitewell Cloud starts no new runs until you subscribe or the month resets, and the app says so.
• Meanwhile you can still open projects, read past runs, and export.
• Runs on your own computer are never metered.

Work as a team

On Kitewell Team, the trial included, the workspace owner invites people from the browser:

1. Choose the gear beside your name to open Account. Under Team, enter the person’s email address and choose Invite. Kitewell emails them a link, and shows it to you once so you can send it too.
2. They open the link, sign in or sign up with that address, and choose to join. Kitewell opens your workspace for them.
3. Under Synced projects, give them Editor or Admin on each project they work on, and choose Save access. Opening a cloud project takes one of the two.

Everyone keeps their own workspace as well. Once someone belongs to more than one, the open workspace’s name shows under their name, and choosing it switches to another.

How it runs

• Each project runs on its own machine in Google Cloud, with the same Kitewell engine as the desktop app.
• Website steps run in a real Chrome on that machine. Watch it in the page, and choose Take over to sign in to a site yourself.
• The machine sleeps when nothing is due, and wakes in time for the next scheduled run, with no page open.
• The project’s files and sign-ins are kept encrypted in its own storage, in Google Cloud’s Iowa region (us-central1) in the United States. The privacy policy says what is kept and where.

What runs in the cloud, and what needs your computer

These run in Kitewell Cloud:

• websites, including sign-ins;
• email;
• Excel files without macros;
• APIs and web requests;
• AI model steps, and the assistant;
• approvals, and schedules with your computer closed.

These need Kitewell on your computer:

• desktop apps;
• Excel macros and query refresh;
• printing;
• files on your own disk;
• sites you can reach only from your office network;
• client certificates kept on your computer;
• coding agents such as Claude Code and Codex, signed in with your own subscription.

Cloud projects and desktop projects

A project made in the browser opens only in the browser, and a project on your computer opens only in the desktop app. Each one runs where it was made.
