Coding agents for enterprise engineering teams, available from the browser, a CLI, a VS Code extension or an API.

## Overview

Blackbox AI provides coding agents for enterprise engineering teams. Agents can be started from a browser, a command-line tool, a VS Code extension or an API.

API tasks run in an isolated cloud sandbox, edit a connected repository and open a pull request, while the command-line tool and extension run on the developer’s machine. Blackbox runs its own models alongside Claude, Codex and Gemini agents, and customers can connect their own provider accounts. Users can plug in outside tools through MCP.

Enterprise contracts are a yearly per-token commitment rather than per seat.

**Who it is for:** Enterprise engineering teams.
