Maritime gives AI agents their own cloud computers: persistent workspaces, disposable sandboxes, Linux and Windows desktops, and Android phones. Agents can run code, use browsers, and work in apps without APIs, with a human able to take over when needed. Whether you’re building a personal assistant or running thousands of tasks in parallel, Maritime handles the computers so you can focus on what your agent does.
Hi hackers! I'm Maria, cofounder of Maritime (YC F26). Before Maritime, I researched AI agents at MIT.
Agents need different computers for different jobs: a throwaway sandbox for generated code, a workspace that’s still there next week, hundreds of clean machines for an eval, or a desktop for an app with no API.
Sometimes they need Windows or a phone.
We built Maritime to put all of these behind one API, on one bill. You can host any kind of agent and customize its environment with the software and tools it needs.
Sandboxes start at $0.011/hour for 1 vCPU and 2 GB of memory. Linux desktops are $0.12/hour, Windows desktops are $0.18/hour with the licence included, and Android phones are $0.15/hour. All are billed per second while running.
There’s a 7-day free trial with up to $20 of usage.
What are you building, and what kind of computer does your agent need?
Per-second billing for sandboxes makes sense. What about the persistent workspaces though? If one sits idle for a week, is there a storage charge, or does it only bill while running? That's the number I'd want before leaving agents parked.
Human takeover sounds useful. When control returns to the agent, how does it learn what the person changed?
Variable agent workloads make billing complex - pay-as-you-go is tempting but unpredictable costs kill budgeting. How do you handle reservation optimization vs overprovisioning risk? That's the infrastructure moat.
For the Android phones - can an agent install its own apps on them, or do they come as fixed images?
Disposable sandboxes and persistent workspaces solve different problems. Making that choice explicit when a job starts would help avoid discovering later that a file needed for the next run is gone.

Who hunted Maritime?
Maritime was hunted by Maria Gorskikh. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community. See the full all-time top hunters leaderboard to discover who is shaping the Product Hunt ecosystem.
