Our verdict

Otto writes code and then actually executes and tests it inside a browser sandbox built on Web Containers, iterating on its own until the code runs without errors. There's no setup: it starts from a browser tab, installs npm packages, and edits its own TypeScript config as it works. Because everything runs in that in-memory, isolated environment, it's suited to prototyping and debugging self-contained snippets rather than testing against a real production database or backend.

✓What it does well

Self-testing iterationIt runs and tests its own code, iterating automatically until errors are fixed.
Zero setupEverything runs in the browser, so there's nothing to install locally to get started.
Real execution environmentIt can install npm packages and edit its own TypeScript config while working.

✕Where it falls short

Sandboxed onlyCode runs in an in-memory browser sandbox, not against a real backend or database.
No persistent environmentThe virtual file system is isolated, without a lasting local project setup carried between sessions.
Web onlyIt's browser-based only, with no desktop app or IDE plugin listed.
