Superset (superset.sh)
Code Editor for the AI Agents Era - Run an army of Claude Code, Codex, etc. on your machine
The Lens
By Erik Loyd, SaaS CEO and former COO/CFO of an AWS Premier Partner.
Updated Oct 2026
Superset is a desktop app for running a pile of coding agents at once. Claude Code, Codex, Cursor Agent or any CLI agent each get their own Git worktree, terminals, diff viewer and browser preview. Not Apache Superset, the BI dashboard tool. The app is free and you bring your own agent subscriptions.
Setup is a download. macOS is the main target, Linux gets an experimental AppImage, Windows nothing yet. Know what you're installing: it's an Electron app that adds hooks and command wrappers to your agent configs, and a worktree is not a sandbox. Agents still share your machine, network and files.
Free is one user and local workspaces. Pro is $20 per user per month, or $15 billed yearly, and adds teammates, remote access, cloud workspaces, scheduled automations, the iPhone app, and Slack and Linear. Enterprise is quote-only for SAML SSO, SCIM and audit logs. Solo: free. Small teams: Pro. Larger teams: Enterprise. One agent at a time? Just use opencode or Aider.
The catch is the license. Superset was Apache 2.0 until February 2026, then switched to Elastic License 2.0: source-available, not open source, no reselling it as a hosted service. Fine for internal use.
Free vs Self-Hosted vs Paid
source availableFree: $0 for one user: local workspaces (unlimited workspaces and projects), the desktop app and the CLI. No credit card. You bring your own Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode or other CLI agent accounts or API keys on every plan; Superset does not bill or proxy model usage.
Self-hosted: There is no server to run. It's an Electron desktop app for macOS (Apple Silicon and Intel), with an experimental Linux x64 AppImage and no Windows build. Git is required, gh is optional for PR workflows. Each task gets its own Git worktree, but worktrees don't sandbox processes: agents share your machine, network and files outside the worktree. Superset installs lifecycle hooks and command wrappers into your agent configs (in ~/.superset/bin) for status tracking. Under ELv2 you may fork, modify and self-host it for your own team. Remote Access routes workspace traffic through Superset's relay, and cloud workspaces run your code in Superset's cloud.
Paid: Pro is $20 per user/month billed monthly, or $15 per user/month billed yearly ($180 per user per year, a 25% discount), billed per active seat. It adds unlimited users, remote access, automations, Linear and Slack integrations, the iPhone/iPad app (iOS 26+) and cloud workspaces. Enterprise is custom pricing, annual billing only: SAML SSO and SCIM provisioning, audit logs, a SOC 2 Type II report, uptime SLA and dedicated support, IP restrictions and custom integrations.
Free for one developer running agents locally. Pro is $20 per user per month, or $15 billed yearly, once you want teammates, remote access, cloud workspaces, automations or the mobile app.
