Meta Acquires AI Coding Startup Conductor
Meta has acquired Conductor, an early-stage startup specializing in agentic software development. Conductor's platform allows engineers to deploy multiple AI agents into parallel workspaces to manage complex software projects. The acquisition is part of Meta's broader strategy to bolster its artificial intelligence capabilities and catch up with competitors in the coding assistant space. Conductor founder Charlie Holtz indicated that while core features will remain functional for now, the company's cloud service is scheduled to shut down on November 20. New integrated products are expected to launch by early next year. This move follows Meta's recent release of Muse Code and its successful deployment of Muse agents, which have already reached over 10 million users.
