Problem Solved
What problem does Ghost solve?
It's for gamers and server admins who want to host multiplayer game servers. Today they waste time manually configuring terminals, Docker, SSH, and firewalls, or dealing with complex hosting panels. Ghost replaces that with a single click: pick a game, pick a region, and start. For example, a group of friends wanting to play Minecraft together can have a dedicated server running in under 60 seconds without touching a command line.

Beta, Linux, or recovery edge cases often ship without SLA coverage.
Team and business tiers usually move to sales-led quoting.
