How it works

3

Sleep well

Automated backups every 6 hours

Built for developers

Everything you need, nothing you don't.

Content-defined chunking

Deduplication saves 60–80% storage. Only unique data blocks are stored, so similar files across VMs barely use extra space.

Client-side encryption

AES-256-GCM encryption happens on your VM before upload. Your keys, your data. We never see your plaintext files.

Incremental backups

Only changed blocks are uploaded on subsequent backups. A typical incremental backup takes seconds, not minutes.

Instant restore

Download any file or restore a full snapshot. Browse your backups in the web UI and pick exactly what you need.

Full VM or selective

Back up everything or pick specific paths. Exclude node_modules and other junk with simple glob patterns.

Zero config

Works out of the box on any exe.dev VM. One install command, and you're backing up. No YAML, no setup wizards.

Built for exe.dev

exebackup is designed from the ground up for exe.dev VMs. It hooks into exe.dev's authentication, so there's no extra credentials to manage.

Optimized for the typical 25 GB exe.dev VM. Content-defined chunking means your 25 GB VM might only use 8 GB of backup storage after deduplication.

Runs as a lightweight agent that stays out of your way. It uses minimal CPU and memory, and backups happen in the background.
