Tabnine

Privacy-first AI code completion that can run on-prem or in your VPC.

Our review

Tabnine was one of the first AI code-completion tools and now leads with enterprise privacy: models can be deployed privately, your code is never used for training, and it offers models trained only on permissively licensed code — a comfort for compliance teams.

Completion quality and ecosystem no longer beat Copilot or Cursor, and the individual plan is less compelling. But for companies whose code cannot leave the network, Tabnine's private deployment and compliance guarantees remain a rare selling point.
