Description

Boat delivers robust cloud-based virtual machines and persistent sandboxes specifically designed for managing long-lasting AI agents, empowering users to effortlessly create thousands of cloud instances equipped with web browsers and persistent storage while alleviating the burden of infrastructure management. Each sandbox functions as a comprehensive Ubuntu Linux virtual machine, providing SSH and SCP access, Docker compatibility, dedicated IPv4 or IPv6 addresses, a smooth 60 fps virtual desktop, and rapid disk-level forking capabilities from snapshots. Pre-installed tools such as Docker, VS Code, Chrome, Ghostty, GitHub CLI, Rust, Node.js, and Bun allow users to execute any development language, tool, or workflow seamlessly. Boat is compatible with various agents including Claude Code, Codex, and OpenCode, and it offers functionalities to prompt, observe, and manage agent environments remotely via its command-line interface, HTTP API, and SDKs available in both Python and TypeScript. Users can run commands, transfer files, and monitor agent communications, while also hosting applications accessible through public HTTPS links and utilizing integrated desktops and web browsers for enhanced productivity. This comprehensive solution not only simplifies the management of AI agents but also fosters a more efficient development experience for users across diverse projects.

Description

boxd offers developers, engineering teams, and AI-agent applications access to persistent Linux virtual machines. Each virtual machine operates with its own kernel and features such as SSH access, a public HTTPS address, and persistent disk storage, allowing for the execution of software requiring a comprehensive computing environment, including Docker, systemd, long-running agents, and development servers, all within an isolated setup. Users have the ability to fork a live machine along with its memory and disk state, enabling them to experiment with alternative approaches without having to rebuild the entire environment; additionally, idle machines can enter a hibernation mode while preserving their disk state. Management of these machines is facilitated through SSH, a command-line interface, an API, and SDKs in Python and TypeScript. Organizations can easily integrate with platforms like GitHub, Linear, and Slack for enhanced collaboration. boxd can be operated as a managed cloud service located in Frankfurt, or it can be self-hosted on Linux infrastructure that supports KVM, with free deployment options available for configurations up to 16 vCPUs. Practical applications for boxd include cloud development environments, AI-agent test beds, background coding assistants, and staging environments for previews. This versatility makes it an excellent solution for teams looking to optimize their development workflows.
