An AI Assistant inside your cPanel, from day one

Ask the Assistant how to do things in cPanel. It is part of your plan, so you can use it before you connect an AI tool of your own.

  • Answers about your own domains, mailboxes, disk space and databases
  • Open it from the Ask AI button in cPanel
  • No extra sign-up

Connect your own AI tool, then ask in plain words

"Deploy the latest version of my site from my Git repository"

Your AI can pull the new code into your account, without you opening a file manager.

Git version control

"Create info@ and forward it to my personal email"

Email

"Point the shop subdomain to my new app"

DNS

"Why does my contact page show an error?"

Error logs

"How much space am I using, and what is taking it up?"

Disk usage

Frequently Asked

Questions before you connect

Quick, honest answers to the questions we hear most often. Still need help? Get in touch.

What is MCP?

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is the open standard AI tools use to connect to other software. Here it lets your AI tool use the cPanel tools in your own hosting account.

Which AI tools work?

Claude Code is the tool cPanel's own guide covers. Other AI tools that support MCP with a browser sign-in may work too. Check your tool's own guide for the exact steps.

Do I pay extra to use AI with my hosting?

The AI features in cPanel are included with your hosting. To connect your own AI tool, you link your cPanel account to a free online account. The AI tool itself is a separate service. Any subscription or usage fees it charges are between you and that provider, and are not included in your Trinico Cloud hosting fee.

Can my AI see anyone else's hosting?

No. The connection opens your own cPanel account only, and you can unlink it in cPanel whenever you like.

Do I still get normal cPanel hosting?

Yes. Everything works the way cPanel hosting always has. The AI connection is an extra way in, and you can use it as much or as little as you like.
