Zero telemetry
Pilot does not phone home. The only outbound connections are to your own Kubernetes API servers, plus an AI endpoint you configure yourself.
Features
Everything Pilot ships today
Every feature is in every edition. The 14-day trial includes all of it. Private by design, native on every platform, and one client for every cluster.
Private by design
No telemetry, no phone-home. Cluster data stays on your machine.
Offline licenses
A license is a signed file, verified locally. It works without internet access, so it fits air-gapped and locked-down environments. No activation server.
Optional AI assistant
The assistant is off by default. It only talks to an AI endpoint you explicitly configure and consent to. No endpoint, no traffic.
Your credentials stay yours
Pilot is kubeconfig-native and talks directly to your clusters, with nothing in between.
Fast and native
A real desktop app, built on Java 25. One file, no JRE to install.
Self-contained, around 100 MB
Ships with a trimmed bundled runtime. No Java installation required.
Virtual-threaded I/O
Built on Java 25 with virtual threads for all cluster I/O. Dozens of watches, log streams and port-forwards stay responsive.
Native packages
Windows (.msi), macOS (.dmg, Apple Silicon and Intel) and Linux (.deb/.rpm).
Dark and light themes, HiDPI
Looks right on every screen, in whichever theme you work in.
One client for every cluster
Connect to all of your clusters at once. No per-cluster setup.
Kubeconfig-native context management
Pilot reads the kubeconfigs you already have. Switch contexts instantly and keep multiple clusters connected at the same time.
Multi-cluster, simultaneously
Work across prod, staging and dev side by side. Each cluster keeps its own live views and terminals.
Multi-cluster global search
One search box across every connected cluster. Find a pod, secret or CRD instance anywhere.
Resources, live
Informer-backed views that update the moment the cluster changes.
Live lists for every kind, CRDs included
Resource lists are informer-backed. Updates arrive row by row as granular events, never as a full-table refresh.
Detail views and YAML edit with diff
Inspect any resource, edit its YAML and apply. A diff shows exactly what will change before it does.
Secret and env viewers, jump links
Decode secrets and inspect environment in place, and jump straight to related resources from anywhere.
Resource relationship graphs
See how a Deployment fans out into ReplicaSets, Pods, Services and more, visually.
RBAC reasoning
"Can I do X here?" Pilot answers it for the current context, so you do not find out the hard way.
Operate and debug
The incident workflow, in one window.
Streaming logs
Stream logs from multiple pods at once. Follow, filter, and download the result.
Exec terminal
Open a shell in any container with proper terminal emulation: colors, control sequences, signals.
Resource actions
Scale, restart, delete, cordon and drain, from the resource you're already viewing.
Port-forward manager
Start, monitor and stop port-forwards across all of your clusters from a single panel.

Try all of it, free for 14 days
No account or credit card required. After the trial, read-only access keeps working. Mutating actions need a license.
