NetPilot

What is NetPilot?

NetPilot is an AI network engineer that designs, builds, and validates multi-vendor network labs from a plain-English prompt. It deploys real network operating systems as containers, providing SSH access to actual CLIs. Nokia SR Linux is built in; Cisco, Juniper, and Arista are supported via bring-your-own-image (BYOI). The platform is cloud-native, browser-based, and offers a free tier.

What can NetPilot do?

• 01

  AI-designed labs

  Describe any topology in plain English — AI designs, configures, and deploys it; SSH in to verify.

• 02

  Multi-vendor support

  Nokia SR Linux built in; Cisco, Juniper, Arista via BYOI. 9+ NOSes.

• 03

  Real CLIs over SSH

  SSH into real network OSes from the browser — actual network-OS code, not a simulation.

• 04

  Multi-turn iteration

  “Add an Arista spine, move OSPF to area 0.0.0.1” → AI updates across all devices.

• 05

  Cloud-native

  Browser only. Nothing to install. No VMs, no server for the cloud option.

• 06

  Import configs

  Import existing device configs to extend, fix, or validate them.

• 07

  MCP-connectable

  MCP server for your AI agents; connects to NetBox, Nautobot & Nornir (read-only).

• 08

  Fast deployment

  ~2 minutes from prompt to working multi-vendor lab.

Use Cases

• “Network engineers — Test changes before prod: Mirror your network, run the change, and see what breaks — before it ever touches a production device.
• “Network engineers — Real multi-vendor CLIs, no gear: SSH into real network OSes from the browser — Nokia SR Linux built in, Cisco, Juniper, and Arista via BYOI.
• “Network engineers — Let the agent do the setup: Describe the topology in plain English; the AI agent designs it, writes per-vendor configs, and deploys it in ~2 minutes — then you verify on the real CLI.
• “Enterprise teams — Proof-of-concept labs: Spin up a working demo environment in minutes, show a prospect exactly how your product performs in their network, then tear it down after the call.
• “Enterprise teams — Change validation: Import production configs into a digital twin and test routing changes, firewall updates, and firmware upgrades before they touch live infrastructure.
