thread0 is a desktop Agent OS that runs Claude and GPT (Codex) sessions side by side using the subscriptions you already pay for. When one account reaches its usage limit, hand the same session to another account you own and keep the project folder, conversation and unfinished task together. Pair a phone (thread0 Remote) to watch progress and approve tools over end-to-end encrypted connections. Free for individuals and teams up to 5; provider subscriptions, charges, terms and limits stay exactly as they are.
