Velo Workspaces: Local AI inference and disposable QA environments on Mac

Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I'm Gaoliang, maker of Velo Workspaces. I kept hitting the same wall: I wanted to test something destructive — a risky config change, an untrusted script, a fresh install — without touching my main Mac, and every VM tool I tried felt like it was built for running "another OS" as a novelty, not for actual engineering work. So I built Velo Workspaces around two things I actually needed: 🧠 AI Bridge — run inference on your Mac's own GPU, then reach it from inside a Linux workspace as a plain local endpoint. No API keys, no cloud, no usage costs. In my own benchmarks, throughput inside the workspace was within ~4% of running natively on the host. 🗑️ Disposable Workspaces — clone a fully configured base image in seconds via copy-on-write, run your test or risky command, close it, and it's gone — disk included. No snapshot to remember to delete, no "did I leave something installed last time" doubt. It's native macOS, built on Apple's own Virtualization framework — no account, no cloud dependency, everything stays on your Mac. One-time purchase, no subscription, no IAP. Would love your feedback, especially from anyone doing local AI dev or QA work on Apple Silicon. Happy to answer anything about how it works under the hood!
