Questions, answered.
What people ask before they subscribe, answered plainly. If your question is not here, write to us — a person reads it.
What the parts are
A farm is machines, the lanes that work your backlog on them, and an optional hub. Three words, and this is what each one means.
What is a lane?
A lane is one project on one machine. It reads your backlog in order, takes the next item it can work, and runs that item to the end — in its own Claude Code session, on its own branch and worktree — before it takes another. A lane works one item at a time, so more lanes mean more items at once.
What is a machine?
A machine — a host — is a computer you already own with the farm installed on it: a Linux box for most of the work, a Mac for iOS and macOS builds because it is the only machine that can sign them, a Windows machine when you ship Windows software. Your code, your git server and your tests stay on it, and nothing on the build path goes through us.
What does the hub add?
Reach, and nothing else. Hosts, lanes, sessions, tests and the commits on your main branch all work with the hub switched off. With it, the app and any browser get to your farm from outside your network, and what the farm builds can be deployed for you. It comes with the hub tiers; a farm without it is still a whole farm.
Licences, money and your code
What you pay us for, what you pay Anthropic for, and where your work actually sits.
What happens when a licence lapses?
The farm goes idle cleanly. No new project, item or session starts, and work in progress is stopped properly — the lanes just stop. Nothing is deleted: your repositories, backlogs and history stay exactly where they are, on your machines. Renew, and it picks up where it left off.
Who pays for model usage?
You do, straight to Anthropic. Bring your own Anthropic subscription or API key: we never resell tokens and no tier marks them up. The pricing page says what to budget per lane per month. What you pay us is the licence for the farm itself.

On your machines, and only there. Your repositories, your git server, the worktrees, the test runs and the build output all sit on the hosts you installed the farm on. If you take the hub, it carries the app's requests to your farm; it is not a place your code is copied to.
Still wondering?
Write to us and a person answers — no ticket system. Pricing, a licence, whether the machines you have are enough: ask.
