What is Velocity?

Velocity is a modern, high-performance proxy server that excels in every aspect. With its unparalleled speed and next-level design, Velocity offers a comprehensive alternative to Waterfall/BungeeCord, complete with its own plugin ecosystem.

Why Choose Velocity?

Out with the Old, In with the New

Velocity is the ultimate choice when it comes to proxy software. Its next-level technical design significantly enhances its capabilities, allowing it to outperform BungeeCord by leaps and bounds.
