Alternatives to Devin

Open-source AI agent platform (formerly OpenDevin) for building developer agents that modify code, run shell commands, browse the web, and call APIs through a composable Python SDK and CLI. OpenHands runs agents in sandboxed Docker containers accessed via SSH, supports Claude/GPT/any LLM, and has solved 50%+ of real GitHub issues in software engineering benchmarks.

SWE-agent is an MIT-licensed autonomous coding-agent reference from Princeton and Stanford researchers that takes GitHub issues and attempts fixes with a bring-your-own language model. Its agent-computer interface remains foundational for repository navigation, editing, and test execution. The README now says development has shifted to mini-swe-agent, which supersedes SWE-agent and is generally recommended going forward.

Sweep is a JetBrains-first AI coding assistant that pairs a next-edit autocomplete engine with an in-IDE coding agent. Autocomplete watches recent edits to predict where you'll change code next; tab jumps between proposed locations to compress multi-file refactors. The agent stages multi-file diffs inside the IDE. A 1.5B open-weight next-edit model shipped in February 2026. VS Code and Zed users currently get autocomplete only.

Anthropic's agentic CLI coding tool that delegates complex tasks to Claude directly from the terminal. Understands entire codebases via automatic context gathering, edits multiple files, runs shell commands, and manages Git workflows autonomously. Supports CLAUDE.md for persistent project instructions, integrates with VS Code and JetBrains, and uses Claude Opus/Sonnet with extended thinking for complex architectural decisions. Built for terminal-first developers.

Codex is OpenAI's coding agent for software development across the Codex app, editor, terminal, and cloud tasks. It helps write, review, debug, refactor, and automate code, with ChatGPT plan access for managed surfaces and API-key usage for CLI, SDK, and IDE workflows. The open-source CLI and SDK support local repository work, while cloud features add GitHub review, Slack/Linear integrations, worktrees, skills, MCP, and automations.

AI-first code editor built as a VS Code fork that deeply integrates LLMs into every part of the development workflow. Features Tab autocomplete with multi-line predictions, Cmd+K inline editing, AI chat with full codebase awareness, and Agent mode for autonomous multi-file edits with terminal execution. Supports GPT-4, Claude, and more with automatic context from project files and docs. Includes privacy mode for SOC 2 compliance. The leading AI-native IDE with 100K+ paying users.

Google Antigravity is Google's AI-powered agentic development platform, announced in November 2025 and expanded with Antigravity 2.0 at I/O 2026, that places autonomous AI agents at the center of software development. Distributed as both a VS Code-based desktop app and the new Antigravity CLI, it runs planning, implementation, and verification agents — backed by Gemini 3.1 Pro/Flash, Claude Sonnet/Opus 4.6, and GPT-OSS 120B — across editor, terminal, and browser.

Amp is a multi-model coding agent for terminal, web, macOS/iOS, and IDE-connected workflows. Vendor docs describe the same agent and threads across surfaces, with remote Orbs, local Runners, Dial modes (low / medium / high / ultra), shared threads, MCP, plugins, and BYOK / linked ChatGPT subscriptions. Pricing spans a free Hobby tier, optional Megawatt ($20/mo) and Gigawatt ($200/mo) Individual plans, no-extra-charge Teams workspaces, pay-as-you-go credits, and Enterprise.
