Who is it for?
Decision note
Rebuilt from the original export under the complete V412/V411 factual-source-verification workflow. Preview only. Apply remains blocked until Failures = 0, Warnings = 0, Unmapped = 0, Missing = 0; explicit clears are reviewed; image import is disabled or V380 accepts the asset; a representative WordPress edit screen is compared with the export and proposed row; and a post-Apply zero-change Preview succeeds.
Key features
Sub-90ms sandbox provisioning
Container, VM, Windows, and GPU sandboxes
Snapshots, volumes, and persistent state
APIs, SDKs, network controls, and open codebase
Use cases
Run coding agents securely
Execute untrusted generated code
Create evaluation environments
Scale isolated CPU and GPU workloads
Pros
- $200 free compute is included
- Per-second usage pricing
- AGPL-3.0 open-source control plane
Limitations
Users must still design orchestration, identity, secrets, and policy controls.
Generated code should be treated as untrusted and constrained with least privilege.
