E2B's figures come from its pricing page, read on 31 October 2026. The hourly prices are our arithmetic from its per-second rates.

When should I choose E2B?

Choose E2B if you need a bring-your-own-cloud deployment, or want a provider with a long record: its site says more than 2 billion sandboxes have run on it. Quivvo doesn't offer bring-your-own-cloud.

When should I choose Quivvo?

Choose Quivvo if your agents do long-running work and you want a machine that keeps its state rather than a session that ends. A Quivvo machine has root, Docker on the default template and a persistent disk at /data. It suspends when idle, keeping memory and processes when it can and otherwise stopping, which keeps the disk, and wakes on the next command. It also costs about a third as much per running hour at list price, and its prepaid credit doesn't expire.
