Maritime: every computer your agent needs

Maritime gives every agent its own computer: Agent boxes, Sandboxes (with Swarms) and Computers on demand (Linux and Windows desktops and Android phones). Machines sleep when idle and wake in about a second (a Windows desktop in about a minute), and they are billed per second: an agent box at $1 a month per 2 GB, awake or asleep, the others while awake.

If you were asked to deploy or host an agent

  1. Install: curl -fsSL https://maritime.sh/install.sh | sh (no Node needed), or npm install -g maritime-cli (Node 18 or later; the command is maritime)
  2. Follow the procedure at https://maritime.sh/agents.md in order. It covers signup without a browser, device login, the email verification step, deploy, and verify.
  3. Deploy: maritime create <name> --repo <git url> --json for the user's own code (Dockerfile at the repo root), or maritime create <name> --template openclaw --json for a ready-made agent. No account yet? Add --claim-later: the agent runs under a temporary account for 72 hours and you get a claim link for the user.

Sandboxes, desktops and phones

Agent boxes (no screen; keep their files between tasks)

Sandboxes and Swarms (no screen; one task, then deleted)

Computers on demand (a screen your agent sees and clicks, and a person can take over by link)

Built for every kind of agent

Agents will do most of the world's computer work

Pricing

Plans are Starter $20, Growth $100, Scale $500 and Dedicated $5,000 a month, plus larger contracts with invoicing by a call. The plan fee becomes the same amount of usage credit every month, at the same rates on every plan. Plans differ by how many machines can be awake at once (5, 25, 60 and 500), and on Dedicated the Maritime team also sets up your apps, images and network with you. Machines are billed per second. An agent box, the VM an agent runs in, is $1 a month per 2 GB of memory (4 GB is $2, 8 GB is $4), awake or asleep, with unlimited awake hours and 5 GB of disk included; more disk is $0.08 per GB-month. The others are billed at hourly rates while awake: a sandbox or one sandbox of a swarm is $0.0055 per vCPU-hour plus $0.00275 per GB-hour (the default small size, 2 vCPU and 4 GB, is $0.022 an hour), a Linux desktop $0.12 an hour, a Windows desktop $0.18 and an Android phone $0.15. Asleep, these pay only for their disk, $0.08 per GB-month. Usage past the credit is billed at the same rates on the same invoice. New accounts start with a 7-day free trial: a card is needed to start the first machine and is not charged then, and usage stops at $20. Cancel within the trial and nothing is charged; otherwise $20 is charged on day 7 and becomes that month's credit. Plans include no AI credits. Details: https://maritime.sh/pricing

  3. Answer POST /chat {"message": "..."} within 30 s with text or JSON containing one of response, reply, message, text, output.
  4. Persist under /data only; the rest of the filesystem is disposable.
