Built for People Who Want Real Privacy

Every feature in CreateMyVPN exists for one reason: to give you a VPN you can genuinely trust because you built it yourself.

Most VPN apps are designed to be as simple as possible because their goal is to sell you a subscription. CreateMyVPN is also simple to use, but for a different reason: it automates a process that used to require real DevOps knowledge. Under the hood, it is doing exactly what a senior engineer would do to set up a private WireGuard VPN. Creating a VPC, launching an EC2 instance or a Droplet, connecting over SSH, installing WireGuard, generating keys, writing config files and starting the tunnel. All of that happens in about 90 seconds.

The difference is that you own every resource it creates. The server is in your cloud account. The private keys never leave your device. When you are done, you destroy everything with one click and stop paying for it. There is no ongoing subscription, no company storing your logs, and no shared infrastructure.

WireGuard vs OpenVPN: Why It Matters

WireGuard is the next-generation VPN protocol. Here is what that means in practice.

OpenVPN was written in 2001 and has accumulated over 100,000 lines of code across its 20-year history. Auditing a codebase of that size takes months of work by specialist security researchers. WireGuard was written from scratch with a focus on simplicity and auditability. At around 4,000 lines of code, a competent engineer can read the entire codebase in a day.

Performance is also significantly better. WireGuard uses ChaCha20 for encryption and Poly1305 for message authentication, which are faster than the cipher suites used by OpenVPN and do not depend on hardware acceleration to perform well. On a standard cloud instance, WireGuard consistently achieves over 1 Gbps throughput. OpenVPN on the same hardware typically caps out at around 400 Mbps.

Connection and reconnection time is near-instant with WireGuard. OpenVPN takes 5 to 10 seconds to establish a connection because of its TLS handshake. This matters when you are switching between Wi-Fi and mobile data, or when a network change briefly drops the tunnel.
