About OpenHands
OpenHands is an open-source autonomous coding-agent platform from All Hands AI — formerly OpenDevin.
Its edge is an open, self-hostable take on the autonomous agent: MIT-licensed and self-hostable in Docker, bring-your-own-key for any major LLM, and a sandboxed runtime that exposes a browser, file editor, and terminal to the agent.
It's for teams who want Devin-style autonomy without the lock-in and are willing to run it themselves. Caveats: self-hosting needs Docker familiarity and a capable machine, and the hosted SaaS tier is still feature-limited compared with commercial agents like Devin.
It's the open, self-hostable counterpart to the managed, closed Devin.
