Cloud devboxes for coding agents, on computers you already own

Amika slices computers you already own into isolated devbox VMs for coding agents, and lets you reach them and their agents from anywhere. Each devbox is an Amika rig: a VM tuned for coding agents, with your repos, credentials, and services already in place.
  • Run on your own machines. Add a Mac Mini, a desktop, or EC2 in your VPC, and run several isolated rigs on each one. If you’d rather not run hardware, Amika hosts rigs too.
  • Run on your own cloud accounts. Unify your existing cloud accounts (AWS, GCP, etc.) and sandbox providers (Daytona, E2B, etc.) and manage VMs across all of them.
  • Bring any agent. Use Codex, Claude, OpenCode, Pi, or your own agent with existing subscriptions and API keys.
  • Control from anywhere. Use chat apps, the web UI, API, CLI, SSH, or your editor or ADE.

What can an Amika rig do?

On a rig, you can
  • run 1 or more agents simultaneously
  • expose the HTTPS URLs of the apps your agent is working on
  • let rigs and their agents communicate with each other
  • programmatically control the rig and its agents
  • connect to the rig from tools like the Codex app, Cursor, cmux, and Herdr
Each rig can be short-lived or persistent, depending on whether you want it to disappear when your PR is done, or whether you want to keep it around more permanently. Amika automatically wires your Git repos and agent configs and credentials into each rig.

What can you use Amika for?

Since Amika runs isolated VMs on your machines or in its cloud, and then gives you networking, agent messaging, and chat UIs, you can use it in many ways. Some examples:
  • give your agents a cloud machine that keeps running even when you close your own laptop
  • give engineers devboxes that are pre-configured with your tech stack
  • build managed agents that you control via API to automate work in the background
  • plug into your GitHub CI to not only run unit tests, but auto-fix failures
  • talk with agents from other tools like Slack and Linear
You can use Amika for anything where you need isolated VMs and control over the VMs, their agents, and their file contents or git repos.
