To Conductor and its Users

First, to Charlie and the Conductor team: congratulations from a fellow YC alum. You built the product that proved a category. Running Claude Code, Codex and other agents side by side, in one workspace, with real review tools, was the right idea at the right time. Meta agreed, and bought it. That is a great outcome for a small team, and you earned it.

Second, to Conductor’s users: commiserations. You picked the right tool, and the tool was taken off the field. Conductor stopped taking sign-ups on November 4. Conductor Cloud goes read-only on November 13 and shuts down on November 20, when data deletion begins. The Mac app gets critical fixes until early 2027, then winds down too. Whatever Meta ships after that will be Meta’s, on Meta’s terms, and no one has said whether it will still run the third-party agents you use today.

This is the pattern now. A neutral layer above the agents gets good, and a lab buys it and closes it. We think that layer should stay independent, because the moment it belongs to one lab, it stops being neutral. That is the entire point of Cyborg.

Why Cyborg is the closest platform

Cyborg is the closest thing to Conductor you can move to this week, and in the ways that matter, it goes further.

• Parallel agents, one workspace. Every mission in Cyborg runs its own agents in parallel, with the review in the same place. Claude and Codex both work today, and they can work together inside the same mission, with Gemini and Grok next.
• Your accounts, your keys. We do not resell tokens. Your Claude or Codex subscription, or API key, powers your turns. We never mark up inference, and we never pool or share accounts.
• Multiplayer by default. Conductor was built for one developer running many agents. Cyborg is built for a team running many agents, together: your PM, your designer, your ops lead and your engineers in the same missions, with the agents. Anyone can start a mission. Anyone can jump in.
• Cloud and local, your choice. Missions keep running when you close your laptop.
• Nothing locked in. Export everything, any time. We will never sell or train on your data.

Feature parity within days

We are a team of six. We built Cyborg to match Conductor feature for feature, and we ship dozens of features a day each, using only Cyborg. Our commitment to Conductor’s users: full feature parity with Conductor in days, not months. If something you relied on is missing, tell us. It goes to the top of the queue, and you will see it land, likely that day.

Free to start, fair pricing: pay only for speed and controls

Cyborg is free to start. The free tier is unlimited seats, unlimited missions, and up to three missions computing at a time. Bring your own keys or accounts, like you did with Conductor. We support all the same models Conductor did, and more.

You pay for exactly two things, and nothing else:

1. Speed. Run more missions at the same time. Each additional concurrent mission costs a little more, and only while it is actually computing. A mission waiting on a human costs nothing.
2. Admin controls. Private channels, approval gates, team and org permissions, audit, and enterprise compliance.

No per-seat pricing, because seats punish you for bringing your whole team. No token markup, because reselling your own inference back to you is not a business model we respect. Just speed and control, priced reasonably for the levers they provide. A team of two or three can get by on the Free plan until they realize how much faster they are building. Upgrading to our $15/month plan gives such a team enough to build out a full product.

Businesses today pay per seat for Slack, Jira, Claude, Codex, Asana, Linear and many, many others. With Cyborg, you will soon realize you need nothing but your AI provider accounts or API keys to run your team: one workspace to rule them all.

Conductor’s cloud closes November 20. We formed on October 25, incorporated on October 29, and our official launch is Tuesday, November 10, 2026.
