The honest take

A frontier coding agent that runs threads on remote "orbs" you can steer from web, terminal or phone, with bring-your-own models.

Best for: Developers who want long-running cloud agents and already pay for ChatGPT, Claude or API keys they can plug in

Where it falls short: Free Hobby tier has no included hosted orb time (pay-as-you-go), and the jump from Megawatt ($20) to Gigawatt ($200) is steep

What you actually get

Should you pay for it?

The free tier of Amp is good enough for casual use. Pay $20/mo only when you start hitting daily caps or need access to the better models.
