OpenComputer – Long-running cloud infrastructure for AI agents

Beyond sandboxes.

Today, agents use sandboxes to run untrusted code. Disposable computers that spin up, do a task, and disappear. But agents are getting more ambitious. They need a whole computer at their disposal - always on, always persistent, always ready.

Sandboxes are for throwaway tasks. Agents need something that sticks around.

It’s time to give your agents a real computer.

Every OpenComputer is a real machine — a full filesystem, full OS access, and persistent state. It stays always on, ready when you need it. No timeouts, no teardowns. Your computer is just there.

Resize memory and CPU at runtime to match your workload. When you don’t need it, hibernate and wake it up at any point — your state is exactly where you left it. It scales to thousands in the cloud, and you only pay for what you use.

Built for B2B agent platforms.

If you’re building the next Lovable, Devin, or Bolt, your users don’t just need a sandbox that runs a script and dies. They need a computer that remembers what it installed yesterday, keeps their files between sessions, and picks up exactly where it left off. Sandboxes give you isolation. OpenComputer gives you isolationandpersistence.

Ephemeral sandboxes are stateless - every session starts from scratch. OpenComputer VMs are persistent - they stay on until you explicitly stop or delete them, so state survives across sessions without any extra work.

No more re-installing node_modules from scratch because the container timed out. Your VM stays alive as long as you need it. Need more CPU mid-session? Resize on the fly without restarting.
