E2B is open-source infrastructure that lets AI agents run generated code inside secure, isolated cloud sandboxes (Linux VMs) via Python and JavaScript SDKs. It includes a code interpreter SDK, custom sandbox templates, desktop sandboxes, and self-hostable infrastructure.

Use cases

  • run AI-generated code safely in a sandbox
  • give my LLM agent a code execution tool
  • execute Python code from an AI assistant
  • build a code interpreter for my chatbot
  • self-host sandboxed code execution for agents
  • run untrusted code in an isolated VM
  • let agents browse and control a virtual desktop

When to choose

  • you need secure, on-demand code execution environments for AI agents
  • you want SDKs in Python or TypeScript with cloud or self-hosted deployment
  • you need custom sandbox templates or desktop sandboxes for computer-use agents

When to avoid

  • you only need local code execution without isolation
  • you want a fully free managed service without an API key or account
  • your workload is not related to running agent or user-supplied code
