Meta has acquired Conductor, a startup whose software lets developers coordinate multiple AI coding agents in parallel workspaces. Conductor announced it was joining Meta, and Meta confirmed the acquisition to TechCrunch; financial terms were not disclosed. [1][2]
Conductor says new users can no longer sign up. Its cloud workspaces will become read-only on November 13 and shut down on November 20, with users able to export their data before then. The company says its local app will continue receiving new models and critical bug fixes until early 2027. [1] TechCrunch reported that Conductor’s agents use models from outside providers, including Anthropic and OpenAI. [2]
