A Conductor alternative for Windows, and for teams

By the Friday Work team · Updated 1 October 2026

Conductor runs parallel Claude Code and Codex agents on a Mac. If you are on Windows, or you need teammates in the same session, Friday Work is a desktop app for Windows and Mac that runs your own coding agents in one shared session.

What is Friday Work?

Friday Work is a multiplayer AI workspace for coding teams. Your people and your coding agents work in one live session: the same task, the same record, the same tools. It is a desktop app for Windows and Mac.

  • Teammates join a session by link, watch every step, suggest changes and take control when it is their turn.
  • Claude Code, Codex and Cursor run on your own machine and your own accounts, side by side in one session, with Friday’s own agent when you want it.
  • Continue a Claude Code or Codex session you already have, instead of starting over.
  • Plan, Manual or Auto: you decide what an agent may do, and approve its commands as a team.
  • Connect GitHub, Slack, Linear and 50+ more tools over MCP once, and choose which agents may use them.
  • Free to start. Pro is $20 a month ($18 a month billed yearly).

When is Conductor the better pick?

If you work alone on a Mac and want many agents running in separate worktrees with a diff-first review screen, Conductor is simpler.

When is Friday the better pick?

If you are on Windows, if more than one person needs to act in the same session, or if you use more than one coding tool, Friday fits.
