Prized gives developers and coding agents an always-on cloud computer that feels local on your Mac.

Compute has been the bottleneck for agent teams. So we made machines forkable. One box can become hundreds of boxes in about a second. Here it is copying a running game of Doom, memory and all, into 32 clones.

Part founder, part barista? Hudson (@hudson_gri) of @UsePrized on going zero to one, why Brex was an easy call, and the espresso machine that sealed the deal.

Your agent's been ready to run a team. Now it has the computers for it.
Your agent can run 100 subagents. Your laptop can't. Tell your agent to use the Prized CLI and every subagent gets its own computer, an exact copy of your box, all running at once. Prized Sandboxes are available today.

"more agents than employees" sounds like a headcount prediction. it's an infrastructure prediction. every one of those agents needs a computer.

agents are running for hours, then days. laptops are designed around a human who leaves. this mismatch will define the next dev environment.

the next debate isn't which agent to use. it's where the agent is allowed to run.

asking a coding agent to "run overnight" on a laptop is like asking a plant to grow while you hold it.

I taught the fly brain to play Mario Kart. It beat the Dry Dry Ruins shroomless best known time while I slept. Told my agent to spin up parallel research agents and gpu boxes on @useprized and woke up to this. How far could this realistically go?

if your coding agent needs you to carry an open laptop across town, we should probably discuss who is working for whom.

Prized gives your agents a machine that never sleeps. Your agent stops depending on your laptop. It runs in the cloud, keeps its state, forks into copies for parallel attempts, and grows its memory as the work grows. $30 of free credit. prized.dev

12 days since launch. here's what we've shipped: windows and linux clients the cli updates itself a desktop in the browser on every box fork a box, templates, scheduled snapshots prompt the agent from anywhere, interrupt it exec and file moves without ssh your box from your phone, via chatgpt mount the box in finder idle auto-pause, 13 second resume environments with repos and secret files several boxes from one machine undo for deleted boxes teams: audit log, policies, scoped secrets $30 to start, no card.
