Warp

Warp is an open agentic development platform built around the terminal, founded in June 2020 by Zach Lloyd (former Principal Engineer on Google Docs and CTO at TIME magazine) in New York City. Starting as a reimagined terminal built natively in Rust for macOS, Warp expanded to Linux (February 2024) and Windows (2025), growing to 718,000+ active developers and adoption across 51% of the Fortune 500 — including Anthropic, OpenAI, Docker, Google, GitHub, Amazon, NVIDIA, Ramp, DoorDash, and Asana. Warp has raised $73M total: a $6M seed (GV/BoxGroup/Neo), a $23M Series A in April 2022 (GV, Dylan Field of Figma, Sam Altman, Marc Benioff, Tobi Lütke), and a $50M Series B in June 2023 led by Sequoia Capital. By early 2026, Warp was reportedly adding ~$1M ARR weekly.

Warp's platform has three layers. The Warp Terminal is a block-based, AI-native terminal that treats each command and its output as a first-class object — groupable, searchable, shareable, and navigable. It supports bash, zsh, fish, and PowerShell, includes an AI sidebar (Warp AI) for asking questions and debugging errors in natural language, and integrates with Warp Drive for cloud-synced team commands, workflows, and environment variables. The Warp Agent CLI (launched 2025) is a standalone coding agent installable via curl in any terminal — it understands your codebase, autonomously executes multi-step tasks, pipes into shell scripts, and runs across macOS, Linux, and Windows without the Warp Terminal IDE. Warp Factories (launched 2026, Early Access) is cloud infrastructure for running fleets of coding agents across the full SDLC — defined as code, running on any model or harness (Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Warp Agent), with SDLC-wide insights including cost per PR and automation rate.

Warp supports frontier models including Claude Opus 5, GPT-5.6, Gemini 3.1 Pro, Fable 5, GLM 5.2, and Kimi K3 via OpenRouter, LiteLLM, Amazon Bedrock, and BYOLLM. Integrations include Slack (@Warp bot), GitHub, and Linear for triggering agents from chat threads. Warp is SOC 2 certified with Zero Data Retention across all contracted LLM providers.

Warp uses a credit-based Freemium model with five tiers. The Free tier ($0) includes the full Warp Terminal, Warp Agent CLI access, limited cloud agent sessions, pay-as-you-go credit reloads, and the ability to bring your own AI inference keys.

Build ($20/month, $18 annually) includes 1,500 credits ($20 of agent usage at API rates), full model access (Claude Opus 5, GPT-5.6, Gemini, Fable 5, and more), highest codebase indexing limits, unlimited Warp Drive objects, unlimited cloud conversation storage, auto-reload with team-wide spend caps, and private email support. Max ($200/month, $180 annually) provides 18,000 credits — 12x Build's included usage — for high-volume individual developers. Business ($50/user/month, $45 annually) adds per-seat included credits for up to 25 seats, team usage metrics, admin-configurable data controls, BYOK (bring your own API keys), and SAML SSO.

Enterprise is custom-priced and adds unlimited seats, custom shared credit pools, advanced spend controls, enterprise admin and data governance, BYOLLM (route inference through your own cloud at no credit cost), self-hosted cloud agents on customer infrastructure, custom codebase indexing, cross-harness agent memory, Enterprise Analytics API, a dedicated account manager, shared Slack channel, and white-glove onboarding with an implementation engineer. Warp Factories usage is included in Build/Max/Business plans or available pay-as-you-go at API rates + 20%.
