Cloud comparison hub: cloud coding agents compared

Quick answer

It depends on which agent you want, who pays for its model usage, and who runs the control plane. If your team is committed to one vendor's agent, such as Devin, Droid, Claude or Cursor, that vendor's cloud product is the shortest path. If you want free open source to run yourself, look at OpenHands. If you want a team workspace with Jiro or any harness in Slack, on your own Claude or ChatGPT subscription with no token charges, choose Nori.

Cloud coding agents at a glance

Every product below runs coding agents on cloud machines and hands back pull requests. Each row links to a full head-to-head page.

"Not documented" means the vendor pages we read on November 11, 2026 do not establish it. It does not mean the vendor lacks it. Prices are plan fees; usage and model charges may be extra.

Enterprise deployment: who runs the control plane?

The control plane is the service that decides who may start a session, which credentials it gets, where it runs and what is kept afterwards. Most products let you host some execution while the vendor keeps the control plane. Devin's deployment docs say Cognition retains the agent brain even with Outposts. Cursor's self-hosted workers execute tools while Cursor retains planning and inference. Warp keeps the control plane and lets customer storage hold selected data. Factory's default private deployment retains hosted control, and its negotiated air-gapped deployment excludes Slack and cloud sync.

Two paths put the control plane in your hands. OpenHands Agent Canvas is free, MIT licensed and self-hosted, so you operate it yourself. Nori deploys the full stack, control plane included, into your own AWS VPC or Azure VNet, or on-prem, with your identity provider (SAML, SCIM, OIDC), LLM gateway and compute.

On hosted plans, Nori gives each organization a dedicated, single-tenant control plane and data store, and every session runs in its own isolated sandbox. For the vendor-by-vendor breakdown, read what an agent control plane is.

Nori

Nori is a cloud platform for coding agents, built for engineering teams. Someone writes @nori the invoice PDF shows the wrong tax rate for EU customers, fix it and add a test in a Slack thread; Nori starts an isolated sandbox with the team's repositories, skillset and scoped credentials, and the pull request link comes back in the thread. The same sessions start from Discord, the web, the CLI, cron schedules such as 0 7 * * 1-5, one-time reminders and webhooks. Every session starts with org skillsets and shared memories, runs on your own Claude or ChatGPT subscription, API keys or gateway, and Nori never charges for tokens.

Meet Jiro

Jiro is the AI engineering teammate that Nori ships. It runs on Claude Code or Codex with your own subscription or key, follows a workflow of planning, test-driven development and review, and in its first days reads your repositories and asks the team how you ship. See jiro.bot. If you already use Claude Code locally, start with Nori vs Claude Code.

The alternatives

Devin

Cognition's Devin has self-serve plans at $20 and $200 per month, and Teams from $80. Eligible personal ChatGPT plans can fund GPT usage, with exclusions. Its automatic memory is personal and is excluded from automation sessions. Read Nori vs Devin.

Factory

Factory's Droid is sold on Pro, Plus and Max plans and a Teams plan at $60 plus $40 per seat. Personal custom-model BYOK applies to the CLI and desktop app, not to hosted web or mobile sessions. Read Nori vs Factory.

Claude Tag

Anthropic's Claude Tag is a public beta for Team and Enterprise plans. Slack channel work uses an organization-funded balance, routines are documented, and channel notes and workspace notes are distinct, with different write rules for public and private channels. Read Nori vs Claude Tag.

Cursor cloud agents

This row changed in November. Cursor's plans are now Premium at $30, Super at $100 and Ultra at $200 per month; the Free plan and the $8 Plus plan exclude cloud agents. Cursor documents native automations on schedules and app events. Read Nori vs Cursor cloud agents.

Grok Bot

This row changed too. The current Grok Bot docs, published in Cursor's documentation, describe a persistent computer shared by one user's Bots, not one computer per Bot. Slack Team Bots, skills, memory, routines and Enterprise enablement are documented. Our October statement that Enterprise was waitlist-only is obsolete, and the claim that only xAI models can be selected was not re-established, so we no longer make it. Read Nori vs Grok Bot.

