About Brainbase

What Is Brainbase

Brainbase is a managed platform for companies that want an AI workforce doing real work inside their own systems. You define an agent, pick a model and a harness such as Claude Code or a custom loop, attach skills and MCP servers, and Brainbase runs it in secure sandboxes.

The hard part of agents isn't the first demo. It's the 200th run, when the invoice agent starts approving payments it shouldn't. Brainbase is built around that problem: every run gets traced, scored against criteria you write, and checked against a test set before a new version goes live.

The limit is scope. This is an internal agent platform for teams, not a consumer chatbot. Pricing starts free, but production use with orchestration and evals costs $500 a month, and the heavier compliance features sit behind enterprise contracts.

Getting Started

  1. Create an account at app.brainbaselabs.com and claim the free credits.
  2. Write the agent definition: name, model, harness, instructions, skills, and any MCP servers or functions it can call.
  3. Add criteria and a handful of past tasks so the platform can score outputs, not just whether a run finished.
  4. Deploy, then review traces and eval results before you widen access to your team.

Key features

Managed Agent Hosting and Sandboxes

Brainbase runs your agents on its infrastructure, with 20 concurrent sandboxes on the free plan and 200 on Teams. You skip the job queue, the container setup, and the retry logic. Each run happens in isolation, so a bad tool call doesn't leak into the next task.

Model and Harness Router

You aren't locked to one vendor. Point an agent at a hosted model, bring your own keys, or run it through a harness like Claude Code. Swapping the model is a config change rather than a rewrite, which matters when a cheaper model becomes good enough for a task.

Evals That Gate Every Change

AI agent evals are the core of the product. You write criteria, the platform scores runs against them, and scheduled evals re-run stored tasks on every change. Support covers unit and regression testing, code evals, LLM-as-judge, custom benchmarks, and agent-as-judge on higher plans. The practical effect: you find out a prompt tweak broke refund handling before your customers do.

Agent Orchestration for Teams

Agents can hand work to each other toward a shared goal, with shared tools and memory. A triage agent can route a contract question to a specialist agent and return one answer to the user. Orchestration is a Teams feature, so the free tier is single agent work only.

Observability with Full Run Traces

Agent observability here means every run is recorded with its steps, tool calls, inputs, and outputs. Free accounts keep traces for 7 days, Teams for 30, and enterprise customers set their own retention. Traces are how you answer "why did it do that" without reading logs by hand.

Integrations, MCP, and Custom Functions

Agents reach 3,000+ integrations, MCP servers, and your own functions. They can also be triggered from Slack, chat, Zoom meetings, or phone calls, and scheduled workflows run on a timer. Webhook triggers are listed as coming soon, so event driven setups still need a workaround.

Pros and cons

Pros

  • Evals and traces come with the hosting, so quality control isn't a separate project.
  • Model and harness choice stays open, including bring your own keys.
  • Free tier is real: unlimited deployed agents and $25 in credits with no card mentioned.
  • Compliance coverage is broad for a young product: SOC 2 Type II, GDPR, HIPAA, SSO, and hybrid deployment.

Cons

  • The $500 monthly step from free to Teams is steep for a two person team testing one agent.
  • Key controls like SSO, custom retention, and on-prem deployment are enterprise only.
  • No webhook triggers yet, which limits event driven automation.

It hosts AI agents, runs them in sandboxes, records every step, and scores the output against criteria you define. Think of it as the operations layer between your agent code and your business systems.
