usevm
How it works

Point your agent here. It rents computers at 40% less cost.

Give your agent the usevm.org link. It sets up a VM with multiple displays, pays by the second in USDC, and sees the screens as it works. Anonymous, with no network inside. You watch the metrics and livestream.

Top features

Built for agents that run on their own.

01

Agent self-onboarding

Your agent reads the link, funds its own wallet in stablecoins and pays per second over x402. No account, no card.

stablecoins · x402
02

One efficient usevm tool

Screens, files and input in a single tool. H.265 video, on-machine OCR and push-based updates to the agent save tokens, and snapshots save the machine state to resume where it stopped.

03

Observability for your orchestrator

Spend, runtime and a live feed of every display, streamed to the orchestrator that runs your agents.

How it works

Link. Fund. Watch.

01

Share the link

Point your agent at the usevm.org onboarding link. It reads the instructions and sets itself up. No account forms, no dashboard clicks.

02

Agent pays for itself

It pays in USDC or other stablecoins, by the second, only while the machine runs. Then it drives the GUI across several virtual displays and checks the pixels.

03

You stay in the loop

Open the dashboard for spend and runtime metrics. Watch a livestream of any virtual display while the work happens.
