Serverless Deployment on Modal
Run Hermes Agent on Modal's serverless infrastructure for elastic scaling, GPU access, and pay-per-use pricing — no servers to manage.
What is Serverless Agent Deployment?
Serverless agent deployment means running AI agents on infrastructure that automatically provisions resources when needed and scales to zero when idle. You pay only for the compute time consumed during task execution, with no ongoing server costs during idle periods.
Advantages
Auto-Scaling
From zero to hundreds of instances based on demand.
GPU Access
Run large models on A100, H100, or A10G GPUs as needed.
Pay Per Use
Billed by the second. No charges when idle.
No Maintenance
No server patching, monitoring, or capacity planning.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Modal?
Modal is a serverless compute platform designed for machine learning and data pipelines. It provisions GPU and CPU resources on demand, scaling from zero to thousands of instances.
Why deploy Hermes on Modal?
Modal provides auto-scaling, GPU access for model inference, and pay-per-use pricing. You only pay when Hermes is actively processing tasks, making it cost-effective for intermittent workloads.
Does Modal support persistent storage?
Yes. Modal provides persistent volumes that survive function invocations. Hermes uses these volumes for SQLite databases, configuration files, and long-term memory storage.
Can Hermes on Modal handle real-time messaging?
Yes. Modal supports webhooks and long-running containers (keep-warm) for real-time integrations like Telegram, Discord, and Slack bots.
