Even vs Conductor, honestly.
Conductor solves one job well: run several coding agents in parallel, each isolated in a git worktree, then review the diffs and merge. Even includes that pattern and the rest of the environment around it. If you want a Conductor alternative that is also cross-platform and more than an agent runner, read on.

Where Conductor shines
- Zero-friction parallel agents in isolated git worktrees, with the ceremony automated.
- Clean diff-first review and one-click pull requests; supports Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and OpenCode.
- Free: you pay the model providers directly, with no markup.
What Even adds
- The whole workspace, not just the run-agents-and-review-diffs layer: terminal, browser, services, local models.
- Cross-platform (Conductor is macOS only) and not built around a single vendor.
- GitHub CI, one-click services your agents operate, and a skills marketplace.
Which is right for you? Conductor nails parallel-agent orchestration on the Mac and is a lovely free tool. Even includes parallel agents and adds the terminal, browser, services, and local models around them, on every platform.
