OpenMetal delivers hosted private cloud and bare metal infrastructure for organizations that have outgrown public cloud pricing or need more control than a hyperscaler will give them.
Built on OpenStack and Ceph, our platform gives you a fully managed private cloud without the cost and complexity of building your own from the ground up. You get dedicated hardware, root-level access, and a transparent fixed-cost model so your infrastructure bill stays predictable as your workloads grow.
Need bare metal without the private cloud overhead? Our dedicated bare metal servers deploy in minutes and can run standalone or integrate directly with an OpenMetal private cloud. Same fixed pricing, same dedicated hardware, no shared resources.
OpenMetal is built for engineering teams, DevOps, and infrastructure leads who are done deciphering complex cloud bills and being financially punished for their growth.

Vehicle Acquisition Network (VAN) is private-party vehicle acquisition software for franchise and independent auto dealerships. It helps dealers buy used cars directly from consumers in their local market, alongside trade-ins and instead of paying up at auction.
VAN pulls for-sale-by-owner listings from 25+ online marketplaces into one dashboard, filters out dealer and scam listings and Do-Not-Call numbers, and adds VIN decoding and market valuation to each vehicle. Buyers call, text, and email sellers from inside VAN, and every conversation stays attached to the car it is about. On VAN Accelerate™, outreach and follow-up run automatically, KBB ICO leads get a text back within minutes, and AccuTrade leads get an automatic response.
For dealers without a buyer on staff, VAN Managed Buyer™ supplies a full-time buyer who is hired, trained, and managed by VAN. The dealership still makes the final buy decision and signs the check. Every plan includes an Acquisition Coach™, and VAN works with vAuto, VINCUE, CARFAX, AutoCheck, and most dealer CRMs.
VAN was founded in 2013 and serves dealers in the United States, Puerto Rico, and Canada. Plans start at $1,695 per month. To see VAN on your market, call 855-952-4949.

KnoxCall
Every app, build pipeline and AI agent that calls Stripe, OpenAI or any other third-party API needs that API key. So copies of live keys pile up in .env files, CI settings, laptops and agent environments, and each copy is one more place a key can leak from: a poisoned package, a prompt-injected agent, a compromised build or a config file pushed by mistake. A stolen key keeps working until someone notices, then has to be replaced everywhere it was copied.
KnoxCall keeps the real key in one place and adds it to each call on its way out. Your apps, pipelines and agents hold only a KnoxCall token. If a token leaks, one click revokes it everywhere, without rotating the provider key. Every call is logged with the name of the app or agent that made it.
Because every call already passes through KnoxCall, it's also the natural place to put guardrails on AI agents. Each agent can be given its own spending limit, every prompt is checked before it reaches the model, and the personal data KnoxCall detects is swapped out before the model sees it, then put back in the reply.
Security teams stay in control of the foundations. CI jobs can authenticate with workload identity instead of a stored secret, and on the Enterprise plan you can lock your keys with a master key held in your own cloud account and manage access through your existing single sign-on and SCIM provisioning.
KnoxCall fits the stack you already use, with SDKs for Node, Python, Go, PHP, Ruby, React and the browser. Start on the free plan with no card required, or move to a paid plan from $19 a month.

Apache Knox
The Knox API Gateway functions as a reverse proxy, prioritizing flexibility in policy enforcement and backend service management for the requests it handles. It encompasses various aspects of policy enforcement, including authentication, federation, authorization, auditing, dispatch, host mapping, and content rewriting rules. A chain of providers, specified in the topology deployment descriptor associated with each Apache Hadoop cluster secured by Knox, facilitates this policy enforcement. Additionally, the cluster definition within the descriptor helps the Knox Gateway understand the structure of the cluster, enabling effective routing and translation from user-facing URLs to the internal workings of the cluster. Each secured Apache Hadoop cluster is equipped with its own REST APIs, consolidated under a unique application context path. Consequently, the Knox Gateway can safeguard numerous clusters while offering REST API consumers a unified endpoint for seamless access. This design enhances both security and usability by simplifying interactions with multiple backend services.
