Source on each value

Isolation Isolation technology the vendor states for each sandbox.: Firecracker microVM (source: Hopx homepage)
Other isolation options Alternative runtimes the vendor offers besides the default (e.g. VM runtime, gVisor for GPU).: Not published
Deployment Managed cloud service, self-hosted software, or both.: managed (source: Hopx Pricing)
Billing basis What the meter counts: wall-clock allocated resources, active CPU only, requests/plan quota, session-hours, or free software.: wall clock (source: Hopx Pricing)
vCPU price $/vCPU-hr Published on-demand CPU rate normalised to USD per vCPU-hour (per-second rates multiplied by 3,600; per-core rates divided by vCPUs per core where the vendor defines it). Lowest public tier, default region.: $0.0504 (source: Hopx Pricing)
Memory price $/GiB-hr Published memory rate normalised to USD per GiB-hour (GB treated as GiB where the vendor does not distinguish). 0 means the vendor states memory is free.: $0.0162 (source: Hopx Pricing)
Sandbox from $/sandbox-hr Smallest published per-sandbox hourly price, where the vendor publishes one.: Not published
Paid plan from $/mo Cheapest paid platform plan fee (before usage).: Not published
Free tier A free plan, free monthly allowance or sign-up credit exists.: Yes (source: Hopx Pricing)
Free tier detail What the free tier or credit includes, as published.: $200 free credits, no credit card. (source: Hopx Pricing)
Cold start ms Vendor-published create/boot time in milliseconds. Only filled when the vendor publishes a number; see startup_claim for context (percentile, conditions).: 100 (source: Hopx Pricing)
Resume time ms Vendor-published resume-from-pause/standby/snapshot time in milliseconds.: Not published
Startup claim The vendor's startup/resume wording with conditions, quoted or closely paraphrased.: microVMs "spin up in ~100ms" (source: Hopx Pricing)
Max session length Longest single sandbox session by plan, as published.: No execution time limit ("hours, days, or weeks") (source: Hopx homepage)
Persistence / snapshots Filesystem state can be kept between runs (snapshots, persistent disks, volumes).: Yes (source: Hopx homepage)
Pause / resume A sandbox can be paused, suspended, hibernated or put in standby and resumed later.: Not published
Memory state kept Pause/hibernate preserves running memory state, not only the filesystem.: Not published
Fork / branch A running or snapshotted sandbox can be cloned into new sandboxes.: Not published
GPU GPU sandboxes are offered.: Not published
Self-host Can run on your own hardware or cluster (open source or licensed).: Not published

Open source Core sandbox runtime is published under an open-source licence.: Not published
Licence Open-source licence of the runtime, if any.: Not published
SDKs / languages Official SDK languages (or supported execution languages where noted).: Python, JavaScript; MCP server (source: Hopx homepage)
Regions Published regions or region count.: Not published
Max vCPU per sandbox vCPU Largest published vCPU count per sandbox on any self-serve or enterprise plan.: Not published
Max memory per sandbox GiB Largest published memory per sandbox.: Not published
Concurrency Published concurrent sandbox limits by plan.: Not published
SOC 2 SOC 2 status as stated by the vendor.: Not published
HIPAA Vendor offers HIPAA-compliant usage/BAA (on any plan).: Not published
