A public OpenAPI file covers 69 operations. No terms of service, privacy policy or security page was found, the free plan includes no compute credit, and the changelog holds one entry from November 2024.\n\n**SPACE.** Once deployed, SPACE's native API has a public OpenAPI 3.1 contract, stable error codes with a retryable flag and 24-hour idempotency keys, and egress and credential controls sit outside the VM. A person must first deploy it on a Linux x86_64 host with KVM and Kubernetes. Version 0.8.0 has no tagged release, changelog or public container images.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Morph Cloud\n\n1. Set `ttl_seconds` and `ttl_action` when starting an instance. Nothing in the docs stops an instance with no TTL from billing MCUs\n2. Pass `auth_mode: api_key` when exposing an HTTP service. The default is `none`, which makes the URL public\n3. Enable `wake_on_ssh` before calling exec on an instance that may be paused. There is no separate exec wake setting\n4. Use `/api/instance/list` and `/api/snapshot/list` with `page` and `limit` (default 50, maximum 1,000). The plain list routes return everything\n5. On a 503 from snapshot, branch, pause or reboot, wait for the `Retry-After` value before repeating the call\n\n### SPACE\n\n1. Ask your operator for the API base URL (before `/v1`, or `/api/v1` on shared hosts), the data-plane URL and a bearer token before planning any call\n2. Poll the returned operation until it succeeds and the sandbox is `running` before creating a command. A 202 response is not readiness\n3. Attach to the command's events URL with its session token to start the process, decode base64 output, and treat only `process_exited` as completion\n4. Send an `Idempotency-Key` on creates, lifecycle calls and commands, and retry only when `retryable` is true, after any `Retry-After`\n5. Save output as it arrives. Reconnecting with `Last-Event-ID` returns `resync_required`, not the missed output\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Morph Cloud or SPACE?\n\nSPACE scores 56.2 (C) on agent readiness against Morph Cloud's 50.8 (D), and leads in 5 of 7 scored categories. Morph Cloud leads on reliability and maintenance \u0026 community.\n\n### Do Morph Cloud and SPACE need an API key?\n\nMorph Cloud needs an API key. SPACE takes an API key or an OAuth sign-in.\n\n### Can an agent call Morph Cloud and SPACE without installing anything?\n\nMorph Cloud has a hosted endpoint at https://cloud.morph.so/api. No hosted endpoint is listed for SPACE.\n\n### Are Morph Cloud and SPACE open source?\n\nNo open-source release is listed for Morph Cloud. SPACE is open source (Apache-2.0).\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/morph-cloud-vs-perplexity-space.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/morph-cloud-vs-perplexity-space.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"morph-cloud\", \"b\": \"perplexity-space\"}`.
