Agentic Development Environment for the AI era

site: factorai.build status: alpha platform: macOS, Linux and Windows through WSL 2 CI licence: MIT

[!NOTE] Early, and used daily by several senior engineers. Two update channels, switched in Settings → Advanced: Stable (default) gets a release once alpha users have run it; Alpha gets every passing change on main, often several a day. Leaving alpha never downgrades. Point factorai at work your version control can recover.

You stopped writing most of the code. Your editor never noticed.

factorai is built the other way round: the unit of work is a session, not a file. You supervise, decide, review, and set the rules. Agents do the rest. Free, open source, community-driven: no company, no paid tier.

Run several agents at once

Each session is the real claude or codex CLI in a real terminal, and keeps running when you look away. A dot says whether it is working, waiting for you or stopped.

Three sessions open as tabs, one agent mid-task in its terminal, and the sidebar's dots saying which is working, waiting or stopped

Agents on a schedule

A routine is a saved prompt on a cron, per project. It runs in the background without taking a tab, and catches up on runs missed while factorai was closed.

A project's Routines tab: a nightly triage, a weekly dependency bump and a disabled monthly job, each with its schedule and next run

Arranged the way you think

Drag projects into groups you name, or sort by name or recent. Keyboard too.

Projects dragged into the Pro and Side projects groups in the sidebar

Every message, every session

Full-text search across every transcript, read in place from ~/.claude and ~/.codex. Nothing imported, nothing copied.

A search for "retry" finding matches in four sessions across three projects, each with the line it matched

Audit whenever you choose

Changes, diffs and the commit graph sit beside the terminal, and keep up with an agent mid-edit.

The Changes panel grouping a merge conflict, staged and unstaged files, a diff of one of them open, and the agent that made them beside it

The Graph tab: a merged branch, tags and the current branch, with one commit open on its changed files

Local and private

No telemetry, no account, no server. factorai drives the CLIs you already logged into and never touches your credentials. Closing the window kills every agent it started.

Install

Download from factorai.build or Releases: .dmg for macOS, .AppImage for Linux (glibc 2.39+), factorai-setup.exe for Windows, which installs the Linux build into WSL 2. It updates itself and asks before restarting. You need Claude Code or Codex, already logged in.

Something look broken? See installation and troubleshooting. Building from source is in CONTRIBUTING.md.
