What Promigence is

Promigence is a sandbox platform for AI agents: production-grade, fully isolated sandboxes that start in milliseconds, stay fast at a thousand at once, and bill by the second.

Each sandbox opens on the customer's own project, already installed and checked by the customer's own test command, so an agent starts work instead of setup. One sandbox can become a thousand copies at once, and an idle sandbox can sleep without being billed and wake where it left off.

Promigence runs any agent workload: coding agents, background agents, code review, agentic CI, evals and benchmarks, reinforcement-learning rollouts, and a sandbox per user inside an app.

What it does

Snapshots of your project
Your project, installed once from a container image with your repository cloned at a pinned commit, and checked by your test command. A snapshot that fails its own test is never stored and never billed.
Copies at scale
Start one sandbox or a thousand from the same snapshot, each a fresh, identical copy.
Pause and wake
Sandboxes pause when idle, are not billed while asleep, and wake with their memory and files intact.
Runs with a validity report
Run a command across many sandboxes and get a report that separates environment failures from task failures. An environment failure is not billed when our side can show it was ours.
Quote and hard cap
The maximum cost of a run is quoted before it starts, and a run that would exceed the cap is refused.
Reproducible by hash
The same snapshot hash returns the same environment on any later date, so a result can be cited and re-run.
Network control
Each sandbox can have full outbound access, none, or run behind an outbound allow-list, and refused connections are recorded.
Secrets bound to a host
A secret can be bound to the host it is for; the sandbox only ever sees a placeholder.
Teams
Organisations, projects, roles, an audit log and a spend cap per project.
Interfaces
A command-line tool, TypeScript and Python SDKs, and a REST API.

Who it is for

Companies building AI agents that need a fast, reliable computer for every task or every user.
Teams that evaluate agents and models often and need results they can trust and re-run.
Builders of reinforcement-learning environments who run rollouts at volume.
Engineering teams running coding agents on their own repositories: bug fixing, code review, dependency upgrades and agentic CI.

Common use cases

Give a coding agent its own computer with the project already set up
Run a benchmark suite such as SWE-bench, or a benchmark of your own
Run agent evals on every commit and compare models on identical environments
Generate reinforcement-learning rollouts and reward-model data
Review or fix every pull request with an agent
Land dependency upgrades and migrations across many repositories
Run AI-written or untrusted code for the users of an app, one sandbox per user
Keep long-running agents asleep between steps without paying for idle time
Re-run last month's eval exactly

What Promigence believes

The delay that matters in an agent loop is time to feedback: how long each edit, test and retry takes. Cold start is a small part of it.
A failed run should say whose fault it was. When the environment fails, that is the platform's failure: it is reported as such, and it is not billed when our side can show it was ours.
The cost of a run should be known and capped before it starts, not discovered afterwards.
An evaluation result is only worth citing if the environment behind it can be reproduced.
