Matrix OS

Your cloud coding computer for developers who run AI coding agents.

Cloud coding computer

Matrix OS is a persistent cloud computer with an AI kernel — for developers who run AI coding agents.

Sessions keep running after your laptop closes. Reach your computer from the web shell, CLI, mobile, or desktop.

Matrix OS is a real computer hosted in the cloud. It has a terminal, a file system, persistent shell sessions, and an always-on AI kernel. You clone repos, run tests, launch coding agents, and leave long-running work running — then pick it up from any device.

A computer, not a dashboard

Matrix is not a chat window bolted onto a cloud service. The AI is the kernel: it has access to the shell, files, integrations, and skills, and it keeps working after you close the browser.

Why Matrix

Your cloud computer should stay awake, remember context, and move with you.

Local development keeps asking the wrong machine to do the work. Matrix gives developers a persistent computer in the cloud so agents, terminals, previews, and context keep running without laptop sleep hacks or keep-awake apps.

Always-on compute

Keep terminals, dev servers, previews, review loops, and agents alive after the laptop closes.

Agents keep running

Claude, Codex, Pi, OpenCode, and Hermes work inside the same cloud machine instead of fighting local sleep.

Work from anywhere

Move between the web shell, CLI, and upcoming Mac/iOS apps without moving the project.

Shared with teammates

Hand off a running workspace, terminal session, repo, or preview without recreating local setup.

Context in one place

Files, repos, settings, skills, logs, integrations, and agent history live in the Matrix workspace.

How it works

Provision your Matrix computer

Sign up at app.matrix-os.com, choose your power level and region, complete billing, and wait for your computer to provision. Takes a few minutes.

Open the web shell

The web shell at app.matrix-os.com is your primary interface. Open Terminal, authenticate GitHub with gh auth login, clone your repo, and start working.

Connect from your laptop

Install the matrix CLI and run matrix login. Attach to persistent sessions, sync files, and run coding agents — all against the same cloud computer.

Launch a coding agent

Start Claude, Codex, Pi, or OpenCode in a named session. The agent runs on the Matrix computer and keeps going after you detach. Pick it up later from the web, mobile, or desktop app.

Where to go next

What Matrix is

Persistent sessions. Your terminal sessions keep running on your Matrix computer. Disconnect and reconnect from anywhere — long builds, agent runs, and test suites keep going.

One computer, four surfaces. The web shell (app.matrix-os.com), the matrix CLI, the mobile app, and the desktop app all connect to the same machine and the same sessions. No re-cloning, no re-authenticating.

AI at the kernel level. Hermes is always on. Coding agents — Claude, Codex, Pi, OpenCode — install as tools on your Matrix computer and run in named sessions. The AI kernel has access to the shell, files, apps, and integrations with your permission.

Your files are yours. Your home directory, repos, and workspace data live on your Matrix computer. The platform handles routing, auth, and recovery.
