How it works
The platform supports several agent styles, from a general coding agent to one focused on fixing GitHub issues. Developers use it to automate routine work, and researchers use it as a base for building new agents. Because it is open source, you can inspect how it works and change it to fit your needs.
OpenHands is free and open source; you pay only for the model API usage you choose. It suits developers who want a capable, transparent agent platform and are comfortable setting it up themselves.
