Choose your agent. Choose your model. Keep your code.

Rigless is built around control over your coding agent, your model provider, and your source code.

Choosing an AI coding workspace is also a decision about the tools you can use tomorrow. You may want another model provider, a different agent, or a new place to run your application. Rigless is built to keep those choices available.

That is the product's central promise: control over your agent, your model provider, and your source code. Hosted Linux workspaces and browser access make those choices practical.

Keep your choice of agent

Hosted workspaces support Rigless, Codex, opencode, Pi, and Oh My Pi. You can begin with an included model or connect a supported provider key. The controls and available models follow the agent you choose.

That choice matters when you already have a workflow you like, or want to try another agent on the same kind of task. Agents differ in their controls, model support, and conversation state. Rigless presents the combinations it supports, with files, previews, and development tools available around the selected agent.

Keep your choice of model provider

Start with an included model or connect a supported provider key. When you use your own key, your provider handles its model charges and rate limits. Rigless's workspace, storage, and publishing limits still apply.

Your source files remain your project when you choose a different supported model. You can change the model doing the work without starting the code again.

Keep a usable copy of the code

Download your workspace when you need a separate copy. Hosted projects can also use GitHub: work on a branch, inspect the diff, and open a pull request in the repository you control.

The exported source can be used outside Rigless with the dependencies and configuration the project requires. Moving a running service may also require its production data, secrets, and external-service setup; a source export alone does not move those for you.

Portability should be something you can exercise. Export a Free project and run it locally, or use your repository to retain the work and choose where to use it next.

Give the project the tools it needs

A hosted project has an isolated Linux workspace. The agent can install dependencies, run a development server, execute checks, and work with a repository. You can open the terminal and inspect the files and diff yourself.

The useful result might be a bug fix with a pull request, a working prototype, or an application at a public URL. The tools should help you reach that result and give you enough evidence to review it.

Work from a laptop, phone, or another browser. The saved project and conversation stay with your Rigless account, so you can return to the work from another device.

Start with a small project for free

Free projects use the built-in agent to edit HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and other browser assets. You preview the result in your browser and can publish one branded static site. The editable project stays private and follows your account across devices.

Free does not allocate a Linux workspace. Projects that need package installation, servers, GitHub workflows, or automated runtime checks use hosted compute, starting at $10/month.

Every plan includes limited AI usage. Supported provider keys let you use your own model account, with its own charges and limits.

Try building and exporting a small app on Free, choose an agent and model, or work with your GitHub repository.
