HiveTerm vs Orca
Orca runs CLI agents in parallel, each isolated in its own git worktree. They race on a task and you merge the winner. HiveTerm is a workspace: the agents and the stack share one window, a routine fires into the live conversation, and a phone app pairs with the desktop when you leave.

Where HiveTerm wins
- The agents and the dev server share one window. A routine fires into the conversation you already have, instead of five worktrees and four leftovers.
- Your whole dev stack, servers, watchers, workers, runs as managed bees from one committed hive.yml, not just agent sessions.
- Transparent pricing: a generous free tier and a flat Pro plan, instead of free-now with enterprise pricing behind a sales call.
When Orca is the better pick
- You want git-worktree isolation per task as the core workflow, with agents racing on the same prompt.
- You want a built-in browser around those worktree sessions.
