Run untrusted code safely in isolated environments for AI agents and code interpreters

Pause and resume sessions while maintaining filesystem, memory, and running processes

Scale to zero when idle, burst to thousands of containers in seconds

Bring your own Docker images for full environment control, including running the Docker daemon inside containers

Every machine is fully dedicated to you, with direct access to GPU, CPU, memory, and storage.

Run AI workloads on isolated GPU resources with secure SSH access.

All data and the OS are permanently wiped after server rental ends.

Offers ultra-low latency desktops that mimic local experience.

All servers, data, and operations are based in Switzerland.
