Reviewer scorecard
“150ms cold starts for sandboxed code execution. Essential for AI agents that need to run untrusted code safely.”
“Docker builds that take 10 minutes in CI complete in 30 seconds on Depot. The speed improvement is dramatic.”
“AI agents running code need sandboxing. E2B's micro-VMs are purpose-built for this use case.”
“If Docker builds are your CI bottleneck, Depot eliminates it. Drop-in replacement with massive time savings.”
“Safe code execution for AI agents is critical infrastructure. E2B is building the sandbox layer that every agent needs.”
“Remote build infrastructure will become standard. Local or CI builds on underpowered machines make no sense.”
