InstaVM
A cloud built for agents: isolated, observable, and controlled.

InstaVM is a cloud execution platform designed specifically for AI agents, providing hardware-isolated Firecracker microVMs with sub-200ms cold boot times. It offers features like egress controls, proxy-injected secrets, persistent volumes, checkpointing, and full observability for every agent run. Developers can manage VMs via SSH, REST API, Python or TypeScript SDKs, and deploy directly from AI coding tools like Claude Code or Codex.
InstaVM provisions Firecracker microVMs per agent run via a REST API or SSH interface, injecting secrets via proxy, enforcing egress rules, and capturing full runtime logs and network traces for every execution.
