Cua
Give every agent a cloud desktop

Cua is a cloud desktop platform designed specifically for AI agents, providing sandboxed environments across Linux, Windows, macOS, and Android. It offers agent runtimes, evaluation benchmarks, and training data tooling for computer-use agents built with models like Claude, Gemini, and others. Developers can define custom environments, snapshot them, and fork into parallel runs for testing and reinforcement learning pipelines.
Cua provides hot-start cloud sandboxes with a display, browser, and root access, along with SDKs for agent runtimes, screenshot/click/shell control, and an eval benchmark to test agents on real desktop tasks.
