Beam lets you run functions, REST APIs, task queues, and sandboxes on CPUs and GPUs, end to end. There’s no infrastructure to manage and no YAML to write: you define everything in code, and Beam runs it in containers that launch in under a second.

​
Get Started

Create a free account on Beam to get $30 in credit, then pick a path to start building. Most people start with the SDK and add the docs MCP if their editor speaks it (Cursor, Claude).

Run Your First App

Install the SDK, run a function, and deploy a web endpoint in minutes.

Add to Cursor or Claude

Connect the Beam docs MCP so your AI editor has live context.

​
What You Can Build

Endpoints and Web APIs

Deploy functions as autoscaling REST APIs on CPUs and GPUs.

Sandboxes

Run untrusted or LLM-generated code in secure, isolated environments.

GPU Inference

Serve ML and LLM inference on on-demand GPUs.

Task Queues

Process heavy or long-running jobs asynchronously.

Functions and Scheduled Jobs

Run one-off functions, batch jobs, and cron schedules with no timeouts.

Host Any Container

Deploy any existing Docker image as a web service.

The Python SDK provides Beam’s decorator programming model (functions, endpoints, task queues, and sandboxes). The TypeScript SDK provides programmatic access for creating sandboxes and calling deployed endpoints.
