boat is the best sandbox provider

because wdym with a 2c 4gb VM at $0.000005/s you can just install nothing and already open a virtual desktop, chrome, run wine, android emulators, host stuff and get https URLs, run major agent harnesses, get 'gh' logged in, get docker inside

we just reached 1M ARR with boat.dev

it was our best case scenario for the entire YC batch, yet it took only 2/3rd of it to happen

slowly then all at once, we grew from 0 to 1M ARR in 22 months over 6 pivots:

0 -> $10k ARR in 16m, 5 pivots
$10k -> $100k ARR in 4m, 1 pivot
$100k -> $200k ARR in 1m
$200k -> $1M ARR in 1m

we already got way more in rev run rate btw, subscriptions are just a fraction of our total revenue

now road to $100M!

conductor cloud is shutting down on Nov the 13th in just 8 days!

lots of you will now go on to build your own cloud software factory

there is no better cloud sandbox/VM provider than boat.dev for that:

> inexpensive (0.036/h for 4c 8gb)
> super high single core perf CPU
> devtools + desktop pre-installed
> docker inside preinstalled
> can run an android emulator
> harnesses controllable from outside
> supports claude / codex sub
> secrets management
> agents & api secrets proxying
> github integration + ci support
> full VM, super on top of CVEs

we wrote a guide you can feed your agent, to one-shot the entire factory using our CLI and APIs

boat.dev/blog/software-…

and we benchmarked to show boat is the least expensive and most convenient sandbox for software factories:
