Product Updates: Modal in AWS & GCP marketplaces, Sandbox improvements, and more

Modal announced availability through AWS and Google Cloud Marketplaces for enterprise customers, allowing purchases and usage management through existing cloud spend commitments, alongside sandbox observability improvements that add clearer resource, region, and execution-lifecycle details. Recent client releases introduce Python 3.14 and experimental free-threaded Python support, enhanced CLI token and timestamp inspection, and warnings for potentially blocking API calls in asynchronous contexts. The update also highlights Ramp’s use of Modal sandboxes to run its internal Inspect coding agent, which produces roughly 30% of the company’s production pull requests, and shares guidance on optimizing offline, online, and semi-online LLM inference workloads with engines such as vLLM and SGLang. Modal additionally describes its practices for maintaining a distributed fleet of more than 20,000 GPUs, including instance testing, image preparation, health checks, and reliability monitoring, while promoting February events in New York and San Francisco focused on AI, startups, reinforcement learning, and biotech.
