Letta vs OpenHands

Our take

Pick Letta if engineers who will run the CLI or the web app and already have an API key or a coding plan. Pick OpenHands if teams who want a coding agent on a repo, locally or as hosted SaaS, and will bring a model key. Skip OpenHands if people who want an IDE fork with Tab (Cursor) or a browser app builder (Replit).
