E2b, worked by an AI employee
Not another app for your team to learn, and not a set of rules for you to build. You hire an AI employee, you give it access to your E2b account, and you ask it for things in Slack or Teams the way you would ask anyone else on the team. There is nothing to map and nothing to maintain.

What E2b is
Open-source Code Interpreting for AI Apps. Run sandboxed code execution environments with support for multiple programming languages.
You paste in a key from your own E2b account. It is kept encrypted, and you can withdraw it from inside E2b whenever you like.
One message in, the work done in E2b.
- 01
You ask
You message your AI employee in the chat your team already has open, in one sentence, in your own words.
- 02
It works out the step
It decides what the job needs in E2b. You do not pick anything from a menu or wire anything together.
- 03
It does the work
Signed in to your own E2b account, inside the access you granted it, doing the thing you asked for.
- 04
It reports back
It tells you what it did, in the same thread. If it could not do something, it says so rather than guessing.

You stay the boss of your E2b account.
Nothing connects until you approve it. You grant access one app at a time, you can take it back the same way, and everything your AI employee does in there is written down where you can see it.
How we handle your data- It signs in to your own E2b account. You are not moving anything into ours.
- You grant access one app at a time, and you can take it back the same way.
- Everything it does in E2b is written down, with what it did and when.
- Anything you tell it to check with you first, it checks with you first.
It works in E2b and the rest of your software in the same job
A real job rarely stays in one place. Reading a message in one app, checking a record in another and writing the result in a third is one request to your AI employee, not three.
Questions people ask about E2b
- Can an AI employee really work inside E2b?
- Yes. It signs in to your own E2b account and works in it the way a new hire would, from the chat your team already has open. Nobody installs anything, and nobody learns a new screen.
- Do I have to move anything out of E2b?
- No. Nothing moves and nothing is replaced. Your records stay in E2b, your team carries on in the same screens they used yesterday, and your AI employee works alongside them in there.
- How does it get into my E2b account?
- You paste in a key from your own E2b account. It is kept encrypted, and you can withdraw it from inside E2b whenever you like. You approve it before anything connects, and you can take the access back the same way you gave it.
- What can it actually do in E2b?
- It has 27 ready-made tools in E2b today, among them Check API Health, Connect to Sandbox and Create Sandbox. The full list is on this page. It is not limited to those, but it never has to be taught them.
- Can it use E2b and the rest of my software in the same job?
- Yes, and that is usually the point. Reading a message in one app, checking a record in E2b and writing the result somewhere else is one request to your AI employee, not three separate ones you stitch together.
- Who decides what it is allowed to do in E2b?
- You do. You grant access one app at a time and can withdraw it at any time, anything you ask it to check with you first it checks with you first, and everything it does in E2b is written down with what it did and when.
