Meta acquired Conductor, an AI coding startup. Conductor lets developers run multiple coding agents in parallel. The startup was founded in 2024 by Charlie Holtz and Jackson de Campos. Financial terms were not disclosed. The deal positions Meta to compete for developer adoption. OpenAI also announced a separate acquisition of Pierre Computer the same day. Winning at coding improves AI models, according to an independent researcher. Meta aims to simplify managing multiple coding agents.
