Open Labels

How Recoup's API and agent tools let you build a programmable record label around your artists, catalog, and music workflows.

Today we're announcing sandbox.recoupable.com. Sandboxes are a rearchitecture of Recoup, with a shared file system and Bash for each label. A sandbox provides an environment where an agent can run code, store files, and work within configured runtime, storage, and access limits. Connected workflows can help move information between tools—for example, preparing audience information for a release document when the required data access and integrations are configured.

The current web app (chat.recoupable.com) was built over 18+ months ago. We started building Recoup when the AI SDK was first released. Web chat was still in its early days. We were building chats that knew what artist you selected and showed Tool UI Components based. We ran into a few core issues along the way.

Before

  • Leaving the tab → lost progress
  • Custom file system → bugs + maintenance
  • MCP tools → limited access

Now

  • Durable workflows → resumable work
  • Sandboxes → isolated file systems
  • Bash → command-line tools and integrations within the environment’s permissions and limits

Legacy: Create new artist

Agents can use durable workflows and cloud environments to keep work separate from a browser session. Recoup sandboxes are a fork of Open Agents by Vercel, a framework for long-lived agent workflows. The architecture brings together:

  • Workflows — resumable steps within the service’s runtime and usage limits.
  • Sandboxes — isolated file systems for label work.
  • Bash — command-line access to tools and resources permitted by the environment.

A connected workflow might retrieve an available asset or use permitted Chartmetric data to prepare an update to a release document. The available sources, data freshness, and write access depend on the integrations and credentials in the setup. Review the result before relying on it or sharing it with the team.

Sandboxes are still evolving, and some integrations require API keys or setup—but the core workflow is live today.
