Inferable - Pros & Cons
Pros
- ✓Durability is useful when workflows outlive a single HTTP request
- ✓Approval gates help contain consequential tool actions
- ✓Self-hosting offers more infrastructure and data control
Cons
- ✗Operating a self-hosted control plane adds engineering burden
- ✗Function permissions and idempotency require careful application design
- ✗Hosted pricing and the current MCP implementation require manual verification
E2B - Pros & Cons
Pros
- ✓Strong isolation via Firecracker — safe enough for fully LLM-generated code
- ✓150ms cold-start is fast enough for interactive chat-style agents
- ✓Drop-in ChatGPT-style Code Interpreter SDK with persistent Jupyter kernels
- ✓Desktop sandbox makes browser-use and computer-use agents practical
- ✓Production-proven (Perplexity, Hugging Face) and well-instrumented
Cons
- ✗Per-hour pricing can balloon for long-running autonomous agents
- ✗Pro tier only includes 20 hours/mo — most teams burn through it
- ✗Smaller per-sandbox resource limits than running on your own GPU box
- ✗No GPU access on standard sandboxes (use Modal or RunPod for that)
