tinybox

Persistent Linux that doesn't get in your way.

SSH into a real VM. Snapshotted every minute. Stop without losing the disk. APAC-first.

curl -fsSL https://tinybox-control-plane.ramasamy-vignesh.workers.dev/install | sh

Built for builders

CLI-first. Create, SSH, stop, resume — humans and agents alike.

Ubuntu with Docker, languages, and common tools already baked in.

Real KVM VMs — not a container that evaporates when you look away.

Per-second while running. Stopped boxes are free. Seconds carry forward.

Starter

$20/mo

2,000,000 default-equivalent seconds. small (0.5×) and default (1×). Unused balance never resets.

Get started

Am I billed when a box is stopped?

No. Stop writes a verified snapshot and pauses billing. Resume in seconds.

What is abort-stop?

A stop that cannot snapshot never succeeds — so you never lose the disk to a silent failure.

Where do boxes run?

APAC-first (Singapore staging). Dedicated public IPs are on the roadmap.
