Nova vs Claude Code
Terminal coding agent
Claude Code is a powerful agent that lives in your terminal. Nova is a visual, chat-to-deployed-site builder — same idea of an AI doing the work, without the command line.

What Claude Code is great at
Claude Code is a remarkable terminal-native coding agent. It reads your repo, runs commands, edits files and ships PRs with real autonomy. For engineers comfortable on the command line, it's hard to beat.
Where Nova is different
Nova brings that same agentic build power to people who don't live in a terminal. There's nothing to install and no commands to run — you describe what you want in a chat, and Nova plans, builds, self-reviews and deploys it to a live URL. It also handles the parts a terminal agent leaves to you: hosting, custom domains, and a multilingual UI.
