qui Hosting Live In 5 Minutes

qui hosting puts a qBittorrent web interface on your own domain: one fast page for every qBittorrent instance you run. Deploy qui v1.30.0 as one pinned container with its SQLite database on a persistent volume, published over HTTPS in minutes, with nothing to assemble by hand. The first visitor creates the single account, so open the site and set the username and password right away.

  • No lock-in, cancel anytime

What is qui?

qui is a fast, modern web interface for qBittorrent that supports managing multiple qBittorrent instances from a single, lightweight application. Upstream lists cross-seed, rule-based automations, scheduled backups and restore, a transparent qBittorrent proxy for external apps, and a multi-language interface. A self-hosted qui is an alternative to using each client's default web interface one at a time, released under GPL-2.0-or-later, with documentation published upstream.

On xCloud it is qui v1.30.0 pulled from the upstream image and pinned by digest, in a single container with the qui_config volume holding its SQLite database, configuration, logs, caches and backups. xCloud serves it over HTTPS. It generates no credentials, so the first visitor creates the single account, and qBittorrent is not bundled. Cross-seed and orphan scans may need host paths shared with your client.

From Sign-Up to a Live qui In Just 3 Easy Steps

A qui install needs the app, a config volume, a first-run account, a domain and a certificate before it can talk to a client. This is the same result without assembling any of it.

  1. Step 01

    Sign Up

    Create your xCloud account and pick qui from the OneClick catalog. Choose your domain and target server; the install form has no fields and generates no credentials.

  2. Step 02

    We Deploy It For You

    One click. We start ghcr.io/autobrr/qui:v1.30.0, pinned by digest, mount qui_config at /config for the SQLite database, settings, logs and backups, and publish the web interface over HTTPS.

  3. Step 03

    Create The Account And Connect

    Open your HTTPS URL at once and create the username and password on the setup page, because the first visitor can claim the single account. Then add your qBittorrent connections and download settings.

Everything qui Does, On Your Own Server

qui runs here as the web interface only, with its configuration on a server you control and your qBittorrent clients wherever they run.

  • Multi-Instance Support

    Manage all your qBittorrent instances from one place, in a single lightweight application with no dependencies to install.

  • Cross-Seed

    Automatically find and add matching torrents across trackers. It may need host paths shared with your client before you enable it.

  • Rule-Based Automations

    Define rules with conditions and actions to manage torrents without clicking through each one by hand.

  • Scheduled Backups And Restore

    Take scheduled snapshots of qui's own data, with several restore modes, kept under /config on the persistent volume.

  • Transparent qBittorrent Proxy

    A reverse proxy lets external apps talk to your qBittorrent through qui, so the clients keep one connection point.

  • Multi-Language Interface

    The interface is available in English, German, French, Italian, Czech, Ukrainian, Korean, Brazilian Portuguese, Chinese and Catalan.

Everything You Need To Run Your Torrent UI 24/7

Managed hosting for qui, so the parts that keep it online are not your problem.

  • qui v1.30.0 deployed instantly
  • Image pinned by digest
  • Single account you create
  • Session secret kept in /config
  • Free SSL certificate
  • Config and database on a persistent volume
  • Server backups and snapshots
  • 30+ server locations
  • Unused balance refunded

What You Can Do With qui

  • Control several clients from one page

    Add each qBittorrent instance as a connection and manage them together instead of logging in to each.

  • Let other apps share one qBittorrent endpoint

    Point external apps at qui's proxy so they keep a single connection point for the client.

  • Run cross-seed and torrent automations

    Write conditions and actions that tag or manage torrents as they meet your criteria, and let cross-seed add matches.

  • Snapshot qui's own settings regularly

    Use scheduled backups so a bad change to your configuration can be rolled back.

Hear what people are saying about us

See why agencies, developers, startups, and growing businesses choose xCloud to power their projects.

xCloud works really well, I am surprised by its performance being this the release version, I have tried many paid platforms such as runcloud, cloudpages or serveravatar, as well as free platforms such as CyberPanel, CloudPanel or Hestia Control Panel and direct competitors such as SpinupWP and FlyWP. Of all those that I have tried, the platform that works best for WordPress is SpinupWP and I believe that xCloud can reach and surpass that development, its roadmap is promising. Congratulations to the xCloud team, I hope they become the leading platform in the segment, it has all the potential to achieve it!

I've been with runcloud for the last 3 years. However, after trying xcloud for the last month, I'm switching over. They are on a roll with their setup.

