01 — Overview

What is Tabnine?

Tabnine is one of the earliest AI coding assistants. It provides code completion, a chat panel, test and documentation generation and works inside VS Code, JetBrains IDEs, Visual Studio and Eclipse.

Its main selling point is control. Enterprises can deploy it in their own cloud, on-premises or even in an air-gapped environment, and choose which underlying models to use. That makes it a common pick for regulated industries that cannot send code to a public service.
