Is octomind free to use?

Yes - it is Apache-2.0 licensed, so it is free for commercial use with attribution.

Do I need a paid API to use it?

Octomind vs other coding agents?

Its differentiators are the single Rust binary and MCP-native tooling. It is much earlier-stage than established coding agents - choose it for the architecture, not the maturity.
