LobeChat provides Self-Hosted Version with Vercel and Docker Image. This allows you to deploy your own chatbot within a few minutes without any prior knowledge.

If you want to deploy this service yourself on Vercel, you can follow these steps:

• Prepare your OpenAI API Key.
• Click the button below to start deployment: Deploy with Vercel. Log in directly with your GitHub account, and remember to fill in the OPENAI_API_KEY(required) and ACCESS_CODE (recommended) on the environment variable section.
• After deployment, you can start using it.
• Bind a custom domain (optional): The DNS of the domain assigned by Vercel is polluted in some areas; binding a custom domain can connect directly.

If you have deployed your own project following the one-click deployment steps in the README, you might encounter constant prompts indicating "updates available." This is because Vercel defaults to creating a new project instead of forking this one, resulting in an inability to detect updates accurately.

We provide a Docker image for deploying the LobeChat service on your own private device. Use the following command to start the LobeChat service:

$ docker run -d -p 3210:3210 \
  -e OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-xxxx \
  -e ACCESS_CODE=lobe66 \
  lobehub/lobe-chat

$ docker run -d -p 3210:3210 \
  -e OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-xxxx \
  -e OPENAI_PROXY_URL=https://api-proxy.com/v1 \
  -e ACCESS_CODE=lobe66 \
  lobehub/lobe-chat
