Perplexity Launches SPACE Agent Sandbox
inductionheads · x · 2026-07-17
Perplexity has officially launched SPACE, a secure sandbox platform designed specifically for Agentic AI. It creates isolated environments for code, files, and long-running agent sessions, and has handled 100% of production traffic for Perplexity Computer since June.
Performance-wise, early tests show that running the sandbox on NVIDIA Vera CPUs boosts startup speeds by up to 1.9x. This effectively reduces latency and enhances parallelism, allowing agents to scale more efficiently.
