Hollow Host
About Hollow Host
HollowHost is a serverless hosting platform for AI agents. Users connect a GitHub repository containing Python code, including plain scripts, LangChain or CrewAI projects, and HollowHost builds the container image, provisions the runtime on AWS Lambda and runs it as an AI Job. No Dockerfile, Terraform or IAM setup is required, and users do not need their own AWS account.
Jobs can be triggered on demand from the dashboard or CLI, or placed on a cron schedule for tasks such as scraping, enrichment, reports, monitoring and AI pipelines. Dependencies install with pip or uv, and API keys are stored encrypted and injected at runtime rather than baked into the image. Each job gets its own scoped execution role and isolated runtime, and the dashboard shows run status, duration and output logs.
Usage is metered in tokens per run, with visibility into consumption and remaining balance. The platform is aimed at developers who want to run Python agents in production without maintaining their own servers or cron boxes.
