## Runtime

- **GPU & accelerators**: No — "No GPU offering surfaced; coding-agent dev sandboxes (CPU/RAM/disk only)." [source](https://www.superconductor.com/) (confidence: medium)
- **BYOC (Bring your own cloud)**: Enterprise: deploy sandboxes in your own cloud or private infrastructure; contact sales. [source](https://www.superconductor.com/pricing)
- **Secrets management**: Encrypted project/workspace credentials; exported secrets reach build/startup/terminal/agent environments; inline secret substitutions scoped to command block. Short-lived workload identity JWT available via SC_IDENTITY_TOKEN_FILE. [source](https://www.superconductor.com/docs/projects/development-environment)
- **Storage options**: Configurable sandbox disk. Pricing says 2–16 GB; development-environment docs say 2–20 GB. Files persist through idle pause, but not a separately managed volume. — "Current pages disagree on maximum disk; confirm with vendor before sizing." [source](https://www.superconductor.com/pricing) (confidence: medium)
- **Supported workloads**: parallel-coding-agents, isolated-development-environments, live-app-previews, qa-checks, agent-benchmarking, scheduled-agent-tasks [source](https://www.superconductor.com/)
- **Persistence**: Filesystem retained across automatic idle pause; running processes stop and startup commands rerun on resume. Not an attachable durable-volume product. [source](https://www.superconductor.com/docs/projects/development-environment/lifecycle)
- **Data jurisdiction**: United States (AWS US regions) — "Security: 'Hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS) in US regions'; 'Primary data storage in United States'. US-only." [source](https://www.superconductor.com/security) (confidence: high)
- **Resource limits & quotas**: Free: 32 sandbox-hours/month, 4 vCPU/8GB, 4 members and 4 concurrent agents. Pro: 8 vCPU/32GB, 32 members and unlimited concurrency. Enterprise: 16 vCPU/64GB, unlimited members/concurrency, custom compute allowance. 15-minute preview idle pause. Resource docs have older 8 CPU/16GB limits. — "One sandbox-hour = 1 vCPU/2GB for one hour; metered per second. Pricing limits take precedence; docs discrepancies retained." [source](https://www.superconductor.com/pricing) (confidence: medium)
- **SDK languages**: Not documented — "No platform SDK documented in complete public docs index." [source](https://www.superconductor.com/docs/llms.txt) (confidence: high)
- **Network & egress controls**: Strong: per-project network sandboxing with 3 modes (no-access / custom-allowlist / full), per-domain rules with wildcards + read-only (GET/HEAD/OPTIONS) flag, curated package-registry allowlist; default = custom-access with trusted registries. — "Security §8.2 Agent Network Sandboxing: three access modes + custom rules + required-domains + per-agent provider domains." [source](https://www.superconductor.com/security) (confidence: high)
- **Snapshots & forks**: Saved project filesystem snapshots seed fresh implementations; build failures retain the last completed snapshot. No live memory/process checkpoint guarantee. [source](https://www.superconductor.com/docs/projects/development-environment/lifecycle)
- **Deployment methods**: dashboard — "Launch from browser/desktop/mobile UI, Slack, GitHub, Linear, email, meetings, or scheduled automations; no public platform API/CLI documented." [source](https://www.superconductor.com/) (confidence: high)
- **Isolation**: Container — "Security policy explicitly states container-based isolation. Live Preview docs also call environments cloud VMs; underlying provider boundary is not specified consistently. Retain disclosed container baseline, not a hypervisor guarantee." [source](https://www.superconductor.com/security) (confidence: medium)

## Method

Facts come from the product's own public pages. Each claim carries its evidence: a quote and the page it came from. We count capabilities rather than grade products, and "Not assessed" means we have not checked, never that the product lacks it.
