⚡️Warp 2.0: the Agentic Development Environment - Zach Lloyd and Ben Holmes
Jun 25, 2025 · 52:23
Warp CEO Zach Lloyd and engineer Ben Holmes debut Warp 2.0, rebranding from an AI terminal to an Agentic Development Environment (ADE) with a state-of-the-art coding agent that rivals Claude Code and Cursor. The episode demonstrates Warp's new universal input that auto-detects English commands and terminal input, voice-driven agent workflows, multi-threaded agents running in tabs, inline diff editing, MCP support, and REPL translations for SQL and Postgres. Lloyd explains the design philosophy of keeping a terminal-like UX while adding agent management features, and discusses pricing changes (Pro now 2,500 requests, Turbo 10,000, plus usage-based credits) and the challenge of subscription vs. usage-based models. Warp has nearly 600,000 active users with weekly revenue growth of 5–15%, and the team positions itself as a model-agnostic layer above Anthropic, Google, and OpenAI, offering deeper integration than ChatGPT or Claude desktop apps.
