From the source
Perplexity open-sourced SPACE, the sandbox platform behind its Computer agent, on October 15th under the Apache 2.0 license.
- The company says SPACE has powered every Computer session since July, and it described the release as the first component of a broader Agentic Runtime Platform.
- Perplexity is publishing infrastructure it says already runs Computer at scale, betting that developer adoption and cloud partnerships will make its approach to agent containment a shared runtime.
- The release reflects the company's bet on enforcing agent security at the runtime level rather than elsewhere in the stack.
