Agents are becoming the application.

Today, people build an app and the app calls an agent to do a task. The app is the product, the agent is a feature. That's sandbox-as-tool territory.

We think the agent is the product. Someone builds a support agent, a research agent, a coding agent—that agent needs to live somewhere, have a URL, and run. Stop treating it like a function call. Deploy it like a service.

And services need computers, not sandboxes.

Every OpenComputer is a real VM. Not a microVM, not a container. A full Linux machine with root access. It hibernates when idle and wakes when you need it. No timeouts, no snapshots to manage. Your computer is just there.

Secrets live in a vault. Checkpoint anytime. Break something, roll back in a second.
