About Prized
Prized is a cloud development environment that feels local on your Mac. Developers get a dedicated, persistent machine with their repos, dependencies, and tools already configured. Files sync into a real local folder, remote ports appear on localhost, and terminals persist through tmux, so developers and coding agents can keep working even after the laptop closes. Machines can be resized or cloned as workloads grow, without rebuilding the development environment.
