Agentuity vs E2B vs Niteshift

Somewhere for an agent to actually run the code it writes, without that being your laptop or your production cluster. These sit at different layers and are often combined rather than chosen between.

Which should you pick?

E2B is the primitive: an open source sandbox you embed in your own agent, free on Hobby and $150 on Pro. Niteshift is a fuller environment, provisioning a database, a dev server and a live browser so the agent can verify its own work instead of guessing, with a free tier and $50 individual plan. Agentuity is a deployment platform rather than a sandbox, bundling APIs, frontends and storage around agents you are putting into production, and is currently free plus usage costs. If you are building an agent, start with E2B. If you want the agent to check whether what it built actually runs, Niteshift is doing the more specific thing. Agentuity answers a later question, which is where the finished agent lives.
