Minecraft server hosting for people who run it alone.
Every server comes with Warden, an AI operator that deals with griefers, x-rayers, lag, crashes and support tickets around the clock. You decide how much it handles on its own and what waits for you.

Why this exists
I built the staff team I could never keep.
I ran my Minecraft server by myself for years. As it grew, so did the work: tickets at midnight, a griefed spawn at 3am, lag nobody could explain. I burned out trying to keep up.
Hiring help didn't fix it. Some of the people I trusted burned me. Others were great players and terrible staff. Either way, I was still the one getting the 3am message.
So I built Warden. It watches every block, chat message and tick, fixes what it can, and brings me the calls that need a person. It doesn't get bored, play favourites or abuse its rank. Nightkeeper is that setup, for anyone who's tired of doing it all alone.

What a shift with Warden looks like.
Straight from Warden's incident log. Player names are hidden.
-
Griefing · T•••••••y
Broke into another player's base and took 33 items from their chests within 15 minutes.
Warden: rolled back the damage (12 blocks restored), kicked the player, and told the owner.
-
X-ray · d•••••••••n
Found 4 valuable veins after mining only 128 stone. 75% of those veins were completely hidden. That's 5.6 times above legit odds.
Warden: flagged it to the owner with the evidence, instead of banning on a hunch.
-
Advertising · j•••••••••s
Spammed another server's IP in chat. First offence in 30 days.
Warden: kicked them. A second offence escalates.
-
Crash
The server crashed with exit code 1.
Warden: restarted it. Back online after 7 seconds, owner notified.
You decide how much Warden does on its own.
Some owners want Warden to handle everything. Others want it to watch and ask first. Set it per area, and put a ceiling on the heaviest punishment it can hand out without you.
- Every action is logged with who did it and why.
- Anything Warden does can be undone in one click.
- If it decides it was wrong, it reverses its own action.
- Escalations come to you, or run fully hands-off. Your call.
- Chat moderation

- Griefing and rollbacks

A different kind of host
Other hosts rent you a server. Nightkeeper comes with the staff.
I call it AI-staffed hosting. The hardware is the easy part. What wears owners down is the moderating, the cleanup, the 3am crashes and the tickets, and that's the work Warden does.
Pricing is coming soon.

Questions people actually ask
What is AI-staffed Minecraft hosting?
It's server hosting that comes with an AI staff team. On Nightkeeper, that team is Warden: it moderates chat, rolls back griefing, catches x-ray, fixes lag, restarts crashes and answers player tickets around the clock, and you decide how much it does on its own. More on what it means.
Will Warden ban my friends?
Only if you let it. You set the heaviest action it can take without asking, and anything above that waits for your approval. Every decision comes with its reasoning and evidence.
What happens when the AI gets it wrong?
You undo it in one click. Warden also double-checks its own instant actions and reverses them when it decides it was a false alarm.
How much does it cost?
Pricing is coming soon. Join the waitlist and you'll hear about it first.
Can I run modpacks and plugins?
Yes. Vanilla, Paper, Fabric, Forge, NeoForge, Bedrock and modpacks all run on Nightkeeper.
Where are the servers?
US Central for now, which gives good ping across most of North America. More regions as we grow.
Who do I talk to when something breaks?
A person. Warden handles your players' tickets, but your own questions come to me at [email protected].
