CashPilot is a self-hosted platform that lets you deploy, manage, and monitor passive income services from a single web interface. Instead of manually setting up dozens of Docker containers, configuring credentials, and checking multiple dashboards, CashPilot handles everything from one place.
The key differentiator: a browser-based setup wizard guides you through account creation and service deployment, orchestrates all containers through Docker, and aggregates your earnings into a unified dashboard with historical tracking.
- Web-based setup wizard with guided account creation for each service
- One-click container deployment for 25+ passive income services
- Real-time earnings dashboard with historical charts and trend analysis
- Container health monitoring -- CPU, memory, network, and uptime at a glance
- Multi-category support -- bandwidth sharing, DePIN, storage sharing, GPU compute
- Automatic earnings collection from service APIs and dashboards
- Mobile-responsive dark UI -- manage your fleet from any device
- Single Docker container -- no complex setup, no dependencies to install
- Service catalog with earning estimates, requirements, and platform details
With Docker Compose (recommended):
docker compose up -d
# Open http://localhost:8080Or with docker run:
docker run -d \
--name cashpilot \
-p 8080:8080 \
-v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock \
-v cashpilot_data:/data \
drumsergio/cashpilot:latestThen open http://localhost:8080 and follow the setup wizard.
If you prefer to manage containers yourself (via Portainer, manual compose, etc.), CashPilot works without Docker socket access:
docker compose -f docker-compose.standalone.yml up -dIn this mode CashPilot provides the service catalog, compose file export, earnings dashboard, and credential storage -- but cannot deploy or monitor containers directly. Use the Export Compose button in the UI to get ready-to-use docker-compose.yml files for any service.
Services CashPilot can deploy and manage automatically via Docker.

Note: The
generate_docs.pyscript auto-generates this table from service YAML definitions. Earnings vary widely by location, hardware, and demand -- see individual guide pages indocs/guides/for details.
- Deploy CashPilot -- a single
docker compose up -dgets you running - Open the web UI -- browse the full service catalog at
http://localhost:8080 - Browse services -- filter by category, see earning estimates and requirements
- Sign up -- each service card has a signup link; create accounts as needed
- Enter your credentials -- the setup wizard collects only what each service needs
- CashPilot deploys and monitors -- containers are launched, health-checked, and earnings are tracked automatically
CashPilot is built as a single container that orchestrates everything:
- Backend: FastAPI (Python) with async task scheduling
- Database: SQLite -- zero configuration, backed up via the mounted volume
- Container management: Docker SDK for Python -- deploys and monitors service containers
- Service definitions: YAML files in
services/are the single source of truth for all service metadata, Docker configuration, and earning estimates - Frontend: Server-rendered templates with a responsive dark UI

For power users running services across multiple servers, CashPilot supports a federated master/child architecture. Every node runs a full CashPilot instance with its own dashboard. One instance is the master that aggregates everything into a unified fleet view; the rest are children that report upstream via outbound WebSocket.

The first CashPilot instance you deploy is the master by default. No extra configuration needed -- just deploy normally:
services:
cashpilot:
image: drumsergio/cashpilot:latest
ports:
- "8085:8080"
volumes:
- /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock
- cashpilot_data:/data
environment:
- CASHPILOT_SECRET_KEY=your-secret-key
- CASHPILOT_ROLE=master
- CASHPILOT_NODE_NAME=main-server
- TZ=Europe/Madrid
restart: unless-stopped
security_opt:
- no-new-privileges:true
volumes:
cashpilot_data:-
Generate a join token from the master's fleet dashboard or via the API:
curl -b cookies.txt http://master-ip:8085/api/federation/token \ -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"node_name": "server-2", "expires_hours": 720}'
-
Deploy the child on the remote server with the token:
services: cashpilot: image: drumsergio/cashpilot:latest ports: - "8085:8080" volumes: - /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock - cashpilot_data:/data environment: - CASHPILOT_SECRET_KEY=child-secret-key - CASHPILOT_ROLE=child - CASHPILOT_NODE_NAME=server-2 - CASHPILOT_MASTER_URL=ws://master-ip:8085/ws/federation - CASHPILOT_JOIN_TOKEN=<token-from-step-1> - TZ=Europe/Madrid restart: unless-stopped security_opt: - no-new-privileges:true volumes: cashpilot_data:
The child connects outbound to the master via WebSocket -- no port forwarding or VPN needed on the child side. It works behind any NAT or firewall. The master's fleet dashboard shows all connected nodes, their services, and live status. The master can also push commands (deploy, stop, restart) to any child remotely.
If you manage containers yourself (via Portainer, manual compose, etc.) and don't want CashPilot to deploy or control containers, run it without mounting the Docker socket:
volumes:
# - /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock # omit this
- cashpilot_data:/dataIn monitor-only mode, CashPilot still provides the service catalog, compose file export, earnings dashboard, and credential storage. You can combine this with the child role to report earnings and status to a master while managing containers externally. Use the Export Compose button in the UI to get ready-to-use docker-compose.yml files for any service.
Is bandwidth sharing safe?
Bandwidth sharing services generally route legitimate traffic (market research, ad verification, price comparison, content delivery) through your connection. That said, you are sharing your IP address, so review each service's terms of service and privacy policy carefully before signing up. Running these on a VPS rather than residential IP is an option for some services. This is not legal advice -- consult with the particular services you intend to use and, if needed, seek independent legal counsel regarding your jurisdiction.
How much can I earn?
Earnings vary widely based on location, number of devices, and which services you run. A realistic expectation for a single residential server running 10-15 services is $30 - $100/month. Adding more servers or GPU compute services can increase this significantly. The dashboard shows your actual earnings over time so you can optimize.
Can I run on a VPS or cloud server?
Some services require a residential IP and will not pay (or will ban) VPS/datacenter IPs. These are marked as "Residential Only" in the service catalog. Services that work on VPS are a good way to scale up without additional home hardware.
How are credentials stored?
All service credentials are encrypted at rest in the SQLite database using your CASHPILOT_SECRET_KEY. The database file lives in the mounted Docker volume (cashpilot_data:/data). No credentials are ever sent anywhere except to the service containers themselves.
What about security?
Every service CashPilot deploys runs inside its own isolated Docker container. Containers cannot access your host filesystem, other containers, or your local network unless explicitly configured to do so. CashPilot further hardens deployments with --security-opt no-new-privileges, preventing privilege escalation inside containers. Service credentials are encrypted at rest using Fernet symmetric encryption, and the Docker socket is the only host resource CashPilot requires.
That said, no setup is bulletproof. You are still running third-party software that routes external traffic through your network. Docker isolation significantly reduces the attack surface compared to running these services directly on your host, but it does not eliminate all risk. We recommend running CashPilot on a dedicated machine or VLAN, keeping Docker and your host OS up to date, and reviewing the open-source code of any service before deploying it.
What happens if a service container crashes?
CashPilot monitors container health continuously. If a service container exits unexpectedly, it is automatically restarted. The dashboard shows uptime and health status for every running service.

Contributions are welcome. To add a new service:
- Create a YAML file in the appropriate
services/subdirectory followingservices/_schema.yml - Run
python scripts/generate_docs.pyto regenerate the README table and guide pages - Submit a pull request
Do not edit the service table in this README directly — it is auto-generated from the YAML files in services/. Edit the YAML source of truth instead, then run the generator.
