Daytona is a secure and elastic infrastructure runtime for AI-generated code execution and agent workflows. Our open-source platform provides sandboxes, full composable computers with complete isolation, a dedicated kernel, filesystem, network stack, and allocated vCPU, RAM, and disk.

Sandboxes are the core component of the Daytona platform, spinning up in under 90ms from code to execution and running any code in Python, TypeScript, and JavaScript. Built on OCI/Docker compatibility, massive parallelization, and unlimited persistence, sandboxes deliver consistent, predictable environments for agent workflows.

Agents and developers interact with sandboxes programmatically using the Daytona SDKs, API, and CLI. Operations span sandbox lifecycle management, filesystem operations, process and code execution, and runtime configuration through base images, packages, and tooling. Our stateful environment snapshots enable persistent agent operations across sessions, making Daytona the ideal foundation for AI agent architectures.

Features

Daytona provides an extensive set of features and tools for interacting with sandboxes.

  • Platform: governance and operational controls for organizations standardizing on Daytona
  • Sandboxes: isolated full composable computers that execute workloads and retain state
  • Agent tools: programmatic capabilities for application code, agents, and integrations
  • Human tools: interfaces and remote sessions for interacting with sandboxes
  • System tools: platform-level hooks and controls for lifecycle events and network access
