Devin alternatives in detail

1. Amp

   freemiumAgent

   Amp is an agentic coding tool that spun out of Sourcegraph in December 2025: a CLI plus apps for the web, Mac, iPhone, and iPad that run frontier models to read, edit, and run commands across a repository. Subagents parallelize independent sub-tasks, the Oracle adds a second-opinion reasoning model, and threads can be shared with a workspace.

2. Goose

   open sourceAgent

   Goose is an open-source (Apache-2.0), general-purpose AI agent that runs entirely on your machine — it executes shell commands, edits files, runs tests, and chains multi-step tasks. MCP-native with 70+ documented extensions and model-agnostic across 15+ providers including local models, it ships as a Rust CLI and a desktop app for macOS, Linux, and Windows.

3. OpenHands

   open sourceMITWeb, macOS, Linux, WindowsAgent

   OpenHands (formerly OpenDevin) is an open-source platform for autonomous AI software-development agents that write code, run shell commands, and browse the web inside a sandbox. The core is MIT-licensed and runs locally with your own LLM key; a hosted OpenHands Cloud adds a free individual tier and paid enterprise options.

4. Swe Agent

   open sourceMITmacOS, Linux, WindowsAgent

   SWE-agent is a free, MIT-licensed autonomous coding agent from the Princeton NLP group that lets a language model of your choice fix bugs in real GitHub repositories. It pioneered the agent-computer interface (ACI) and posts strong SWE-bench results; the simpler mini-swe-agent now supersedes it for most use.

5. Claude Code

   paidCLI

   Claude Code is Anthropic's official agentic coding tool for the terminal, IDE (VS Code, JetBrains), and web. It works as an agent rather than autocomplete: it reads your codebase, plans changes, edits files, runs commands, and iterates against test or build feedback. Extensible via MCP servers, slash commands, subagents, and hooks; requires a paid plan.

6. Factory

   paidAgent

   Factory is an agent-native software development platform. Its autonomous coding agents, called Droids, plan, write, test, and ship code across the terminal (Droid CLI), IDE, and web, pulling in organizational context from GitHub, Jira, Slack, and your codebase. It targets individual developers and enterprise engineering teams.

7. Jules

   freemiumWebAgent

   Jules is Google Labs' asynchronous coding agent, free for up to 15 tasks a day. You connect a GitHub repo and describe a task; Jules works in a Google-hosted VM, proposes a Gemini-built plan, shows diffs for approval and opens a pull request. It is proprietary and labeled experimental, and its changelog's latest entry is March 9, 2026.

8. Replit Agent

   freemiumApp Builder

   Replit Agent is the AI builder inside Replit's browser-based cloud IDE: describe an app and it scaffolds the project, writes code, installs packages, runs it, and deploys to a live URL with database, auth, and hosting provisioned for you. Agent 4 adds a Design Canvas, concurrent task forks, and checkpoint-based effort billing on freemium plans.
