# What is Storiza?

> Cloud servers, game servers, databases and bots — run from one dashboard, one API and one balance.

Storiza is a hosting platform. You rent **virtual private servers (VPS)** with full root or administrator access, or deploy ready-made **apps** — game servers, databases and bots — without managing a machine yourself. Everything is paid from one account and can be controlled three ways:

* **The dashboard** at [dashboard.storiza.store](https://dashboard.storiza.store), for clicking.
* **The REST API** documented here, for scripts, integrations and your own panels.
* **AI agents** such as Claude or ChatGPT, through Storiza's MCP server.

All three act on the same account and see the same resources: a server you create with the API shows up in the dashboard, and the reverse.

## How billing works

Your account has a **balance**. Every server and app is attached to a **subscription** that renews from that balance — weekly, every two weeks, monthly or every three months, whichever you chose. You can top the balance up with any payment method shown in the dashboard, or pay for one order directly at checkout. See [Billing and payments](/concepts/billing-and-payments).
