  "summary": "Dutch startup Boxd has secured $2 million in pre-seed funding to develop cloud infrastructure for AI coding agents. The funding round was led by BlueYard Capital, with participation from OVNI Capital, Antler, S20, Script Capital, and business angels from General Intuition and other tech companies. Founded by Michiel Voortman, Laurentiu Ciobanu, and Hidde Kehrer, Boxd is creating a platform that provides virtual machines for developers and AI agents to execute code, run tests, and manage software development workflows. The company's unique approach to virtualization enables developers to create as many cloud machines as needed, while also offering snapshotting and live-forking capabilities to allow multiple agents to test different solutions in parallel. Boxd's platform aims to reduce the need for configuring and maintaining separate development environments, while also providing hardware-isolated, persistent virtual machines for safe development and deployment.",
