Offrun alternatives

Offrun runs several AI coding agents side by side on a Mac, each in its own git worktree, and tracks their progress and usage limits. The alternatives differ mainly in platform coverage, self-hosting, price, and whether they focus on running agents, reviewing their diffs, or scheduling them, so choose based on which of those jobs matters most.
