Introduction
Amp is the frontier agent. It is a coding agent and a development environment. You can build software with it on your machine, or remotely in orbs.
- Multi-Model: GPT-5.6, Claude Fable 5, fast models. Amp uses them all, for what each model is best at.
- Orbs: Machines that Amp creates per thread, with your code, tools, and plugins already set up. Send a prompt, close your laptop, and the agent keeps working.
- Opinionated: You’re always using the good parts of Amp. If we don’t use and love a feature, we kill it.
- On the Frontier: Amp goes where the models take it. No backward compatibility, no legacy features.
- Threads: You can save and share your interactions with Amp.
