macOS app that orchestrates multiple Claude Code and Codex agents in parallel using isolated Git worktrees. YC S24 from Melty Labs (founders Charlie Holtz, Jackson de Campos); $22M Series A / ~$24M total (Spark Capital, Matrix, YC) now corroborated by PitchBook and Conductor's own Series A blog, with 10x growth since January 2026.

Broad named-adopter list (Linear, Vercel, Notion, Supabase, Stripe, Ramp, plus dozens of engineers at Google, Meta, Datadog, Block, Rippling, Amazon, Spotify). Sustained release velocity (v0.58.0 on May 25, 2026; model picker spans Opus 4.6 1M + GPT-5.4/5.5 + Codex, multi-model mode).

Competitive vacuum after Vibe Kanban (Bloop) shutdown early 2026 (now community-maintained OSS); Cline Kanban remains the active cross-platform alternative.

Caution

macOS Apple Silicon only (Intel Mac in development, no Linux/Windows roadmap), no enterprise features (SSO/audit/RBAC/SOC2 — only a nascent 'Enterprise data privacy' toggle plus email-activated tool approval), agents run unsandboxed with full user permissions, no CLI/API/headless mode, free-only pricing with unproven monetization.

Naming collision with unrelated 'Conductor' products (Netflix/OSS workflow engine, Microsoft/Gemini CLI extensions, Conductor SEO, Packagist Conductor GitHub Action CVE-2026-45793 — none are this tool).

Assessment

Status rationale

Tracked — research-based monitoring with no hands-on testing. $22M Series A / ~$24M total (Spark Capital, Matrix, YC) is now corroborated by an independent PitchBook profile and Conductor's first-party Series A blog (prior eval relied on vendor claims), alongside YC S24 pedigree and an expanded named-adopter list (Linear, Vercel, Notion, Supabase, Stripe, Ramp, plus dozens of engineers at Google, Meta, Datadog, Block, Rippling, Amazon, Spotify) — a strong viability signal. Sustained product velocity (v0.58.0 on May 25, 2026) and clear product-market fit in multi-agent orchestration.

Blocked from Assessed by lack of internal hands-on evaluation; blocked from Validated additionally by no enterprise features (SSO/audit/RBAC/SOC2), macOS-only platform, agents running unsandboxed with full user permissions, no CLI/API/headless mode, and an unproven business model (free with no paid tier shipped).

Watch for

Movement triggers

Upgrade to Assessed if: hands-on internal evaluation completed with documented findings, enterprise features (SSO/audit logging) ship, cross-platform support (Windows/Linux) launches, CLI/API mode enables CI/CD integration, or paid enterprise tier materializes with named customers. Downgrade if: Series A capital not converted to enterprise traction within 12 months, free-to-paid conversion fails to materialize, macOS-only constraint drives users to cross-platform alternatives (Cline Kanban), or development velocity stalls.
