Comparison
NewAgentsHub vs OpenAI Codex
Codex comes with a ChatGPT plan, which makes it the cheapest way into a strong coding agent for many people. NewAgentsHub does not replace it — it runs it: the Codex CLI is preinstalled in every project's terminal, beside a live preview, on a project you can ship as a web, desktop or mobile app.
OpenAI Codex runs inside NewAgentsHub
The Codex CLI is preinstalled in every NewAgentsHub sandbox. Type codex in a project's terminal; once you let the coding CLIs use your keys, it runs on your saved OpenAI key.
