Deploy managed AI agents as persistent, always-on cloud VMs with steerable execution and permanent HTTP endpoints.

Key features

  • Persistent VMs: Always-on virtual machines with a full filesystem and OS access that survive restarts, so agent state is exactly where you left it.
  • Elastic Compute: Resize memory (1-16 GB) and vCPU while a VM is running to match the workload of the agent harness.
  • Instant Checkpoints: Snapshot any VM state to fork or roll back in seconds, recovering from bad agent runs without teardown.
  • One-Prompt Deploy: Paste a single prompt into Claude Code, Codex, or Cursor to install the CLI, log in, initialize, and deploy an agent end-to-end.
  • Permanent Agent URLs: Every deployed agent gets a stable HTTP endpoint reachable from Slack, webhooks, and cron jobs.
  • Steerable Mid-Run: Interrupt and redirect long-running agents without killing the session, keeping durable state intact.
  • Hibernate & Wake: Pause idle VMs to stop paying for compute and resume them instantly when the agent is needed again.

Best for

  • Shipping B2B Agent Platforms: Provide end users of your Lovable/Devin/Bolt-style product with per-user VMs that remember installed dependencies and files across sessions.
  • Long-Running Autonomous Tasks: Run overnight research, scraping, or refactor agents that need to persist context across many hours without a sandbox timeout.
  • Slack & Cron-Triggered Agents: Wire a permanent agent URL to a Slack app or cron so a team can invoke the same agent state from anywhere.
  • Rapid Agent Prototyping from an IDE: Turn a natural-language prompt inside Claude Code or Cursor into a live, invokable agent without provisioning infrastructure.
  • Safe Rollbacks for Autonomous Coders: Use checkpoints to fork an agent VM before risky changes and restore instantly if the agent breaks its environment.
