Persistent by default
Hardware-isolated Linux machines for your team and your agents, ready in <10ms. They cost nothing while they sleep.
Used for
Development workspaces
SSH back into your cloud dev box exactly as you left it.
Learn more
Coding agents
Agents get their own machine and pick up exactly where they stopped.
Learn more
Preview environments
A live copy of your stack for each pull request, with one link to review.
Learn more
CI runners
Stop paying your CI to reinstall the same things every run.
Learn more
Fork a machine, mid-run
Copy a running machine in under 200ms, with everything live:
- running processes
- databases
- files, memory and disk
Stop rebuilding the same environment. Share one across your team.
Save a machine with your app, data and tools already running. Every new machine starts from it, not from scratch.
Built for flexibility and control
boxd hands you the whole platform to configure, not a black box. Add checkpoints to your VMs and take snapshots to restore from, and give your organisation its own private domains, variables and secrets.
Configure your favorite integrations inside your private VMs and automate whatever you want.
One machine for every agent, branch and developer
Dev boxes, agents and PR previews all run on the same machine. Every one of them gets these tools.
Forks
Copy a running machine, disk and all, in under 200ms. The copy is a real machine, not a container on top of yours.
Snapshots
Freeze a machine and bring it back later in the state you left it, down to the running processes.
Checkpoints
Roll a machine back to exactly where it was. Memory and disk, restored in place — a save point on the machine you already have, not a new one.
Integrations
Connect GitHub, Linear or Slack once and every machine in the org has it. The MCP server installs straight into Claude Code, Codex or opencode.
Domains
Every machine gets an HTTPS subdomain. Point your own domain at it when you're ready.
Environment vars
Share secrets across machines, scoped to your org rather than pasted per box.
API keys
Drive all of it from the CLI, the API, or your CI job.
Yes. Give a machine an egress allowlist and it can only connect to the hosts you name. Forks inherit the allowlist, so copies of a locked-down machine stay locked down. Create a machine with `--isolated` and boxd leaves out the in-machine CLI, your integrations and your agent logins. To keep machines off the public internet, put your organization behind Tailscale.
The machine keeps running, so builds and agent runs carry on and your files and processes are there when you come back. After 4 hours with no traffic a machine hibernates and pays for disk only, then wakes with its processes intact. Every new account starts with €30 of free credits, and the full rate card is on the pricing page.
Yes. Machines come in 1 vCPU / 4 GiB, 2 vCPU / 8 GiB (the default) and 4 vCPU / 16 GiB, and you can pick any of them yourself. For 8 vCPU / 32 GiB or larger, email contact@boxd.sh. Resize an existing machine with `boxd machine resize <name> --vcpu 4 --memory 16G`, which restarts it.
On bare-metal servers in Germany, so your machines and their data stay in the EU. A US region is coming. If you need machines in your own datacenter, cloud or country, you can self-host boxd.
