The cloud agents run on.
sys9 builds infrastructure for a world of agents. Each agent gets a complete computer, a durable workspace, its own database, and continuity between turns. Underneath, the platform shares compute and storage. Our whole philosophy fits on one line: private to the agent, shared underneath.
Give every agent a complete, continuous environment without reserving a machine for it.
Agents are already infrastructure users: they create databases, provision sandboxes, and wire applications on a person’s behalf. They work in bursts, sleep for hours, and multiply faster than the people who own them. Cloud infrastructure was designed for a small number of long-lived instances with human operators. sys9 is designed for millions of small, elastic environments that are mostly quiet and always able to wake again.
Three principles, applied everywhere.
The environment is the interface
A whole environment — files, processes, network, and a database under one identity — gives an agent room to improvise with the shell, Git, and SQL it already knows. We expose predictable primitives an agent can inspect, combine, and recover from, rather than a chat box on a cloud product.
Dedicated in meaning, shared in implementation
Each agent sees a complete runtime, its own data, and continuity across turns. The platform shares compute, storage, and capacity. Cost is not an optimization added later; it shapes the architecture, so state and identity are separated from instances.
Small, composable services
Each service does one job, small and focused — less context for the agent to carry, fewer
tokens to spend, and freedom to compose. Opt into exactly the pieces you need —
run9, drive9, db9, task9 — and leave the rest.
Builders of agent systems.
Agent developers
People building coding agents, multi-agent teams, and AI pipelines who need real compute, a durable workspace, a database, and coordination.
Agent-service and SaaS teams
Teams shipping per-tenant AI or hosting fleets of agents who need isolation and cost control without building the substrate from scratch.
The agents themselves
Agents provision and compose services within the credentials and permissions you provide. Product-specific setup makes those boundaries explicit.
Three primitives, one runtime, composable services.
The brand is sys9. Use sys9 to install and launch supported tools on demand; mem9 has its own setup guides and chord9 has its own workbench.
run9 compute, drive9 filesystem, and db9 database — a computer, a Linux workspace, and PostgreSQL, delivered with fast provisioning, logical isolation, and shared physical resources.
smith9 — agents wake on a message, work in a persistent workspace on run9, and release their sandbox between Turns.
Private to the agent. Shared underneath.
