## The use case: how Parabola deploys Daytona

Parabola uses Daytona to provision an isolated, stateful sandbox for each AI-generated workflow step in its natural-language automation feature, Prowork. This lets it run code it didn't write in a secure environment that scales with concurrent demand.

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

> Daytona provisions an isolated sandbox for every workflow that Prowork’s AI generates, adding a dedicated layer of isolation on top of Parabola’s robust security architecture.

- **120k**: “120k sandboxes created weekly with Daytona”
- **15%**: “15% of workflows supported by Daytona”

> Sandboxes that start quickly and retain context between runs are critical for our AI-powered platform feature. Daytona provides us with that speed and statefulness regardless of how many sandboxes we’re running concurrently.
