1DevTool vs Paseo

Integrated dev toolchain vs cross-platform agent orchestrator

Last updated August 26, 2026

Short answer

1DevTool for Charts + a full desktop toolchain on Windows too; Paseo for free OSS with native mobile/web clients and on-device voice.

•1DevTool: Charts/pipelines, Conversation Mode, 23-engine DB — From $29; macOS/Windows/Linux
•Paseo: free OSS, 34+ providers, native iOS/Android + web, voice control
•Both use worktrees and BYO credentials
•Pick Paseo for true mobile parity; pick 1DevTool for DB/HTTP/Docker in-desktop

1DevTool

1DevTool orchestrates 18 CLI agents with Charts, teams, pipelines, Conversation Mode, and rate-limit fallbacks — then keeps the toolchain local: Monaco, 23-engine DB, HTTP, browser profiles, Docker, and phone remote. macOS, Windows, and Linux. From $29 one-time.

Paseo

Paseo is a free, open-source, self-hosted orchestrator for AI coding agents that runs on desktop, web, iOS, Android, and the terminal — all with feature parity. A local daemon manages your agents while native clients connect to it, so you can start a task at your desk and check in from your phone. It supports 34+ providers (Claude Code, Codex, Copilot, OpenCode, Pi, Cursor, Gemini CLI, and more), isolates each agent in a Git worktree, and adds port-less dev servers, on-device voice control, a fully scriptable CLI, and an end-to-end-encrypted relay for remote access. No telemetry, tracking, or forced logins.
