compare

one app for the things you'd otherwise split across four

There are good tools for running parallel AI agents. We're not going to pretend otherwise. What vord does is bundle the pieces that are usually split across several of them — Mac-native multi-vendor parallelism, a real status grid, an encrypted iPhone remote, live session sharing with another person, and a git inspector — into one polished app. Here's where everything lands.

the real difference

no single line wins it —the combinationdoes

Look down any one column and someone matches vord. Conductor is also native and free. Claude Code Remote Control also does mobile, on every plan. The open-source tools are vendor-flexible and cost nothing. vord's case is the row, not the cell. It's the only one that puts all of it in a single Mac-native app: Claude Code and Codex in one grid, a status engine that knows why an agent is waiting, an end-to-end encrypted iPhone remote, live session sharing with a second person, and a git inspector deep enough to actually review the work. If you only need one of those, one of the others may suit you better. If you want them together, polished, that's vord.

Any one feature has a match somewhere. Native? Conductor. Mobile? Claude Code Remote. Multi-vendor? Vibe Kanban or Claude Squad. Live sharing with another person? None of them, as of today.
vord is the row, not the cell. All of it together, in one native Mac app — that's the thing nothing else does.

an honest read on each

where each one is genuinely good

Conductor
The closest comparison: a native Mac app running Claude, Codex, and Cursor in parallel isolated workspaces, glanceable, and free per its public info. Conductor Cloud (announced spring 2026) keeps your own agents running in hosted environments after you close the laptop. It stays a single-user tool though — its FAQ says collaboration features are planned for later, and there's no mobile control documented. If you don't need a phone remote or live sharing, it's a strong pick.
Claude Code Remote Control
Anthropic's official feature for driving a local Claude session from your phone or browser, included on every Claude plan, with server mode up to 32 sessions. The mobile app is genuinely good. The honest differences: it's Claude-only, and it connects you to your own session on your own devices — there's no way to hand a live session to another person. vord is multi-vendor, adds a dedicated status grid, and shares sessions across users.
Vibe Kanban
Free, open source, board-style management of many agents with git worktrees. Web-based, no native Mac polish, no notifications, no mobile, no live sharing. Worth knowing: Bloop, the company behind it, wound down in April 2026 — the project lives on community-maintained under Apache-2.0, rebuilt to a fully local architecture. If you live in a browser tab and want it free and open, it still delivers.
Claude Squad
Free, open-source (AGPL) terminal TUI over tmux, supporting Claude, Codex, Gemini, and Aider. Terminal-native, no mobile, no notifications, no sharing — but if your whole workflow already lives in the terminal, it fits right in.

the combination, in one app

If "all of it, native, polished" is what you've been wanting, that's what we're building. Built by developers who run five to eight sessions a day and got tired of missing the one that needed them.
