We hit an annualized run rate of $120M in October. This year alone, we’re projected to add around $150M in net new revenue. This is an amazing milestone and a testament to the work of the @e2b team. I’m particularly excited about two things: 1/ This showcases how strong the tailwinds of AGL (Agent-Led Growth) can be. If you build a tool for agents and optimize your whole growth engine to serve them, you can see tremendous growth. This isn’t something you can just throw money at and buy. Agents don’t decide based on ads. You need a sophisticated growth engine that fine-tunes things like your AEO. I think this is what all future B2B devtool sales will look like. Increasingly, decisions about tool adoption will be made by agents, not humans. 2/ The use cases we’re serving. The majority of our revenue and usage comes from agents running in production. Not RL. When we started, we had two theses: (i) code is all you need—all agents will use code to complete tasks (which has turned out to be true); and (ii) sandboxes for agentic workloads will be a bigger market than sandboxes for RL workloads, but takeoff will be slower (still playing out). In the past 30 years, every company has become a software company. In the next 10 years, every company will have become an agent company. We’re building an infrastructure layer to power all these agents.

Introducing E2B Embed: it brings AI agent sandboxes directly into your product and run them on infrastructure you control. E2B Embed packages the full E2B stack on a single node, giving you the flexibility to deploy in your own environment or a customer’s. Open source under Apache 2.0, it supports Docker Compose, Terraform on GCP, and Kubernetes. All with the same E2B SDK, CLI, and API. youtube.com/watch?v=w-7eAIZC…

Why make an agent choose one way of solving a problem when it can explore them all? Catch our very own @mishushakov and @ondrej_sh at @aiDotEngineer on Thursday, September 24, as they show how agents can fork live machines to explore multiple paths in parallel- each with its own copy of the machine’s state, filesystem, and running processes.

🚀 Our open-source project has a new name: E2B Runtime. Behind every E2B stack there's a runtime. Cloud, enterprise, or embedded in your product. Same code, Apache-2.0. Old URL redirects. Something new is already in the tree. More soon. github.com/e2b-dev/runtime

Cursor x E2B Many of our customers use E2B in their internal development workflows. Some work in regulated industries where code and internal services can’t leave the company. For teams that need control over the execution environment, Cursor’s cloud agents can now use E2B as their machine. With Self-Hosted Machines, @cursor_ai handles the agent loop while @e2b runs the code. Teams can give agents bigger machines and start them from custom E2B templates, so their Cursor workloads boot straight into an environment with internal dependencies already in place. Try it: docs.e2b.dev/agents/cursor

3 new integrations with E2B just dropped: Eve, Flue, and Amp. Use them with @E2B to give your agents persistent, fully customizable computers built for stateful code execution. See how you can safely migrate an entire codebase or run your product development on autopilot👇

Going from prompt to an app you can serve to users is magical. It's also very hard to pull off at a scale of 1M+ users. Anything's Marcus Lowe and his team has been able to build something incredible in a very short amount of time. E2B has been a part of that: absorbing the concurrency spikes that come with virality, keeping apps warm so builders can resume editing the second they log back in, and serving the finished apps once they ship them. "I still don't know how you guys do that" - my favorite quote from this case study. Shout-out to both team @anything and @e2b for building something out of this world.

Over 120 Y Combinator companies are building on E2B. 1 in 10 of the newly launched YC S'26 batch is already on board. Some of the most interesting and fastest growing YC startups are powered by E2B. We want to see more success in the ecosystem, so we put together the founders of Lark, Paper Instruments, Replicas, 21st, and Runtime for an evening of sharing how they're building AI in production. And, the food will be awesome (sushi and tapas!). If you're building agentic products (or just want to steal some great ideas over good food), come by. Registration link is in the thread.

We’re the only major open-source agentic sandbox platform and the only widely used sandbox platform licensed under Apache 2.0. Like LLMs, sandboxes are a critical part of AI infrastructure. Any smart business will want to own this infrastructure in-house to protect its IP. If you care about AI sovereignty within your company, @e2b should be on your shortlist.

"The point is that attention to quality only works when it’s a habit, and as with any habit, it’s easy to lose momentum if you miss a rep." - @artman can confirm..once you train yourself, you start noticing a lot of details

Filesystem-only snapshots are now available on E2B. Filesystem-only snapshots skip capturing memory and process state, making them quicker to create and restore while using less storage than full snapshots. Use them when you only care about the data on disk and don’t need running processes restored. For example, to persist a workspace between sessions or save build and scratch state without restoring running processes. Docs in the thread.
