Frontier coding agent originally built at Sourcegraph, now developed by the independent Amp Frontier Corporation.
Agentic coding tool that runs in the CLI, editor plugins, and a web interface with mobile remote control. Spun out of Sourcegraph as a standalone company (Amp Frontier Corporation) on December 2, 2025, led by Sourcegraph co-founders Quinn Slack and Beyang Liu. Positions itself as built for leading frontier models and emphasizes pay-as-you-go pricing with no markup for individuals.
Strengths
- Multi-surface workflow across CLI, editor plugins, web, and mobile remote control
- Pay-as-you-go pricing with no markup for individual users
- Extensible via plugins and MCP servers
- Independent, self-described profitable company focused solely on the agent
Tradeoffs
- Closed source, unlike terminal-agent alternatives such as OpenCode or Aider
- Opinionated model selection managed by Amp rather than freely user-configured
- Fast-changing product and branding (recently consolidated Amp Neo back into Amp)
