Termius - AI Tools Nav

What it is for

Termius is an SSH/SFTP + host-vault desk: you open Groups AWS (92 Hosts) / Staging, pick api-db.m4.xlarge-west-1, and Starter stays Free. Use it when the job is a synced host vault you start at a public $, not when you need iTerm2’s local GPU chrome first.

Soft-note: Starter Free + Pro US$10/mo billed annually + Team US$20/seat/mo + Business US$30/seat/mo (annual) — termius.com/pricing (schema Offers: Starter 0 / Pro 10 / Team 20 / Business 30 USD). Distinct from iTerm2, Ghostty, and Warp.

What makes it unique: the cover is Termius’s official Hosts / Groups still (AWS 92 Hosts, api-db.m4.xlarge-west-1, sidebar Hosts / Keychain / Port forwarding / Snippets) from the Framer marketing UI — not a wordmark. The AWS group itself is ops of the vault.

Key features

Groups — AWS / Acme / Staging / Development (cover still; product). One desk. Cover AWS sits here.
Host grid — api-db.m4.xlarge-west-1 / backup-proxy (cover). A host, not a $10 meter.
Sidebar vault — Hosts / Keychain / Port forwarding / Snippets / Known Hosts (cover). A vault, not Get started.
SSH + SFTP — listed on Starter (pricing). A protocol, not Enterprise.
Port forwarding — on Free and paid cards (pricing). A tunnel, not a GPU tile.
Multi-device sync — Pro unlocks the vault across devices (pricing). A sync, not SSO.

New Host / Terminal are CTAs (not desks). Pro / Team / Business $ stay in Pricing. There is no AI extra to drop.

Who it's for

Best fit: people who will stay on Starter Free while they open a first AWS host — then Pro at US$10/mo yearly when they need synced vault / snippets automation, not Warp Build $20 first unless they want an agentic local terminal, and not if they only need a local emulator.

Alternatives

iTerm2 — a local Mac terminal when you want Free (GPL-2.0), not a synced host vault.

Warp — an agentic terminal when you want Free $0 / Build $20, not Termius Groups.
