CreateOS Sandbox vs Intuned
Intuned is for teams that want durable scraping or RPA jobs maintained over time: its AI agent writes the automation code, and the platform schedules, retries and keeps logins valid. CreateOS Sandbox is for teams that bring their own agent and need a VM where any code runs, with egress rules and no runtime cap.
Pricing at a Glance
CreateOS rates verified 17 October 2026. Intuned pricing as published on 17 October 2026. Rates billed per GB rather than per GiB, or as bundled sizes, are quoted as published rather than converted.
CreateOS Sandbox
- Compute
- $0.0362 /vCPU-hr
- Memory
- $0.0116 /GiB-hr
Intuned
Free includes 3 compute hours, Developer costs $25/month with 100 hours then $0.12/compute hour, and Startup $120/month with 500 hours then $0.10/compute hour; Large and X-Large machines cost extra, as of 17 October 2026.
Where CreateOS Sandbox Fits Better
What CreateOS Sandbox brings to this matchup, with a plain note on where Intuned has the edge.
Any language or tool runs, not only automation projects in Intuned's format.
Published shapes from 1 vCPU / 1 GB up to 8 vCPU / 16 GB; Intuned does not publish its machine sizes.
Outbound rules per sandbox by host, IP or CIDR, applied live without a restart.
Where Intuned is strong
Its AI agent writes and maintains the automation code, while the platform handles scheduling, retries and validated login sessions around it.
Which to Pick
Pick CreateOS Sandbox if
- You already have an agent and need a place to execute its code.
- You need machine sizes and isolation details before you buy.
- Jobs run for hours and you do not want to manage timeout extensions.
Pick Intuned if
- You want scrapers or RPA built and kept working for you.
- You need scheduled jobs with AuthSessions checked before each run.
- Included compute hours, 100 on Developer or 500 on Startup, suit your volume.
Head-to-Head Comparison
Every dimension side by side, checked on 17 October 2026 against each vendor's own docs and pricing pages. "Not published" means we could not find it on the vendor's pages, not that the feature is missing.
| Dimension | CreateOS Sandbox | Intuned |
|---|---|---|
| What you get (browser vs full Linux machine) | Full Linux micro-VM; the desktop:1 image adds an XFCE desktop, Google Chrome and a computer-use API | Platform that runs Intuned automation projects as API runs and scheduled jobs |
| Isolation | Firecracker micro-VM with its own guest kernel, root filesystem and network identity | Not published |
| Session length | No lifetime cap; optional idle auto-pause from 60 s to 24 h, off by default | Default 10-minute API timeout, extendable via extendTimeout; maximum not published |
| Run arbitrary code | Yes: exec, shell, files and managed processes; devbox:1 ships Python 3.12, Node.js 24, Go, Rust and Docker | Executes Intuned automation projects; arbitrary code environment not published |
| Outbound network | Open with no rules; deny-by-default once any host, IP, CIDR or wildcard rule exists, enforced on the host outside the VM | Not published |
| Billing | Per second: $0.03616363/vCPU-hr, $0.01159025/GiB-hr, storage $0.0001584/GB-hr; no per-GB egress price, 50 GiB bandwidth budget per sandbox | Free (3 compute hours); Developer $25/mo (100 h, then $0.12/h); Startup $120/mo (500 h, then $0.10/h); larger machines extra |
| Pause and resume | Pause saves disk, memory and CPU state; vCPU stops billing, memory and storage still bill | AuthSessions are validated before runs, reused and recreated when expired; pause not published |
| Interfaces | SDKs in TypeScript, Go, Python, Rust, C# and Java (all but TypeScript pre-1.0), CLI, MCP server, REST API | TypeScript and Python SDKs, CLI with local development |
Common Questions
Who writes the automation code on Intuned?
Either you or Intuned's AI agent; the platform then deploys, schedules and retries it and maintains login sessions. On CreateOS Sandbox your own agent writes and runs code inside a micro-VM, and scheduling and retries stay in your code.
How does Intuned charge for compute?
By compute hour on top of a monthly plan: 3 free hours, then $0.12 per hour on Developer or $0.10 on Startup, with Large and X-Large machines adding up to $0.48 per hour. CreateOS bills vCPU, memory and storage per second.
Can I see Intuned's machine sizes before signing up?
Not exactly. Intuned names Standard, Large and X-Large machine tiers but does not publish their CPU or memory. CreateOS lists every shape, from 1 vCPU / 1 GB on Free to 8 vCPU / 16 GB on Enterprise.
