Managoat is the hosted enterprise edition of Fountain
Have the conversation. Skip the infrastructure.
Managoat runs an agent on a cloud sandbox and hands your app a conversation with it. Send a prompt, read the reply. The sandbox parks between messages and wakes with its work intact — and you never provision, secure, or pay for an idle machine.
$5.00 of credit to start — then pay only for what your agents do.
The agent is the easy part.
- An agent needs a machine: a filesystem, a shell, a package manager, a network. That is real infrastructure, and it is not the thing you set out to build.
- It needs real credentials, and those must never reach the prompt, the model's context, or the logs you keep.
- Something has to start that machine, park it when nobody is talking, wake it on the next message, and keep every account's work apart.
What you stop building.
A thread and a machine per user
Bind a conversation to any channel id — a Slack channel, a customer, a row in your own product — and each one gets a durable thread on a sandbox of its own. No lookup table to keep, and nothing to carry between messages.
Credentials that never reach the prompt
Environments and Vaults merge when the sandbox spawns and arrive as ordinary environment variables. They stay out of the prompt and the model's context, and Managoat scrubs them from the output it stores.
Watch any turn, live
Output and lifecycle events stream over SSE as they happen. Ask for ?blocks=true and the server parses each runtime's dialect for you, so your client renders one shape instead of four.
Reach it the way you already build
ACP for an editor or a chat surface, AG-UI for a coworker platform, REST and SSE for your own code, plus a TypeScript SDK and a fountain CLI. The people using what you build need never learn that an agent is there.
Start with credit on us.
Your first conversation runs in minutes. There is no machine to provision, and no credit card to enter.
Get started freeNothing recurs. No lock-in.
Pay for what your agents do
No plans, no seats, no monthly fee. Buy credit, and every hour an agent works comes out of it. Bring your own model keys — Managoat never bills you for inference.
$0.25
per agent hour
An hour with a prompt in flight. A parked agent, an idle one, and one running on your own machine all cost nothing.
$5.00
to start, free
Good for 14 days. No card to sign up; add one when you buy more.
20
agents at once, at most
One more for every $2.00 you hold, from 2. Need more? Ask.
How billing works
Credit is the whole product. You start with $5.00, which expires after 14 days. Credit you buy never expires.
Agent time costs $0.25 an hour, out of that balance. An hour means an hour with a prompt in flight. A parked agent, an idle one, and one running on your own machine cost nothing. Two agents working for an hour on the same machine are two hours.
Teammate contacts come out of the same balance. A phone number $5.00 a month, an email inbox $2.00 a month, a month up front. Messages are $0.01 an email and $0.02 a text, sent or received.
Need more? Buy credit in packs of $10.00, $25.00, $100.00. One-time payments, no expiry, spent after your opening credit.
At zero, new work pauses; nothing dies. A new conversation or a new prompt is refused until the balance is positive again. Anything already running finishes, even if that takes the balance below zero. The next refill or purchase brings it back.
Your balance sets how many agents run at once. One sandbox for every $2.00 you hold, from 2 up to 20. A start beyond that is refused rather than queued; terminate a conversation, or top up.
Inference is never on our bill. Bring your own model keys; Managoat does not charge for tokens.
No card to start. Buy credit when the opening grant runs out, and only then.