I'm moving my servers to xCloud, a cloud control panel by M Asif Rahman and the WPDeveloper team. Their roadmap looks interesting and no, there are no team mates nor API limits with xCloud! #xCloud #wordpress #hosting

xCloud is like having an expert server team on call — without the big agency costs. It's given me back my time and given my clients peace of mind. Highly recommended for freelancers and small teams who want reliable performance and security.

xCloud isn't just a solution. It's like one of that friend who got your back when you screw things up pretty bad.
Waqar Ahmed
Trust me when I say, once people explore the potential of xCloud they gonna switch from other panels, just keep delivering the best tech, lots of love for the team 😍😍
Rahul Singh
So far my experience has been smooth like silk. I didn't imagine that configuring and managing a VPS would be so easy. As of today, I have deployed 8 sites. The support is good, and they treat users with respect, even if they ask stupid questions (myself included). For the future, I hope for greater flexibility in scheduled backups and more comprehensive and consistent documentation. I'm sure that within a few months, xCloud will become the leader in its segment. This community is amazing, and the Staff here is super helpful.

Came from cloudways then to runcloud then to xcloud. Looks like I'm staying here.
Gerson El
I've recently taken all of my Vultr-hosted sites and gotten rid of cPanel for them to substitute it with xCloud. I have to say, I'm really impressed with xCloud so far! The interface is definitely the standout feature for me.
Tony Lewis
I came from Cloudways and won't go back. Highly impressed with xCloud. Glad I gave them a chance.
Jared McDowell
I like xCloud better than RunCloud, but one thing I'll point out is that some years ago RunCloud was hungry for business, the support was outstanding, and the community was active and helped each other. Maybe it was sold, there was a change in management, or they stopped being hungry, but the quality of the RunCloud offering declined and it hasn't been moving forward quickly. My point is that currently the xCloud team has the edge and it is theirs to keep or lose

I had 150 sites on cloudways and am in the process of moving them to xcloud. Much faster and better priced.
Dan Spinoza
Dear xCloud Team, I have been using xCloud for some time now and am genuinely impressed with its capabilities and the flexibility it offers by allowing users to bring their own VPS for management. It's a fantastic service, and my experience so far has been very positive. Successful migrated 5 sites on a single server. Xcloud migration tool worked great. There were few hiccups with security plugin like MalCare but disabling the plugin prior to migration worked just fine.

Frequently Asked Questions

Feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns you may have.

Does qui include qBittorrent?

No. qui is a web interface that connects to qBittorrent instances you already run, and it does not download torrents itself. xCloud provides no qBittorrent instance with this template, so add your own connections after setup.

Who can create the qui account?

The first visitor to the site. The template generates no credentials, and qui has exactly one user, so open the URL straight after install and create the username and password before anyone else finds the domain.

Can you self-host qui with Docker?

Yes. Upstream ships a Docker image, and this template is qui Docker hosting without the setup: the v1.30.0 image pinned by digest, a config volume for the database and settings, and HTTPS on your own domain.

How much RAM does qui need?

The manifest floor is 512 MB of RAM, one core and 2 GB of disk, which is a functional minimum rather than a capacity certification. The 6 GB plan sits far above it and leaves room for other apps.

Can qui manage multiple qBittorrent instances?

Yes. Multi-instance support is a headline feature: manage all your qBittorrent instances from one place. Add each one as a connection with its address and login, and keep those details private, since the template stores them in the config volume.

What does qui do for cross-seeding?

Upstream lists automatic cross-seed that finds and adds matching torrents across trackers. Cross-seed and orphan scans may use paths managed by your client, so add matching host paths to the container before you enable such workflows.

Is qui open source?

Yes. qui is published under GPL-2.0-or-later, so the interface is free to run. What you pay for is the Cloud VPS that serves it, which makes this a qui cloud of your own and not an interface hosted by a third party.

Does qui support several users or SSO?

qui has one user and no multi-user accounts. Upstream documents OpenID Connect sign-in through an external provider, but this template does not configure it; add the QUI__OIDC settings in the Environment editor yourself. Basic Auth at your reverse proxy is another optional layer.

How do I back up qui?

Back up the Docker volume that holds /config, named after your site with qui_config. It contains the SQLite database, configuration, logs, caches and qui's own backups. Restore it together with the qui site so everything stays consistent.

How do I upgrade qui?

The install stays on its pinned v1.30.0 image until you adopt a newer template version. Existing installs keep their image and data until you deliberately update, so back up the config volume first. Never change the session secret afterwards.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. There is no lock-in — cancel any time. Hosting is billed monthly and charged for what you actually use, so when you delete the server the unused balance is refunded to your account, less up to 10% in payment-processing fees.
