Meta has confirmed the acquisition of Conductor, a 2024-founded AI startup that provides a platform to orchestrate multiple coding agents simultaneously.
What Conductor does
The tool lets software engineers create isolated copies of their repositories, run AI agents (such as Anthropic's Claude Code, OpenAI's Codex or Cursor) in each, and review and merge the work produced. The company reports over 100,000 users and was already used by teams at Meta, Google and Spotify.
Shutdown timeline
Founder and CEO Charlie Holtz announced the join to Meta and said the Conductor Cloud service will become read-only on November 13 and shut down on November 20, with data deletion beginning then. The local Mac version will continue receiving updates until early 2027. Holtz promised “something new” for users early next year.
Context in the AI tools race
The acquisition comes as major AI companies seek to strengthen their developer offerings. Financial terms were not disclosed. Meta already has Muse Code and models such as Muse Wonder and Spark.
