    CreateOS Sandbox - Run untrusted code in isolated Firecracker micro-VMs

     Info
    Sold by: CreateOS 
    Give every agent its own computer. Each sandbox is a full Linux VM with its own kernel, created in under a second through an API. Pause to zero when idle, fork a running machine, and mount your own S3 buckets with no egress fees.

    Overview

    CreateOS Sandbox gives every agent, and every piece of code your team did not write, its own computer.

    A sandbox is a disposable Linux virtual machine your product creates on demand through an API, in under a second. It has its own kernel, its own filesystem and its own network identity. Nothing is shared with the host or with another tenant, and there is no setting that turns that off by accident.

    Independently benchmarked by ComputeSDK on 14 August 2026: 0.34 seconds to a running machine, fastest of the 26 providers measured, and 100 percent success with 100 sandboxes launched at once.

    WHAT ONE SANDBOX DOES

    • Start and destroy on an API call. Create from TypeScript, the CLI, MCP or REST. An agent can provision its own machine through a tool call.

    • Pause to zero, resume in place. Pause is a snapshot, not a shutdown. Full guest state freezes to disk and compute billing stops. Resume restores processes and memory exactly as they were. Auto-pause on idle is configurable from 60 to 86,400 seconds.

    • Fork a running machine. Copy a live sandbox mid-run to branch an agent's state.

    • Private sandbox network. Sandboxes find each other by name over a private network, so a team of agents can work together without crossing the public internet.

    • Live web URL. Expose an HTTP service from anything you run, for preview links and demos.

    • Bring your own storage. Mount Amazon S3, MinIO or Cloudflare R2 as a filesystem. No egress fees, at any volume.

    • Bring your own image. Run your Docker image, or build templates for ML, deep learning and DevOps workloads.

    ISOLATION YOU CAN PROVE

    • A real machine boundary. Every sandbox is a Firecracker micro-VM running its own Linux kernel. Code inside one sandbox cannot see the host, another tenant or your network.

    • Contained by default. Even a guest-kernel compromise stays inside that one micro-VM. The host kernel is not in the blast radius.

    • Egress you control. Outbound traffic runs against a kernel-enforced allowlist using eBPF. No inbound by default, and you can read exactly what was blocked.

    • Environment and firewall management. Set environment variables and egress rules per sandbox, with a data cap per machine.

    THE SPEC

    • Shapes. From a quarter of a CPU up to 8 CPUs and 16 GB of RAM, with 10 to 60 GB of disk.

    • Regions. USA, EMEA, MENA and APAC, live today.

    • Runtimes preinstalled. Ubuntu 26.04 with Node.js LTS, Bun, Python 3.12 with pip and uv, Go 1.26 and Rust 1.83 stable.

    • Deployment. Our cloud, your cloud, or self-hosted on your own machines.

    • Compliance. Inside the NodeOps ISO/IEC 27001 and SOC 2 Type II scope.

    • Scale. More than 190,000 sandboxes created since June 2026.

    WHO IT IS FOR

    • AI coding tools and app builders. Run what the model wrote and hand the user a live preview link.

    • Agents that run for hours. Pause while an agent waits on a person. Resume exactly where it stopped.

    • Customer-written code. Plugins, scripts and integrations. One customer's code cannot see another customer's machine.

    • Chat and analytics on customer data. Your model writes the query, the sandbox runs it, your application never touches the data.

    • Agent teams. Every agent on its own machine, talking to the others privately by name.

    • Evals at volume. Hundreds of short-lived machines a day, created and destroyed automatically.

    NOT FOR YOU IF

    • You only ever run code your own team wrote and reviewed.

    • You need GPUs. We do not offer GPU sandboxes.

    Highlights

    • Real isolation, not a shared kernel. Every sandbox is a Firecracker micro-VM running its own Linux kernel, so code inside one cannot see the host, another tenant or your network. Even a guest-kernel compromise stays inside that one machine. Outbound traffic runs against a kernel-enforced eBPF allowlist with no inbound by default, and you can read exactly what was blocked.
    • Fast to start, and cheap to leave running. Independently benchmarked by ComputeSDK on 14 August 2026 at 0.34 seconds to a running machine, fastest of the 26 providers measured, with 100 percent success on 100 launched at once. Pause is a snapshot, not a shutdown: guest state freezes to disk and compute billing stops, then resume restores processes and memory exactly as they were.
    • Built for agents, deployed where you need it. Create, fork and destroy sandboxes from TypeScript, the CLI, MCP or REST, so an agent can provision its own machine through a tool call. Sandboxes reach each other privately by name. Mount your own S3, MinIO or R2 with no egress fees. Run in USA, EMEA, MENA or APAC, in your own cloud, or self-hosted on your own hardware.

     Info

    Dimensions summary

    You pick one of three contract tiers sized by compute capacity. Each tier sets a ceiling on cores and memory, bundles a monthly credit allowance, and applies a multiplier to credit top-ups. Beginner caps at 48 cores and 48 GB for a single product. Pro raises the ceiling to 1,000 cores and 1,000 GB across several products. Enterprise reaches 2,000 cores and 1 TB, starts from a set credit amount, and adds self-hosted or own-cloud deployment plus region selection. You buy Enterprise only through a private offer. Credits fund per-second usage as you run sandboxes.

    Top-of-mind questions for buyers

    Credits fund per-second sandbox usage. You are billed per vCPU-hour, per GiB-RAM-hour, and per GB-hour of storage while a sandbox runs. The core and memory caps in each tier set the ceiling on how much compute you can run at once, not a flat allotment.
    Pausing a sandbox snapshots its state and stops vCPU billing. Memory and storage charges continue while paused, since your state stays preserved on disk. You can set an inactivity timeout so idle sandboxes auto-pause and hold their place without a running compute bill.
    Enterprise adds deployment in your own cloud or self-hosted machines, where sandboxes and compute stay in your environment while the vendor runs the control plane. It also lets you select regions across USA, EMEA, MENA and APAC. It starts from a set credit amount and is sold only through a private offer.
