Thanks! Sure, I posted this comment in a Reddit thread a couple days ago to a user who asked the same question (and I added one additional point): First I should say that it’s been a few months at least since I’ve used aider, so it’s possible my impression of it is a bit outdated. Also I’m a big fan of it and drew a lot of inspiration from it. That said: Plandex is more focused on building larger and more complex functionality that involves multiple steps, whereas aider is more geared toward making a single change at a time. Plandex has an isolated, version-controlled sandbox where tentative changes are accumulated. I believe with aider you have to apply or discard each change individually? Plandex has diff review TUI where changes can be viewed side-by-side, and optionally rejected, a bit like GitHub’s PR review UI. Plandex has branches that allow for exploring multiple approaches. aider has cool voice input features that Plandex lacks. aider’s maintainer Paul has done a lot of benchmarking of file update strategies. While I think Plandex’s approach is better suited to larger and more complex functionality, aider’s unified diff approach may have higher accuracy for a single change. I hope to do benchmarking work on this in the future. aider requires Python and is installed via pip, while Plandex runs from a single binary with no dependencies, so Plandex installation is arguably easier overall, especially if you aren't a Python dev. I’m sure I’m missing some other differences but those are the main ones that come to mind.