Amp Orbs

Amp has a free Hobby subscription and an Individual plan at $20 per month with 45,000 hosted-Orb minutes; the team layer adds no charge. Amp documents BYOK, subscription reuse and no Amp token fees, which makes it the closest to Nori on billing. Orbs are priced per minute, schedules resume the same thread, and enterprise own-runner billing changes on November 13, 2026. Read Nori vs Amp Orbs.

Warp Factories and Oz

Warp runs Warp Agent, Claude Code or Codex. Claude Code and Codex inference goes directly to the provider, unlike Warp Agent. Pay-as-you-go usage is API rates plus 20%; Build at $20 per month and Business at $50 per user per month charge usage separately at API rates. We no longer describe it as a closed beta, because the November review did not re-establish that. Read Nori vs Warp.

OpenHands

The OpenHands Agent Canvas is free, MIT licensed and self-hosted, and it supports external agents, BYOK and automations. Teams is $500 per month for ten users, plus $50 per added seat, capped at 5,000 sessions per month. Self-hosted Slack needs a publicly reachable HTTPS address. The October prices of $499 and $999, and the claim that external agents need a paid plan, are retired. Read Nori vs OpenHands.

Google Jules is shutting down on December 31, 2026

Google announced the end of Jules on October 29, 2026. According to the Jules changelog, users could finish sessions through November 11, 2026; after that Jules is read-only, and it shuts down on December 31, 2026. The export includes settings, memories and schedules. The task quotas on the usage limits page are now historical and are not a reason to buy.

If Jules ran your scheduled work, export before the shutdown date and map each schedule to a replacement. What to use after Google Jules shuts down walks through the export and compares the replacements.

Sourcegraph Cody reaches end of life on January 31, 2027

A Sourcegraph notice dated November 9, 2026 sets Cody's end of life for January 31, 2027 and confirms that Amp is independent. Sourcegraph now emphasizes code context and search for agents, and its Enterprise plan starts at a $16,000 annual contract, as single-tenant cloud or self-hosted. Sourcegraph Cody end of life: what to switch to explains which jobs moved where.

When to choose Nori

• You want the combined team workflow: Slack and Discord, schedules and webhooks, projects, shared memories and skillsets, in one product.
• You already pay for Claude or ChatGPT and do not want to buy the same model usage again.
• You want to keep your harness, or use several, and change as models improve.
• You want a ready teammate, Jiro, that plans, works test-first and reviews its changes.
• Your security team needs the control plane in your own cloud, with SAML and SCIM from your identity provider.
• You want flat pricing by machine with unlimited members on the Team plan.

When to choose a single-vendor agent

• Your team has standardized on that vendor's agent. If everyone works in Cursor, or the company has committed to Devin or Droid, the vendor's own cloud product needs the least change.
• You want one bill for agent and models. Some teams prefer that nobody manages model credentials at all.
• You want a low entry price for one person. Several vendors list $20 per month plans, and Amp has a free Hobby subscription.
• You need open source. OpenHands Agent Canvas is free and MIT licensed if you can operate it.
• You want pipelines as code. That is the design goal of Warp Factories.

How to switch cloud coding agents

The steps are the same whichever product you leave and whichever you move to.

1. Inventory. List every automation with its trigger and prompt, every saved instruction, playbook or memory, and every integration and credential the agent uses.
2. Export what the vendor lets you export. For Jules this has a deadline: December 31, 2026.
3. Connect models in the new product. On Nori, sign in with your Claude or ChatGPT subscription, or add API keys or a gateway.
4. Move context. Instructions go into AGENTS.md or CLAUDE.md in the org skillset, repeatable procedures become skills, and standing facts become shared memories.
5. Recreate triggers. Schedules become cron automations, event triggers become webhook automations, and chat mentions move to the new Slack or Discord app.
6. Run both for a week. Give both products the same five tickets, compare the pull requests and the bill, then cancel one.
