Railway opens free VMs, no account required

Railway now offers free Linux VMs through ssh railway.new, with no account or credit card required. Each VM includes 2 vCPUs, 2 GB RAM, preinstalled coding agents, and a preview URL for 60 minutes before requiring a claim.

// ANALYSIS

Railway is turning cloud infrastructure into a disposable workspace for developers and autonomous agents.

–Zero-signup access removes the biggest friction in trying a new deployment platform
–Preinstalled coding agents make the VM immediately useful for prototyping and experimentation
–The 60-minute window encourages fast iteration rather than production hosting
–Developers have 24 hours to claim the VM and preserve its files and URL
–Automatic deletion of unclaimed machines keeps the offer controlled but makes the claim link operationally important
