About HumanLayer
HumanLayer is a workspace for building software with coding agents. It brings agent sessions, plan artifacts such as research notes, designs, plans and mockups, and code diffs into one place, so a team can review and steer the work agents are doing. A local daemon runs sessions on a workstation, cloud daemons handle longer tasks, and the same interface is available on the web, desktop and phone.
It is aimed at engineering teams that want to collaborate on agent driven development, including in large codebases. The capabilities that matter most are task grouping of sessions and artifacts, comment driven refinement of design documents by people and agents, full visibility into agent tool calls and code edits, and the option to bring your own compute, development environment and agent harness.
The Starter plan is free for small teams of three members or fewer. The Pro plan costs $100 per user per month and adds bring your own key support for coding agents such as Claude Code and Codex. Enterprise pricing is custom and includes data processing agreements.
The desktop product is installed with Homebrew on macOS or downloaded directly, and the vendor publishes separate installation instructions for Linux and Windows.
