# boat
> Product home for boat: persistent Linux VM sandboxes for AI agents.
boat gives AI agents persistent Linux (Ubuntu) VMs: SSH and SCP access, Docker inside the VM, a dedicated IPv6 or IPv4 per machine, a 60fps virtual desktop, and fast disk-level fork from a snapshot. Sandbox compute is billed per second and stops billing when stopped. boat offers a 7-day free trial (25 compute hours), then plans from $20/mo.
## Docs
- [Docs index](https://docs.boat.dev/llms.txt): every docs page, each fetchable as markdown
- [API reference](https://docs.boat.dev/api/v1): human-readable API guide
- [SDKs](https://docs.boat.dev/sdks/overview): Python and TypeScript clients
## Pages
- [Home](https://boat.dev/): product overview, install commands, and pricing
- [Compare](https://boat.dev/compare): boat compared with E2B, Daytona, Modal, and other sandbox providers
- [Blog](https://boat.dev/blog): benchmarks and infrastructure notes
- [boat vs E2B: faster full VMs with no 24-hour session cap](https://boat.dev/compare/boat-vs-e2b): boat vs E2B: full VMs on dedicated Ryzen 9 hosts that ran a CPU benchmark about twice as fast, with no session cap, nested virtualization and agents built in.
- [boat vs Daytona: a full VM for every sandbox](https://boat.dev/compare/boat-vs-daytona): boat gives every sandbox its own VM. Daytona starts with containers and adds VM, Windows and GPU classes. Compare features, CPU speed, limits and real bills.
- [boat vs Modal: persistent VMs vs serverless sandboxes](https://boat.dev/compare/boat-vs-modal): boat vs Modal Sandboxes: full VMs that stop, resume and fork with their disk, versus gVisor containers with GPUs, global regions and 24-hour sessions.
- [boat vs Vercel Sandbox: all-day agent VMs with a desktop](https://boat.dev/compare/boat-vs-vercel-sandbox): boat vs Vercel Sandbox compared: session length, desktop and browser, agent APIs, CPU speed, regions, egress rules, and what five real workloads cost a month.
- [boat vs Blaxel: full Linux VMs vs instant-resume microVMs](https://boat.dev/compare/boat-vs-blaxel): boat gives each agent a full Linux VM with KVM, systemd, SSH and a real disk. Blaxel runs Firecracker microVMs that sleep in seconds and wake in 25 ms.
- [boat vs Runloop: faster CPUs and a fuller Linux machine](https://boat.dev/compare/boat-vs-runloop): boat and Runloop both run AI agents in VMs. Compare CPU speed, nested virtualization, saved files, network rules, deploys to your own cloud, and fleet costs.
- [boat vs Tensorlake: full VMs vs fast-snapshot microVMs](https://boat.dev/compare/boat-vs-tensorlake): Compare boat and Tensorlake Sandboxes: full VMs with nested virtualization and built-in agents versus Firecracker microVMs with memory snapshots and BYOC.
- [boat vs exe.dev: desktop, snapshots and an agent API](https://boat.dev/compare/boat-vs-exe-dev): boat and exe.dev both give agents full Linux VMs. Compare desktops, snapshots, agent APIs, regions, Docker images, limits and bills for five real workloads
