The honest brief
Daytona
Boots an isolated sandbox with its own kernel and filesystem in under 90ms, so agents run untrusted code safely.
- Sub-100ms sandbox start
- Full isolated kernel + FS
- SDKs in many languages
- Open-source, self-host option
- AGPL-3.0 may deter some
- Infra to manage if self-hosted
- Newer entrant
Runloop
Pairs on-demand coding-agent Devboxes with a public benchmarking suite, so you can both run agents and measure them on one platform.
- Isolated cloud sandboxes for agent code
- Scales to thousands of parallel Devboxes
- Full filesystem, build-tool, compiler access
- $50 in free starter credits
- Enterprise VPC + compliance options
- Usage-based pricing can be hard to forecast
- Aimed at developers, not end users
- Proprietary, no self-host option
