PricingPrototype: free during beta, then from December 16, 2026 it costs $1 per 1,000 agent calls after 1,000 monthly included calls. Production: $20 a month with 20,000 agent calls included, then $1 per 1,000 calls after that. Top-ups: $1 per 1,000 calls, from $10 to $500 at a time, never expiring. Credit-based pricing: €0.039 per vCPU-hour (active only), €0.012 per GiB-hour for RAM (memory in use), €0.00008 per GiB-hour for disk (written space only). New accounts receive €30 in free credits. A typical 2 vCPU / 8 GiB machine costs approximately €0.03 per hour while running (with 10% vCPU activ
Key features
  • Prompt rebuilt from journal under token cap at each step to keep it bounded as history grows
  • Spending limits checked before each model call at token prices you declare
  • Resume after crash without repeating finished actions
  • Tool calls returned as actions for your code to carry out
  • Proof of what ran: check prompts, re-run engine, download hash-chained journal
  • Integrations with Vercel AI SDK, OpenAI Agents SDK, LangGraph, Mastra, Pydantic AI
  • MCP server for Claude Code, Claude Projects and Codex
  • Works with any model via bring-your-own-key
  • TypeScript and Python clients for HTTP API access
  • Hardware-isolated Linux VMs with persistent state between sessions
  • Snapshots and checkpoints for machine state management
  • Automatic hibernation after 4 hours idle, paying for disk only
  • Pre-installed tools: Claude Code, Docker, Node, Python, Go, git, Chrome, ffmpeg, nginx
  • Public HTTPS URL per machine with custom domain support
  • Egress allowlist for network security and isolation
  • CLI, API, Python and TypeScript SDKs for automation
  • Integration with GitHub, Linear and Slack across all machines
What makes it different
  • Bounded prompt under a fixed cap while history grows, so costs per call stop climbing on long sessions
  • Every run recorded with cryptographic proof: rebuilable prompts, hash-chained journal, re-runnable engine
  • Resumes from crash without repeating finished actions using stable idempotency keys
  • Budget enforcement before each model call, not reactive overage billing
  • No model key storage or logging; your provider bills you directly
  • Hardware-isolated real VMs instead of containers, with full kernel isolation
  • Persistent machines remember running processes and state between disconnects
  • Pay only for active resources used, not provisioned size
  • Free self-hosting up to 16 vCPUs on your own infrastructure
