Products & Services
Frontier coding agent available through terminal/CLI, web UI and apps; supports modes, model routing, subagents and Oracle-style reasoning.
Remote, persistent development environments where agents can work asynchronously, run code, access projects, create portals and wake on schedules or events.
Meta-agent/helper that helps users find, start and orchestrate Amp threads and Orbs; supports separate conversations and voice control.
Mobile and desktop apps for controlling threads, Orbs and Puck away from a terminal.
Market Position
Amp positions itself as a frontier-oriented coding agent and development environment rather than a conventional IDE assistant: it emphasizes raw model power, evolving model support, persistent remote agents/Orbs, asynchronous execution, proof of work and collaboration. Its competitive set includes Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, OpenAI Codex and other AI coding agents; Amp differentiates with Orbs, event-driven/scheduled agents, Puck orchestration, portals and a usage/BYOK model.

Founding Story
Amp began as an experiment inside Sourcegraph in early 2025 and was launched publicly in May 2025. Sourcegraph and Amp separated because they had different distribution engines and target audiences: Sourcegraph serves enterprise code-search/infrastructure needs, while Amp focuses on developers and teams that want to work at the frontier of coding agents. Amp says its traction and profitability enabled the spinout into an independent research lab/company.
