New York-based startup enables AI agents to code autonomously in secure environments, addressing fundamental limitations in current AI coding tools
NEW YORK, Oct. 31, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Daytona, a leader in development environment management, announced its OpenHands demo on agent-agnostic middleware infrastructure today, addressing fundamental limitations in current AI coding tools. This solution enables AI coding agents to operate in parallel sandboxed environments, marking a paradigm shift from traditional file-scoped AI assistance to true autonomous development capabilities.

“Current AI coding assistants are constrained by local environments and lack of output access, leading to inconsistent experiences, compute limitations, and security concerns,” said Ivan Burazin, CEO of Daytona. “Our infrastructure allows AI agents to dynamically spin up unlimited workspace replicas, test multiple solutions simultaneously, and deliver fully tested code outcomes – capabilities that were previously impossible.”
This technology represents a step toward democratizing software development,” explains Burazin. “What was once complex and risky is now simple and secure, making AI-powered software development accessible to everyone, regardless of their technical background and security restrictions.”
The platform launched with OpenHands integration first, demonstrating how AI agents can leverage proper infrastructure support to perform complex development tasks. OpenHands is one of several popular open-source AI coding agents that help developers write software through natural language commands.
“This is the future of AI-assisted development,” added Burazin. “Instead of theoretical suggestions, AI agents can now independently experiment, iterate, and solve complex coding challenges in real-time, delivering practical, tested solutions seamlessly.”
The proof of concept is available immediately through openhands.daytona.io, with no waitlist or complex setup required. As part of its commitment to advancing AI development standards, Daytona is actively seeking collaboration with the developer community to help shape the future of AI agent infrastructure.
“We believe that AI will automate the majority of programming tasks in the future,” states Burazin. “Our role is to ensure this transition happens securely and efficiently. By providing the necessary infrastructure today, we’re paving the way for a future where AI and human developers can collaborate seamlessly and safely.”
