Compare Sandbox Providers by Rank and Uptime

Pick where your agents run using independent checks we run every minute, published free.

You can now compare every sandbox provider we benchmark by its weekly rank and its measured uptime, side by side, in our public provider directory. It's for builders choosing where their agents, sandboxes and CI jobs run.

Speed results tell you how fast a provider is on a good day. They don't tell you whether a sandbox will come up when your agent asks for one. Now you get both numbers in the same row.

Check sandbox uptime measured every minute

Sandbox Provider Reliability checks each provider every minute. We start a fresh sandbox, run a small workload in it, and shut it down. Uptime is the share of those checks that passed, so it tells you how often you'd have gotten a working sandbox.

Each minute's check starts a fresh sandbox, runs a small workload and shuts it down, so a provider's uptime is simply the share of those checks that passed.

Each row shows how many days of checks sit behind its uptime, so you know how much history you're looking at. Every provider also has its own reliability page with its incidents and individual checks, so you can see exactly when something failed.

See where each provider ranks this week

The weekly rank shows how each provider did across all our sandbox benchmarks over the past week. A high rank means a provider did well on boot time, snapshots, filesystem performance and CI capabilities together.

This week E2B leads at 74.26, #1 of 33 ranked providers. Every provider's profile lists its score and rank on each benchmark, so you can check it's strong at the work you'll actually run.

Find a provider and start a sandbox on it

The directory covers 39 sandbox providers, plus storage, browser and AI gateway providers, so you can find the one you're considering by name.

When you've picked one, start a sandbox on it:

compute new e2b

You don't need a provider account to start. The CLI signs you in, you get $5 in free credit, and your own provider keys are optional.

Neutral, current data on which provider is fastest and most reliable is why we run these benchmarks.

Open the provider directory and find your next sandbox provider.
