Orgo gives AI agents desktops that keep running after logout

An AI agent that uses desktop software needs somewhere to keep its browser sessions, files and unfinished work. Orgo is selling that place: a persistent cloud computer that continues running after its human operator closes a laptop.

The startup's October 21 launch puts Linux and Windows desktops behind a dashboard and developer tools. Customers can start with a template, watch an agent work live and take over when it needs help. Orgo says computers become available in seconds, without customers having to set up the underlying servers.

That persistence is central to the pitch. A short-lived environment may be enough for a single code execution. A desktop agent handling a longer workflow needs its applications and state to survive between tasks. Orgo describes machines that retain their files and setup across restarts, making the computer a continuing workspace rather than a disposable session.

The platform is designed to accommodate different models and agent frameworks. Its website describes agents using screenshots, mouse movements and keyboard input, alongside managed setups for tools such as Claude Code and Codex. The developer interface includes APIs, a command-line tool and MCP support, while SSH provides another way to access a machine.

For teams building products on top of agents, the unit of deployment can be a computer for each end user. Orgo says its tools can create and control thousands of desktops. Templates and cloning let developers reuse a configured environment, and the launch describes changing CPU and memory resources while a machine is running.

The human view is equally practical. Operators can inspect a live desktop instead of interpreting a log of actions after something has gone wrong. Taking control gives them a way to resolve a blocked step, then return the task to the agent. It also makes visible what software the agent is actually interacting with.

Orgo says more than 1,000 teams use the service, and its launch announcement reports thousands of production desktops. Those are company-reported adoption figures; the announcement does not break them down into paying customers or provide retention data. The product starts at $29 a month, according to the launch.

Spencer Kinney, Nick Vasilescu and Tiger Wang founded Orgo, which is in Y Combinator's Fall 2026 batch. Their announcement also previews Mac computers and GPU-equipped environments, including demonstrations involving Minecraft and Unreal Engine. Those offerings are in closed beta, separate from the Linux and Windows machines available now.

The distinction keeps the current offer straightforward. Orgo supplies the computer and the controls around it; the agent still has to perform the work. For developers already experimenting with desktop automation, the immediate question is whether a persistent, observable machine can make those experiments reliable enough to leave running unattended.
