- Conductor Cloud launched on July 30th, shifting coding-agent management from local repositories to persistent cloud workspaces.
- Developers can collaborate in shared workspaces, prompt agents together, and monitor work via a desktop client; the API enables programmatic workspace and agent management.
- Each cloud workspace runs in an isolated microVM with preinstalled dependencies, providing a persistent environment for long-running tasks.
- Conductor supports multiple first-party agents (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, OpenCode) using customers' existing subscriptions, acting as a neutral management layer.
- Pricing: Pro at $50/month, Teams at $60/user/month (invite-only); free plan for local workspaces. iPhone app in TestFlight supports cloud workspaces only.
- Founders Charlie Holtz and Jackson de Campos met at Brown University; Holtz has background in finance and AI, de Campos in ML infrastructure. They previously built Melty, an open-source AI code editor.
- Conductor raised $22M Series A from Spark Capital and Matrix Partners (total $24M), claims 10x growth since January, and is used by engineers at major tech companies.
- Competitors include Cursor, Imbue's Sculptor, and Superset; Conductor positions itself as a neutral management layer for multiple agent providers.
