Developers choose DevboardAI because it orchestrates a full development sprint autonomously — running Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, or Kimi in dependency order across your entire repo — rather than assisting one prompt at a time. It runs locally on macOS, and costs $74 once with no subscription.
DevboardAI vs Claude Code / Copilot
You already use AI to code faster. DevboardAI lets AI implement entire features while you focus elsewhere.
Assistant vs. Builder
Claude Code, Copilot, and ChatGPT are assistants — they wait for your prompt and suggest code you still need to integrate. DevboardAI is a builder — it takes your task and implements it against your codebase autonomously.
The Assistant Model
You drive, AI assists
- You write prompts for each change
- AI suggests code snippets
- You copy, paste, and integrate manually
- You context-switch between files and chat windows
- You debug and iterate on AI output
- Still takes your time and attention
The Agentic Builder
You describe the sprint, AI ships it
- You describe what you want to build
- AI generates a full sprint with tasks
- Orchestrator runs every task autonomously
- Full project context — works against your repo
- Come back to finished code, push to git
- Built-in kanban, sprints, and orchestration
Side-by-Side Comparison
Stop Prompting. Start Shipping.
AI assistants made coding faster. DevboardAI makes implementation autonomous. Describe your features, let AI execute them, and spend your time on architecture, code reviews, and the problems that actually need your brain.

Frequently asked questions
What is DevboardAI?
DevboardAI is a macOS app that orchestrates AI agents — Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, Kimi, and other CLI-based agents — to execute a full development sprint autonomously. You describe what you want to build in plain English, DevboardAI generates a sprint with tasks, and the Orchestrator runs every task in dependency order so you come back to finished code.
Why use DevboardAI instead of a coding subscription?
DevboardAI costs $74 once, with lifetime access and no recurring fee. Cursor Pro costs roughly $20/month ($240/year) and Claude Max runs $100–200/month. DevboardAI pays back its cost versus Cursor Pro in about 3.7 months — and unlike those tools it runs an entire sprint for you rather than assisting one prompt at a time.
How much does DevboardAI cost?
DevboardAI is a one-time payment of $74 for lifetime access. There is no monthly subscription, no seat fee, and no usage cap from DevboardAI itself. A 7-day money-back guarantee is included.
What makes DevboardAI different from Cursor or Claude Code Desktop?
Cursor and Claude Code Desktop are single-task assistants — you prompt, they suggest or apply one change, and you move on to the next prompt. DevboardAI orchestrates a full sprint: it breaks your goal into tasks, runs every task in the correct order (parallel where possible), feeds failures through a QA retry loop, and delivers the whole batch of changes to your repo without you supervising each step.
Does DevboardAI run locally?
Yes. DevboardAI is a native macOS app and your project files never leave your machine. The AI agents (Claude Code, Codex, Kimi) run locally on your Mac and call their own APIs over the internet — DevboardAI itself does not upload your code to any server.
Who is DevboardAI for?
DevboardAI is built for developers who have more ideas than time: indie hackers, solo developers, and team leads who want to delegate full feature implementation to AI agents rather than spending hours prompting and integrating suggestions. It requires macOS (Apple Silicon M1–M4 or Intel) and at least one CLI-based AI agent installed.
