Hi PH - today we're launching OpenComputer.

Deploy your agent as a function, get a computer for it.

What you can expect:

1. Write an agent as a TypeScript function. Deploy it. We run the loop, the sessions, streaming etc
2. Every session runs on a real Linux machine.
3. Your tools and MCP servers run on that machine - clone a repo, run ffmpeg, drive a browser, install anything.
4. Sessions are durable: can be steered mid-run, hibernate when idle, resume where they left off.
5. No model keys in your runtime. Bring your own or use our managed gateway.

Give it a shot and let us know what you think, we're very keen on feedback!

Comment highlights

Congratulations on the launch! Just curious, why TypeScript? Almost all AI is built with Python...
