OpenHands (formerly OpenDevin) is an open-source autonomous coding agent platform from All Hands AI. Run it free locally or in their cloud with your own model keys; Enterprise adds self-hosting in your VPC and SSO.
What is OpenHands?
OpenHands agents can write code, run commands and browse the web inside a sandbox, and you can drive them from a web GUI, a CLI or an SDK for building your own agent workflows.
Because it is model-agnostic and self-hostable, it is a common choice for teams that need autonomy without sending code to a closed vendor.
