Give your agent a computer that stays on

Your laptop is for you. The agent needs a desk that keeps running when you close the lid.

A laptop open on a wooden desk in morning light

You ask an agent to file the receipts, clean the inbox, or finish a report. Then you shut the laptop to go eat. The work dies with the lid.

That stall is the tax you pay for sharing one machine. The agent has nowhere else to sit.

A desk that outlasts your session

Launch a computer in the dashboard. Name it. Pick US or EU. It is ready in under a minute.

That computer is a real Linux desktop in the cloud. It stays on while you sleep. Your agent works there, on its own screen.

Send the work there

Open the computer. Copy the setup prompt. Paste it into Claude, Codex, Hermes, or OpenClaw once. That prompt is the text that adds our plug-in.

Then say “do this on your own computer.” Watch the live screen. Take over when a login or a 2FA code appears.

You get your laptop back. The agent keeps the desk.
