What is the Code Interpreter API?

A service for executing untrusted JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, Ruby and PHP.

How are people using it today?

Teams are using it to run code generated by LLMs, power data transformations, and extend their products for enterprise customers.

Why is it secure?

Code is executed inside a WebAssembly sandbox. Learn more in our security documentation.

What are the limitations of the developer preview?

These limitations are temporary. See our roadmap for more details.
  • Code only has access to data you provide, which includes command-line arguments, environment variables, and stdin.
  • No filesystem access.
  • No network access.
  • No external packages. Each interpreter has access to its language's standard library.
  • No support for alternative interpreter versions.
  • Execution time is limited to 30 seconds per invocation.
  • Memory consumption is limited to 128Mib per invocation.

How much does it cost?

During the developer preview the Code Interpreter API is free. We plan to charge based on usage once the API reaches general availability.

Can I self-host the Code Interpreter API?

Self-hosting is offered at your request on a case-by-case basis. Send an email to sales@riza.io or schedule a call.

What's coming next?

Our full roadmap is available in our documentation, but here are some highlights:
  • Allow interpreter customization via third-party packages and dependencies.
  • Allow outbound network requests, with customer-defined hostname and IP allowlists.
  • Allow filesystem access, with customer-defined capability controls.
  • Add support for more languages, including compiled languages like Go, Java, and Rust.
