Got a bunch of Daytona credits which are close to useless given their restrictions until you hit tier 3.
You seem like you're actually slightly cheaper than https://boat.dev/ but with less storage? That's the closest to your pricing unless I'm mistaken. Any other insight as to differences between you two?
Also I'll add you to a list I've been maintaining of sandbox providers, congrats on the launch!
We did some detailed pricing analysis here https://www.agent37.com/pricing#sources
For storage you can request more storage if your use case needs it. And yes would appreciate it if you can include us.
You guys are operating in a very competitive space. This stuff is fun to build, so a lot of engineers will end up building it. Not to discourage you, but I suspect it will be difficult to capture much value selling this offering as its going to be race to the bottom against very well funded alternatives that can sell these features at a loss in order to get you to use their databases and other offerings that are higher margin and stickier.
As you guys learn more about how to take this sort of technology to market, you may consider trying to get closer to the actual work that people actually need these agents to do. What can you do better because you have this technology? For example, I work in healthcare administration and we have built our own agent sandbox infrastructure on top of firecracker microvms that solve similar use cases as Agent37. We will never sell it. It's part of our competitive advantage for doing healthcare tasks.
Food for thought! Good luck!
Yeah in addition to sandbox we also have managed MCPs and our own LLM gateway to make building hosting agent harnesses easier. Most of our customers host hermes, opencode, claude code etc. and needed an easier setup so we ended up offering our own LLM gateway for it, ready to use with the sandbox
My use case was to play around with hermes. I was using it for a while but I didn’t like how it ended up (the whole set up became overran with files and was a mess, my fault).
I still haven’t 100% figured out how I may want to use the service again, but I thought it was super easy to set up.
My only feedback is that some connectors for google’s integration were kind of privacy nightmare the last time I checked.
Google’s API for using AI has abominable UI and set up.
It would be nice to be able to bridge the gap of simplifying Google’s AI/Service integration while not having to hand over access to every Google service I use.
For connectors we do offer managed MCPs like Composio, BraveSearch, and even an LLM gateway (which routes to openrouter). So what we have is simply a pass through for now and we're not looking to do more there. Since most of our early customers were just launching personal agents like Hermes, OpenClaw, Claude Code and wanted an easy white label setup.
Although now it's expanded to just sandbox usecases.
> When you look at agent harnesses, ... CPU/RAM utilization we could lower the cost.
How does it work today? Is the harness (assuming it means the agentic loop) located in a separate VM and each loop-run invokes a separate sandboxing VM?
How would you compare what you do to fly.io's Sprites (which is currently atop my To Try list)?
Fly certainly has great branding since they've been around for a while now. So they have a distribution advantage. But I think at some point they will also need to own some niche rather than just being a generic sandbox company, given how competitive the space is.
YC batch are becoming more like hunger games.
I know a few companies where this is just a feature like digitalocean it is just a feature.
Once there is a winner, there will be a price correction.
In your case, positioning yourself as a cheap provider is inherently a bad idea.
Only if there is some form of lock in or the others go out of business. Both of those are low probability. I'd put a friendly wager on the (lack of) increase of token costs in the next 2 years.
There is another even cheaper sandbox which is in YC (boat.dev)
How do you compare to them and how are you cheaper then they are?
Yeah, this seems like a niche where multiple startups are coming in. But if I remember correctly, we're about 3X cheaper than boat. We did a detailed comparison of all sandbox companies and where we stand across vendors here
