Deploy and Host OpenMAIC on Railway
About Hosting
OpenMAIC (Open Multi-Agent Interactive Classroom) is an open-source AI learning platform that generates full classroom experiences from a prompt or document input. It combines multi-agent orchestration with scene generation (slides, quizzes, interactive HTML, and project-based activities), plus optional voice and whiteboard-style outputs.
This Railway template deploys OpenMAIC as a single container service using a pre-built Docker image (xiaosong233/openmaic-railway:latest) and exposes it on port 3000. No external database is required by default.
Why Deploy
- Self-hosted AI classroom: Keep your learning data and generated content under your own infrastructure.
- Fast setup: One service, one public domain, minimal wiring.
- Provider flexibility: Supports multiple LLM vendors through environment variables.
- Production-ready container: Uses a pre-built, multi-arch Docker image suitable for Railway runtime environments.
- Easy template reuse: Ship once and reuse for demos, teams, or educational deployments.
Common Use Cases
- Build an internal AI teaching assistant for schools, labs, or training teams.
- Generate interactive lessons from course material and PDFs.
- Run a private alternative to hosted AI classroom products.
- Prototype multi-agent educational workflows with custom LLM provider keys.
