Glasshand gives your AI agents real iPhones and Macs to work on. Connect Claude Code, Codex, or any other agent, and it can rent a device with a single prompt. The hardware sits in our data center, and your agent uses it the way you would: posting on TikTok, booking an Uber, or building and testing iOS apps. Each device is yours alone for as long as you rent it. When you’re done, we erase your data and factory-reset it.

Could you build this?
No Renting real iPhones and Macs to agents requires owning and operating a physical device farm in a data center, which vibe coding cannot provide.
What it would actually take: Build a data center with racks of real iPhones and Macs, with power, cooling, networking, and remote-control capture (video streaming, touch injection, reset and reimaging). Add an orchestration layer that leases devices to agents through an API, with isolation, billing, and Apple device-management and developer-account compliance. This needs hardware operations, infrastructure, and device-farm expertise plus capital for hardware.
