Rool Review: A Private AI Machine in the Cloud, Hosted in the EU
ProductivityFreemiumEvery user gets a private “Rool Machine”: a full Linux machine in the EU cloud that keeps files, chat and memory together, runs software, and works with AI models the company self-hosts in the EU.
About Rool
Rool is built around a deliberately physical mental model. Every user gets their own “Rool Machine”, a full Linux machine running in the cloud on EU infrastructure the company manages. Files, chats and memory live inside that machine, and software runs on it too, so a conversation is not the product: it is the front door to a workspace that keeps state between tasks. That persistence is the differentiator. The machine keeps what the vendor calls Object Memory, a running record of your files, tasks and context: start a task in the chat and the machine still has the relevant material when you come back, even across days. Because it is a real machine rather than a thin chatbot, you can ask it to work through multi-step jobs, and it keeps the intermediate results. The AI side stays in Europe. Models are self-hosted in the EU on infrastructure the company manages, and the company states plainly that there are no ads, no sales of your data and no training on your files or conversations. Team access works by invite, and the same machine is reachable from web, iPhone and Android clients. There is a real free tier, not just a trial. Standard is free forever with 240 AI credits per day, two machines and 1 GB of storage each, with the balance refilling hourly. Plus costs €9 per month for 1,200 daily credits, 2 GB per machine, a custom subdomain and connectors plus custom MCP servers. Pro is €25 per month for 4,800 daily credits, five machines and 10 GB each, plus priority support. One point is worth spelling out. “Private” here means a private cloud machine hosted in the EU, not on-device or offline processing, so heavily offline or air-gapped use is not what this product is for. If that mental model fits, it is one of the few workspace products that keeps files, agents and memory in one EU-managed place.

Best For
Recommended use cases and scenarios where Rool shines.
Pros
- A genuine free-forever plan: 240 AI credits a day, two machines, 1 GB each, no card required
- Files, chat, memory and running software share one persistent machine that keeps state between tasks
- Models are self-hosted in the EU on infrastructure the company manages, and content is never used to train them
- No ads, no data sales, and hosting on European infrastructure
- Web, iPhone and Android clients reach the same machine, with team access by invite
- Connectors and custom MCP servers bring external tools into the workspace on paid plans
Cons
- The machine is cloud-hosted in the EU rather than on your device, so offline use is not offered
- Daily AI credits cap heavier use, and storage is limited per machine: 1 GB on free, 2 GB on Plus, 10 GB on Pro
- Connectors and custom MCP servers are only on Plus and Pro plans
- A young product launched in late 2026, so enterprise maturity and the integration catalogue are still forming
- The free balance refills hourly up to 1,000 credits, so sustained heavy use pulls toward paid tiers
