@manuhortet Thanks for asking about the comparison!

MGX takes a fundamentally different approach as a multi-agent system where specialized AI agents (Product Manager, Architect, Data Analyst, Engineer, etc.) collaborate like a real development team. While Devin operates as a single AI developer and Cursor enhances the IDE experience, MGX recreates the entire software development lifecycle with agents that have different expertise and goals - just like human teams.

This multi-agent architecture gives MGX several unique advantages:

  • More specialized expertise for each development phase

  • Reduced context pollution between different stages of development

  • Lower computational costs since agents only focus on their specific tasks

  • The ability to swap or upgrade individual agents independently

  • A more intuitive development process that mirrors how human teams actually work

Currently, MGX excels at web development with various frontend templates, Supabase backend integration, and data visualization capabilities. The system maintains context throughout iterations, allowing projects to continuously evolve.

Each tool has its strengths depending on your needs. What kind of development work are you looking to do? πŸš€

Congrats on the launch! Wondering, using this tool how long does it take to build up a brand new software? What kind of complexity of a software MGX can support? Thank you!
Mike
Maker

@jennieweng Thank you for your kind words and great questions! πŸ™Œ

The development timeline really depends on the project scope and complexity. While simpler projects like personal websites or data dashboards can be completed in hours to days, more complex applications might take longer. But here's the thing - the AI team works 24/7, and the quality of the output is worth the wait!

As for complexity, I'd love to show you what MGX can do! Check out our AppWorld (MGX) where you can see live examples. Currently, we're focusing on web development scenarios including personal portfolios, blogs, websites, online stores, aggregator pages, and subscription pages. For backend development, we support integration with Supabase. Additionally, MGX shows excellent performance in data analysis and data science-related scenarios.

Here are some cool examples that showcase our capabilities:

What kind of project do you have in mind? Would love to hear your thoughts and discuss how MGX could help bring it to life! πŸ’‘

@jennieweng I can share a personal example: Over a decade ago, I tried creating a personal blog. I spent months learning WordPress, Linode, PHP, JavaScript, and struggling to fix WordPress bugs while making themes responsive. After all that effort, I only managed to create a mediocre responsive page, which made me doubt my intelligence and question whether I was suited to be a product manager or UI designer.


Fast forward to today - I used MGX for just one hour and the AI agents were able to analyze my needs and create a complete personal website (https://chenglin-wu-card-preview-0i12md.mgx.dev/) without me writing a single line of code.

MGX currently handles web applications of moderate complexity well, with particular strengths in:

  • Frontend development with various templates and frameworks

  • Backend integration with Supabase

  • Data visualization capabilities

  • Full-stack web applications with standard database operations

The multi-agent architecture really shines for projects where you need multiple specialized skills working together - product management, architecture, frontend, backend, etc. What kind of software project are you thinking about building?

MGX sounds super ambitious β€” love the concept of turning AI agents into a full dev team that actually follows proper SOPs. Quick question: how much guidance does a user need to provide upfront? Do I have to write out a detailed spec, or can I just throw in a vague idea like β€œbuild me a blog for travel stories” and the team figures out the rest?


Also, curious how the AI handles back-and-forth revisions β€” do the agents keep track of previous changes, or does it feel like starting over each time? Would love to hear if anyone’s already built something cool with MGX!

Mike
Maker

@williamrobertscott 
Thanks for your great questions! You've touched on one of our core design principles - making development as effortless as possible!

The beauty of MGX is that you can indeed just share your vision, and let the AI team handle the execution. Simply tell them your goal clearly, and they'll figure out the details, propose features, and handle the implementation.

Here are some examples of what others have built with minimal input:

The best part? You can instantly remix any of these projects and customize them with your content. No need to start from scratch!

Alex
Maker

@williamrobertscott That's an excellent question. We have numerous examples in AppWorld where you can click "view chat" to see the prompts used. They vary tremendously - from one-line requests to detailed PRDs.

Humans are remarkably powerful communicators. Saying "Write a Linux" represents tens of millions of lines of code, while "Make a personal page" might mean hundreds. Yet humans can leverage precise language to accomplish either. We view natural language programming as a process of transforming "ambiguous to precise" instructions, maximizing leverage at each step. A decade ago, using C macros might give you a 10x text leverage (one byte controlling ten). Today, we're seeing 1000x or greater.

However, language contains many ambiguities. "Buy an apple" could refer to fruit or electronics, and involves considerations about price, quantity, weight, origin, logistics, amount, channel, brand, timing, quality control, organic status, expiration date, and countless combinations. AI doesn't yet have human-like preferences - it functions more as a probability-driven stateless function.

I encourage thoroughly exploring MGX alongside us to discover its boundaries and help improve it. Its leverage is incredibly high, with efficiency far exceeding humans for shorter code generation (roughly under 5,000 lines). I'll be publishing a blog post specifically addressing my thoughts on this soon.

Regarding revisions - yes, MGX agents do maintain context across iterations, allowing them to track previous changes rather than starting from scratch each time. This enables continuous refinement and development that builds on prior work.

Yan Bingbing

As a developer, I recently tried MGX, and I especially like its multi-intelligence collaboration model, which allows product managers, architects, engineers and other roles to be clearly defined, and makes the development process efficient and smooth. The only thing I wish to improve is the template selection and editing features, and I look forward to future versions that provide more templates and more flexible editing options.

Mike
Maker

@onbing Wow, great to hear your feedback! Actually, your needs are already covered in our 'Editor' feature - you can edit not just code, but also product documentation and technical design. Just hit save when you're done!

