About E2B
E2B gives AI agents their own isolated machine to work in. It handles the sandbox layer so developers can focus on the agent itself.
What it does
E2B starts a separate cloud sandbox for each agent session. Inside it, an agent can run code, use a shell, work with files, open a browser and reach the network under rules you set. Sandboxes can be paused, resumed and forked, which helps when a long task needs to be saved and continued later. You can run them in E2B's own cloud or inside your AWS, GCP or Azure account.
Key features
- Isolated microVM for each agent session
- Start sandboxes from saved snapshots
- Pause and fork running sandboxes
- Shell, files, browser and network access
- Run in E2B cloud or your own cloud account
Who it's for
Teams building coding agents, data agents, computer use agents or evaluation pipelines. It also fits companies that need agent code execution to stay inside their own cloud.
Pricing and good to know
The runtime is open source under the Apache-2.0 licence, and the hosted service is offered through the company's own plans. Check the pricing page for current plans before you build on it. Because every session gets its own machine, plan for how many sandboxes you will run at once and how long each one stays up.
