Short answerBoth providers offer code execution tools in their APIs. OpenAI bills containers by memory size; Anthropic lists 1,550 free hours per organization per month then $0.05 per hour. Sandboxes have limits and Anthropic's has no internet.
| OpenAI code interpreter | Anthropic code execution | |
|---|---|---|
| How | Add a code_interpreter tool with a container and memory limit (1g, 4g, 16g, 64g) | Add a code_execution tool |
| Limits | Container expires after 20 minutes idle | 5 GiB RAM, 5 GiB disk, 1 CPU, Python 3.11, no internet, containers expire after 30 days |
| Price listed | Per container session by memory size (for example $0.03 for 1 GB per 20-minute session) | 1,550 free hours per organization per month, then $0.05 per hour per container |
