## The use case: how Mintlify deploys Daytona

Mintlify uses Daytona to provision isolated, long-running, stateful sandboxes in which its AI agents clone repositories, analyze code and generate documentation. This powers its 'Docs from GitHub' feature and inline agentic documentation requests, such as those raised from Slack threads.

Summary written by usedby from the source page, in English. The figures are those of Daytona and Mintlify, not ours.

> As demand surged, the team used Daytona to dynamically spin up more than 1,000 concurrent sandboxes.

- **1K+**: “1K+ parallel sandboxes provisioned in minutes with Daytona”
- **\<90**: “\<90 millisecond sandbox creation times”

> We needed a way to migrate our core agentic workflows to sandboxes, and Daytona didn’t disappoint. Without their lightning-fast provisioning and continuous support, shipping our 'Docs from GitHub' feature in one quarter simply wouldn't have been possible.
