Terminals

Otty is a native, GPU-accelerated terminal, designed for anyone who cares about the feel of every keystroke — minimal, fast, and beautiful. A terminal worth using on its own. And when you run several code agents like Claude Code or Codex side by side, Otty keeps it calm and clear — tuned for the agents you already run. Optimization, not complexity.

Hey Product Hunt — maker of Otty here.

Funny thing: I was never really a terminal person. Then I started leaning hard on code agents, and overnight the terminal became where I spent my entire day.

My ask was simple — a clean, beautiful, Ghostty-like terminal with vertical tabs. But everything I tried did the opposite: to bolt agents on, they piled in buttons, panels, and labels until the terminal itself felt heavier and worse to use. Most "AI terminals" just staple AI on top and never improve the terminal underneath.

So I built Otty — tuned for code agents, without making the UI more complex. I use it every single day, so I've poured that time into the terminal itself: smooth caret & scrolling, clickable links & file paths, session recovery (yes — including Claude Code and tmux sessions), open-quickly, drag-and-drop split panes, proper box-drawing, and a lot more. The goal was a terminal that's genuinely good to use — not one that only exists to babysit agents.

If you run code agents: what finally made you switch terminals — or what's holding you back? That's exactly what I'm building around. 🙏
