About OpenComputer

OpenComputer is a revolutionary platform designed for deploying and managing persistent, cloud-based agents with the simplicity of serverless functions. Targeted at developers and AI specialists, it provides each agent with a dedicated Linux environment, essentially giving users a real, full-purpose machine that can run ffmpeg, chromium, git, or any custom software. Its durability features, such as hibernate and resume, allow agents to persist across sessions without losing state, making it ideal for long-running or resource-intensive tasks. Unlike traditional cloud setups built mainly for apps, OpenComputer is tailored for trillions of always-on agents, providing a secure environment where user keys never enter the runtime. This makes it a compelling choice for AI automation, continuous integration, or complex agent-based workflows, bridging the gap between cloud infrastructure and autonomous agents with ease and flexibility.
