Open Source Agents for Developers
All Hands AI is building open-source AI agents to help developers tackle repetitive tasks and focus on more complex challenges. They are committed to making agentic technology accessible and believe it's too important to be controlled by a few corporations. They partner with AI safety experts to ensure responsible development and are actively collaborating with researchers to improve their agents. OpenHands, their flagship agent, is designed to perform various tasks a human developer can, including writing code, running commands, and utilizing the web. The project boasts a large and active community of contributors.
The leading open-source AI code assistant.
