Machine0 Offers Persistent GPU VMs for AI Agents via CLI, Billed by the Minute
bwm · hn · 2026-08-19
YC S26 startup machine0 launches a CLI tool designed for long-horizon AI agent computing. Users can provision persistent cloud VMs via machine0 new mybox, with configurations ranging from $0.013/hr to H200-class GPUs, billed per minute.
Key Features:
- Persistent Uptime: 99.99% availability suitable for agents running for hours or days.
- Security Isolation: Dedicated environments prevent credential leaks via prompt injection on local machines.
- State Management: Supports suspend, snapshot, and resume for saving workflows or cloning fleets.
- Configuration: Profiles inject MCP connections, prompts, and env vars for granular permission control.
- Self-Service: Agents can manage resources directly via CLI or MCP.
