  • No plans: the free tier (5 concurrent sandboxes, 1-hour sessions, 2 vCPU / 4 GiB per sandbox) becomes the paid tier (100 concurrent, up to 8 vCPU / 8 GiB) once the account balance is above $0.
  • Paid-tier session length conflicts between the quota docs (3 hours) and the product page (24 hours); the record keeps the free-tier value.
  • New users get $100 in promotional credits after an account setup survey, no card required; credits may have a validity period.
  • Memory is configured in 512 MiB steps at 0.5 to 4 GiB per vCPU; vCPU must be a whole number.
  • Running sandboxes include 20 GB of ephemeral storage at no charge. Paused sandboxes keep filesystem and memory and are not billed for compute.
  • Claude Code and Codex come preinstalled in the `claude-code` and `codex` templates.
  • "Under 200ms on average" start time is a vendor claim from the product page.