For templates, we're continuously expanding our collection. Meanwhile, you can explore our AppWorld to see all user-shared examples. Here are some popular ones you can instantly remix:

Just remix any of these and replace with your content - it's that simple! Would love to see what you create with these templates! πŸš€

Bob
Maker

@onbing Thank you for your in-depth experience with our product. As the architect in the MGX team, regarding the template selection issue you reported, I will continue to optimize and deliver the best selection results. And in AppWorld (inside https://mgx.dev/), you can choose one to remix rather than start from scratch to get a good generation result.

Alex
Maker

@onbing Thank you for your feedback! I'm glad you've enjoyed MGX's multi-agent collaboration model. It's great to hear that the clearly defined roles of product manager, architect, and engineer create an efficient development process.

I have good news regarding your suggestions - we're actually planning to revamp the homepage templates within days, and template selection will be updated in the next week or two. If you encounter any template selection errors, you can start a new chat to try again with minimal token cost when you're in the early conversation stages.

For editing functionality, you can currently use the remix feature as an alternative. You can select specific versions to remix either during the conversation or from the playback timeline's versions feature. We also have plans to introduce more convenient in-conversation editing options in future updates.

We appreciate your input as we continue to improve MGX. Is there anything specific about the template selection or editing functionality that you'd like to see in these upcoming updates?

MGX is a bold experiment, attempting to replace costly human labor in software development with AI agents. I’ve used MGX for some time now, but the current version is far from matureβ€”issues like excessive token consumption, a development process that struggles to converge (a problem exacerbated by MGX’s reliance solely on natural language interaction), and its apparent unpreparedness to handle a sizable user base have created friction. Server instability and a fragile payment mechanism drive many users to churn quickly after onboarding. While positioned against Devin, MGX falls short when compared to tools like Cursor and Trae, lacking the polish to compete. That said, for a startup team, MGX has already managed to pique user interest. Many of its current shortcomings will likely be addressed over time. It’s encouraging to see the MetaGPT team’s relentless efforts in this space, and I’m confident they’ll improve. The natural language programming arena is vast enough to accommodate multiple contenders.

Mike
Maker

@bertramray 
Thank you for this incredibly detailed and constructive feedback! Your insights are invaluable for our continuous improvement journey.

We've been actively addressing the points you raised through several iterations. Token consumption has been significantly optimized, server infrastructure expanded, and concurrent processing enhanced to provide a more stable experience.

Regarding the comparison with Cursor and Trae - you're right that MGX takes a distinct approach by focusing purely on natural language programming. This is a deliberate choice based on our conviction that natural language will be the future of human-AI collaboration in development. While this path presents unique challenges, it also opens up new possibilities.

We've also introduced practical features to bridge the gap between natural language and traditional coding:

  • The 'inspect' function enables one-click resource switching and immediate access to element code references for targeted modifications

  • Our 'editor module' supports both direct code editing and documentation updates, providing flexibility when needed

Your observation about the market being large enough for multiple approaches resonates deeply with us. We're committed to our vision while continuously refining our execution based on valuable feedback like yours.

We'd love to hear more about your experience and specific use cases. Feel free to reach out to our team directly - your insights help shape our development priorities. πŸ™

David
Maker

@bertramray Thank you for your continued deep dive into MGXβ€”your insights are incredibly valuable! We're doubling down on refining the development process to improve convergence and boost success rates. Think of it as giving our AI a bit more β€˜wisdom’ so it doesn’t burn through tokens like an over-caffeinated coder. β˜•πŸ’¨

To make MGX smarter, we’re working on embedding more project-level development insights into the systemβ€”helping it not just execute, but also think and learn like an experienced engineer. At the same time, we're optimizing trajectory self-learning and iteration during the development process, so MGX can adapt and improve dynamically.

We’re also excited to integrate more of our existing academic research into the system to level up performance such as Self-Supervised Prompt Optimization,FACT: Examining the Effectiveness of Iterative Context Rewriting for Multi-fact Retrieval and AFlow: Automating Agentic Workflow Generation.
Appreciate your patience and feedbackβ€”it keeps us on our toes and pushing forward!

MGX looks super interesting! How does it handle collaboration between different ai agents to ensure efficiency and avoid redundant tasks?
Mike
Maker

@hehe_z 
Thank you for this insightful question! MGX leverages MetaGPT's proven multi-agent collaboration framework, which has garnered 30k+ stars on GitHub.

The key is our structured SOP (Standard Operating Procedure) system. Each AI agent has clearly defined roles and responsibilities - like a PM writing PRDs, an Architect designing system architecture, and Engineers implementing code. They communicate through a standardized protocol, sharing context and outputs seamlessly.

To prevent redundancy, we've implemented a task dependency system where agents coordinate their work based on clear prerequisites and deliverables. For example, the Engineer won't start coding until the Architect has finalized the technical design, ensuring efficient workflow.

Would love to hear your thoughts on this approach!

Launching soon!

This is super interesting! Would it work in tandem with an actual developer where you can divide tasks between agents and the dev or is it more of a hands off where this is the full dev team?

Bob
Maker

@alan_rivera Thank you for your attention. You've raised a very important point about human-AI collaboration. Our starting point is to have the Agent Team automatically help you realize your dream with your chat, but we've also introduced a human-AI collaboration mode. When the agent encounters difficult decisions, it will seek human assistance and work better with humans to solve the problems encountered.

Mike
Maker

@alan_rivera 
Thank you for this great question! MGX is flexible and can work in both scenarios:

  1. As a collaborative tool alongside human developers - you can use specific agents for certain tasks (like having the PM agent create PRDs while developers focus on implementation) or use features like 'inspect' and 'editor' to enhance your workflow

  2. As a complete development team - where the AI agents handle the entire process from requirements to implementation

This flexibility allows teams to choose the integration level that best suits their needs. Would love to hear how you're planning to use it! πŸš€
