Agentic Index
Daytona vs Unikraft (2026)
Both give agents somewhere safe to run generated code, and they isolate differently.
Daytona is open source infrastructure spinning up secure isolated sandboxes in under ninety milliseconds, usage based with 200 dollars of free compute, documenting 7.5 of 14. Unikraft runs agent sandboxes and headless browsers as strongly isolated microVMs with instant boot, checkpoint and fork, and scale to zero, on tiered public plans, at 8. The microVM boundary is a stronger isolation guarantee than a container; checkpoint and fork is the capability container based sandboxes cannot match.
Choose Daytona if
- Open source is a requirement and you want to read what is isolating the code.
- Free compute to start means you can prove the pattern before committing.
- Sub hundred millisecond sandbox creation is the property your workload needs.
Choose Unikraft if
- MicroVM isolation is the security boundary your review requires, not container isolation.
- Checkpoint and fork lets you branch agent state, which containers cannot do.
- Headless browsers alongside code sandboxes are part of the same requirement.
