## Summary

Meta has acquired Conductor, an AI coding startup that deploys multiple agents into parallel workspaces so software engineers can work on separate parts of a project. Conductor's core features will keep working as before until early next year, but its cloud service shuts down on November 20, after which user cloud data will be deleted. Meta confirmed the acquisition to TechCrunch but did not provide further details about the deal.
