| Pricing | Not published · free tier: Not published — unverified; aggregators contradict each other on whether a free tier exists | USD $20/month (Pro) · free tier: $0 — light agent quota, limited model availability, unlimited inline edits, unlimited Tab completions, 1 member, up to 10 concurrent sessions |
| Pricing model | Subscription | Subscription with usage quotas and API-priced overage |
| Best for | Regulated or IP-sensitive enterprises (healthcare, defense, finance) that need on-prem or private deployment, model flexibility and documented compliance, and have platform engineers to absorb a non-trivial rollout. | Individual developers and VS Code-native small teams who want a full agentic IDE with multi-provider model access at $20/month, and heavy autocomplete users who benefit from unlimited free Tab. |
| Avoid if | You are an individual developer or small team, work primarily over Remote SSH or WSL, need deep whole-repository reasoning on large complex projects, or want strong public peer validation and transparent published pricing before buying. | You need naming and roadmap stability for a long procurement cycle, do very large-context work, require a trial before committing, or need a published Enterprise price and predictable per-seat Teams cost. |

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.
