| Pricing model | – |
|---|---|
| Pricing The headline compute price as the provider states it. Sorting ranks prices stated per vCPU over time, converted to hourly. Other pricing models sort after, unranked. | – |
| Free while idle Whether a stopped, paused, or sleeping sandbox costs nothing. | – |
| Elastic Resources flex with what the sandbox actually uses, and the bill follows: yes when the provider bills on active or observed use, no when capacity is reserved or allocated and billed while it runs. | – |
| Memory snapshots Whether RAM state survives a pause and resume, not just disk. | – |
| Wake on request Whether a stopped sandbox wakes automatically on inbound traffic. | – |
| Start / resume Typical time from create or resume to running. Sorting ranks stated times, converted to seconds; claims with no figure sort after, unranked. | – |
| Max runtime The longest a sandbox may run. | – |
| Isolation The isolation technology between sandboxes. | – |
| GPUs Whether GPU instances are available for sandboxes. | – |
| Docker Whether Docker containers can run inside the sandbox. | – |
| SDKs | Python, JavaScript, TypeScript, Java, Kotlin, C#, Go |
