Run coding agents and shared development environments from chat tools, APIs and your own infrastructure.
Amika provides shared workstations and execution environments for coding agents and the people working with them. Teams define a sandbox with the software, services and source code needed for a task, then use that environment as a developer workstation, an interactive background agent or a programmatically controlled workflow.
Sandbox configuration lives in a repository, covering the base image, supporting services, data and agent setup. This lets a team reuse a consistent environment across developers and agent runs. SSH access, VPN connectivity and exposed service URLs support hands-on development and inspection of running applications. Snapshots preserve environment state so work can resume without rebuilding the setup each time.
Amika supports different agent harnesses and model choices, including Claude Code, Codex and OpenCode. The platform can run on its managed infrastructure, a customer's cloud or compatible customer-owned machines. Model usage is paid through the user's own provider keys rather than bundled into a single model-specific plan.
Users can start agent tasks through tools such as Slack, Linear, GitHub, the command line or the web interface. Multiple teammates can follow the same session, redirect the work or take over when necessary. APIs and SDKs support event-driven workflows, including sequences that run tests before preparing a pull request.
Session records include transcripts, tool calls and token costs, supporting later inspection. Teams can define checks and human review points around their own development process rather than treat a completed agent response as sufficient evidence that a change works.
The free plan provides limited sandbox resources, while paid plans expand concurrency, collaboration and stored sessions. Infrastructure consumption and model-provider charges remain part of the overall cost. Amika is most useful when a team wants repeatable agent environments and collaboration around executable development work.
A typical team workflow can connect a task to a configured sandbox, let the agent implement a change and then require automated checks before a pull request is prepared. The environment contains the actual project tools, so the agent can run the same tests used by a developer. A teammate can inspect the session and its evidence before accepting the change, keeping the generated work connected to the organisation's existing development process.
