The positioning sentence is the brand decision. Pick "the only agent sandbox where the agent can earn" and run.

Every other downstream marketing decision (homepage, pitch deck, Twitter bio, conference badge) follows from this one sentence. "AI app builder" is taken — Replit + Anything own it. The unclaimed wedge is agent-economy infrastructure: the combination of MPP Gateway + router.nodeops.network + marketplace. No competitor has assembled the stack. Cloudflare is closest and they made their move on April 13.

Reframe is the move. Homepage hero, pitch deck slide 1, founder narrative, conference one-liner — all converge on the new sentence. The window is measured in months before someone else claims the lane.

Deeper: Positioning & Wedge · Playbook 01 — Acquisition

The 5-player positioning landscape
Replit
"Creativity runs" — canvas for non-coders + devs + enterprise.
Anything
"Make money on the internet" — storefront for indie makers.
Hercules
"Build stunning SaaS, eCommerce…" — non-tech founders. 100k+ users. Same shell.
Fly.io
"Run AI-generated code in complete safety" — runtime under the builders.
Multica
"Your next 10 hires won't be human" — agent orchestration (OSS, 21.3k★).
CreateOS
"The only agent sandbox where the agent can earn" — agent-economy primitive. Unowned.

The 3 acquisition plays — from playbook/01

Each play has been observed in market on at least one competitor; CreateOS gets to do them combined with MPP.
01
Pre-signup prompt box on the landing page
Full-size prompt input on homepage. Submit → signup → land in a pre-filled project with the idea travelling through the wall. Replit + Anything both do this; CreateOS doesn't yet. Activation multiplier — abandoning a typed idea feels like loss.

02
Example chips + template carousel below the prompt
3-5 clickable example prompts ("Earning research agent", "Trading agent", "Support agent") + curated template carousel deep-linking into pre-set projects. Anything has neither — gift them their #1 missed activation lever.

03
Logo strip + competitive migration imports
8 real customer logos below the fold. Plus first-party "Import from [E2B / Modal / Daytona]" docs — capture-play that no agent-runtime competitor is running. Replit's named imports (Bolt / Lovable / Figma / GitHub) is the template; for CreateOS the analog is "import your sandbox + plug in MPP."

Pick distinctly — utility-grade landing pages are invisible.
Distribution event · The single most important launch moment
Agent Economy Week — coordinated 5-day launch, Month 2-3

Cloudflare ran Agents Week on April 13 and absorbed the agent-economy narrative for that quarter. Repeat the structure with a CreateOS-specific spin. Sequencing:

Day 1Positioning keynote — "the only agent sandbox where the agent can earn." Founder narrative.
Day 2Customer cases — 3+ live earning agents on MPP. Real revenue numbers, real wallets.
Day 3Ecosystem announcements — LangChain partnership, x402 alignment, Virtuals integration.
Day 4Product reveals — router.nodeops.network deep-dive + per-agent spend caps.
Day 5Developer day — SDK quickstarts (OpenAI Agents SDK, LangChain, raw TS / Python). Hackathon kickoff.

Target: 5% of Cloudflare Agents Week attention = significant distribution at current stage. Tied to CreateOS — 30-60-90 plan, Move 03.
