PricingClinePass: USD $4.99 first month, then USD $9.99/month · free tier: Open Source plan is free for individual developers: VS Code extension, CLI, client-side architecture, model inference at cost or BYOK, MCP Marketplace, multi-root workspaces, community supportNot published — third-party sources conflict irreconcilably ($19/mo, $30/user/mo, $38/user/mo monthly vs $30 annual) · free tier: Unverified — one source reports a free tier with 250 LLM credits/month and 30 org-wide PR reviews/month, while two others state there is no permanently free plan, only a 14-day trial
Pricing modelFreemium open source plus bring-your-own-key usage-based inference, with an optional low-cost subscriptionCredit-based (sources conflict; seat-based pricing also reported)
Best forTeams with existing model provider contracts (Bedrock, Vertex, Anthropic direct) who want to reuse that inference spend, and security-conscious orgs that need code execution to stay client-side while restricting which providers developers may use.Engineering teams on GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket or Azure DevOps that want automated test coverage plus AI PR review from a single vendor and can absorb a meaningful share of false-positive review comments.
Avoid if You need a predictable fixed monthly bill, are a solo developer whose API spend would exceed roughly $20–30/month, are a JetBrains-first shop unwilling to buy Enterprise, or require responsive commercial billing support. You primarily want fast, low-noise inline completion, need deterministic lint/style enforcement or bundled SAST/secrets/IaC scanning, or have unpredictable PR volume and prefer flat per-seat billing.

A higher TOP SCORE means more of the evidence favours that platform on this methodology — it is not a recommendation, and it does not account for your specific requirements. Advertisers are never declared the winner of a comparison.
