Today we released Magic as Open Source, under the terms of the MIT license. The MIT license is the most permissive license on earth, allowing you to basically use our entire platform for free, without having to pay us a dime, or even ask us for permission.
This implies that what a lot of people out there are referring to as "the best AI Agent software development platform on Earth" is starting as of today 100% free of charge and open source.
Not only are we throwing in the platform for free, but during a transition period, we'll even give you generative-AI capabilities, allowing you to write natural language to generate backend API code. Below is an example.
/*
* HTTP endpoint taking filtering and paging arguments, selecting
* records from chinook database and its Artist table, in addition to
* all associated Album records.
* Use ArtistId as your primary key and foreign key reference.
* Only allow admin users to execute the endpoint.
*/
The point being that you just create an empty file as the one above, then tell the LLM to; "Implement my comment", and some few seconds later you've got working code covering that particular use case.
