## About

Based in Ankara, Turkey, and founded in 2026, Herdr, Inc. develops an open-source runtime and terminal workspace manager for AI coding agents. The company was founded by Can Celik. Herdr’s platform enables developers to manage multiple coding agents across different projects and machines while keeping their terminal sessions active in the background. Its background server maintains persistent terminal sessions and monitors whether coding agents are working, blocked, completed, or idle, allowing users to reconnect to their sessions from local or remote machines. The platform also provides a command-line interface, a local socket API, integrations, and plugins that enable developers to control and coordinate agent-based development workflows.

In September 2026, Herdr, Inc. raised USD 6 million in seed funding led by Bessemer Venture Partners, with participation from Y Combinator and e2vc. The company will use the funds to enhance the performance, stability, and scalability of its runtime platform, while also making it faster, more robust, and more extensible. The company intends to build a specialized team comprising professionals with expertise in Rust, terminal development, and AI agent technology to support the continued development of its open-source runtime.
