Daytona vs OpenSandbox

OpenSandbox leads on trust: 70.8/100 (Grade B) against 53.8/100 (Grade C), a 17.0-point gap. Daytona leads on supply-chain integrity and adoption, and rests on broader evidence; OpenSandbox leads on transparency and maintenance. Note: OpenSandbox's evidence coverage is thinner (coverage B vs A) — its score rests on fewer independent signal types.

How to read this: HVTrust (0–100) weighs supply-chain signals (provenance, OSSF Scorecard, signed commits, open license) alongside real-world adoption, scaled by an evidence-confidence factor. Grade bands: A ≥ 80, B ≥ 65, C ≥ 50, D < 50. Signals refresh daily. Full methodology v4.4 →
