Droid

Factory's coding agent for the desktop, terminal, and SDK.

Droid is Factory's coding agent. You use it in the desktop app, the terminal, and the TypeScript SDK, and it can keep working in the background on your machine or in the cloud. Droid 1.0, announced on October 29, 2026, makes programmatic tool calling the default. The model writes a short JavaScript script that runs in a sandbox and can call many tools in one request. The script itself has no file, network, or system access. Calls in that script that do not depend on each other can run at the same time. Factory's announcement includes its own efficiency comparisons. This entry does not repeat those numbers.

Where it ranks

  1. 07

    Codingof 15

    Seventh as Factory's coding agent for the desktop, the terminal, and an SDK. In Droid 1.0 the model can write a short script that batches many tool calls. It sits behind the editors and repository agents people already open, and behind Devin and Amp, the other agents built to carry a task on their own. Factory-managed cloud computers start on the Plus plan.
