Managed AI Agents: Third Way Hosting

Managed AI agents mean always-on hosts without surrendering keys—microVMs, BYOK, templates. How AI-native companies host fleets.

Managed AI agents is a hosting question, not a model question.

Two bad options show up every founder conversation:

  1. Babysit a VPS forever — every agent is a snowflake host. You become ops.
  2. Surrender to a black box — someone holds keys, proxies spend, owns memory.

The third way

Managed runtime, still yours.

  • Isolated microVMs
  • Harness of your choice
  • BYOK keys inside the tenant
  • Templates/forks for the next department
  • Observability + token usage transparency without token resale

That is the host half of an AI-native company OS. The work half is fleets, memory, channels, plugins.

Frequently asked questions

What is managed AI agents?
A practical building block of an AI-native company operating system—how you run agents that create value with ownership, isolation, and cost honesty—not a chat widget alone.
How does this relate to building an AI-native company?
Fleets, observability, memory, channels, and plugins are the OS. This topic is one pillar; the free 7-day course walks all five and soft-introduces managed microVM hosts.
What is the free AI-native company course?
A 7-day email series on fleets, observability (including token usage), memory, communication, and plugins—with optional soft jurniti CTA and no free trial of compute.
Does jurniti charge for model tokens?
No. jurniti is BYOK: you bring keys. Token usage is an advisory meter for spend transparency, not a token resale or free tier.
Is there a free trial?
No free trial or free tier. The email course is free. First paid purchase has a 30-day money-back guarantee.
