Render is the AI-native cloud platform, used by more than 8 million builders. It gives teams an intuitive way to deploy and scale the AI agents inside their products, the long-running services behind them, and the data they depend on, all on a single platform. Git-based deploys, private networking, and preview environments come built in, with no glue code to write.
This is the 2nd launch from Render. View more
Render Sandboxes
Launched this week
Render Sandboxes give every agent its own isolated Linux computer.
Sandboxes starts in under a second and can run any agent or harness, like Claude Code or Codex. Your agent can also run your app with Docker Compose to test its changes.
You decide which domains each sandbox can reach. When your agent goes idle, the sandbox suspends and compute charges stop. It wakes with files and memory intact. And you can reliably run thousands at once - all on the same platform as the rest of your app.
Launch Team / Built With
All our scheduled agents run on one laptop, and one evening the 6pm run just died because the lid was closed. Can a sandbox wake itself on a schedule, say every day at 6pm, or does something outside have to send it the first command?
@julien_zammit right now, it requires an outside command. If you'd like, you can actually set up a cronjob on Render as well to send that command at a regular time, which would ensure the Sandbox was running at the times you'd like!
The isolation angle is the part that feels useful. Running several coding agents on one laptop is fine until memory dies and every session goes with it.
Curious how suspend and wake behave after a heavy install. If one sandbox hits a memory limit, do the others keep running cleanly, and does wake restore the working tree without a full reinstall?
