What Maritime does

Maritime is cloud infrastructure for AI agents. We help companies give every customer an agent running in its own isolated, persistent computer, starting at $1 per agent per month. Maritime handles hosting, scaling, and sleep/wake automatically, so developers can run thousands of agents without managing the infrastructure.

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We built Maritime to give developers a way to easily run thousands of persistent AI agents in the cloud. With Maritime, you can provision an isolated, durable runtime for each agent, starting at $1 per agent per month. We take care of the hard stuff: hosting, autoscaling, sleep/wake cycles, and keeping every agent isolated and running. Our product saves teams from building this all themselves and lets them focus on their agent applications, not the infrastructure.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live in San Francisco, CA, and the company is based there.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco is the best place for cloud infrastructure and developer tools startups, especially for connecting with customers and other founders.
