CodeGrid vs. iTerm2

iTerm2 is the gold-standard macOS terminal emulator — tabs, split panes, profiles, search, and GPU rendering. CodeGrid isn't a terminal emulator; it's an agent workspace. Instead of tabs and splits, every session gets a pane on a free-form 2D canvas, and CodeGrid tracks what each agent is doing so you never miss a prompt.

iTerm2 is a fantastic general-purpose terminal. CodeGrid is purpose-built for multi-agent AI coding: a canvas, session awareness, and Git tooling in one app. Many people use both — iTerm2 for everyday shell work, CodeGrid when they're running a fleet of agents.
