Introducing Omnara: the open-source alternative to Claude Managed Agents. Omnara is an API for creating and interacting with production-grade agents. You build the agent. Omnara handles hosting, durable state, sandboxes, permissions, secrets, and the rest of the production infrastructure. Available now Omnara

Sign up and build your first agent at Or have your coding agent do it. Paste this into Claude Code, Codex, or whatever you use: Read this skill and use Omnara to build me an agent: First make sure I'm logged in to Omnara, then ask what I want to build and suggest a few example ideas.

Your agent works on whatever machines you give it: our hosted sandboxes, your own sandbox provider, or anything running the Omnara daemon (your laptop, a VM, a box in your VPC). Model Providers: Anthropic, OpenAI, Bedrock, OpenRouter. Or any other compatible endpoint. Open-source models welcome. Bring your own keys or use managed credits. Want all of it in your own environment? Self-host the whole thing:

A few agents we've built on Omnara: — scans X daily for buying signals and DMs us the leads — writes our product usage report every morning on a cron — sits in Slack as a teammate and picks up whatever we tag it on — reviews PRs against our codebase's conventions — handles customer support, under your brand Source for the first two:

Next level stuff 🔥🔥🔥

First stop along the way to a country of geniuses in a data center

Congratulations on the launch Ishaan. 🥳 Going to explore this.

🥳

lets go hyped

hyped! lets build!

pointed my agent at this and it told me it finally found a manager worth working for

AGI??

@never_settles_ super cool - huge congrats on the launch! how should one think about omnara vs. vercel + eve agents? when should one pick one or the other?

hey thanks! good question. tldr: eve, like mastra, is a framework for building agents with code. you author one agent as a typescript codebase and ship it as a deployment. omnara is an api for running agents as a service: each agent is a durable object with endpoints for launching and steering it at runtime. wrote more here:

@never_settles_ amazing! read up on that thread but still don’t feel like i quite get it. i think even more examples of omnara in use would help - do you have a page with case studies or something? would love to learn more!

that's fair. the way i'd think about it: a lot of companies are building internal agent platforms right now, stripe minions, ramp inspect, shopify aquifer. each one is a service with endpoints their teams call to launch and interact with agents. omnara is that, open source. eve, mastra, langchain are for writing an agent in code and deploying it statically afterwards. omnara is a hosted service that you can create and interact with agents on. a platform. the docs walk through the api with worked examples:

@never_settles_ love it - will read up more in the docs as well, thanks a ton!

Lfggg!!

Great launch, lets go!

LG!!

Let's go Omnara 🚀

LG 🚀

open source shows up clearly in the Ishaan Sehgal Introducing Om part, and the presentation is clean.

thanks! have @Hinson_Kwong to thank

Been using the new platform for 2 weeks and it's one of the best AI infrastructures I've seen. Just pointed Claude at the docs and building new agents is super easy :)

awesome thats the goal :)

Awesome work. Beyond just being open source, I think not having your managed agents be linked to a model provider is the move.

agree! own your agents

Building the agent is the easy part compared to the infra

This is so cool!

hype 🙌

All the best 🚀

🚀

Been playing around with this, looks pretty cool. Gotta do some more extensive testing and report Looks like it will dramatically reduce deployment friction and infra complexity

This is huge let’s go!

congrats on the launch!

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Incredible work, gold standard for managing intelligence.

congrats!

@ycombinator Congratulations on your launch 🚀

Open sourcing the hosting layer is a generous choice. It gives teams a way to inspect how long-running agents are managed instead of trusting a black box.

big fans of open source!

Congrats on the launch 🚀

thanks! 🚀

Durable state and sandboxes are the actual product. Permissions and secret handling is where these platforms usually leak first.

sick video edit!

thanks! @Hinson_Kwong

this is cool - internally we do the same at @withmitra, where the team can build agents directly using the MCP and the API

Amazing. Congrats on the launch 🚀

appreciate 🚀

lfg!

LFG!

The time to own your agents is nigh 🤖

I'm lovin'it
