Pricing
PaidAugment Code uses a usage-based pricing model with two tiers. The Business plan costs $100/month flat for up to 50 seats. This includes $100 of pooled monthly usage across LLM inference (billed at provider list price + 40% service fee), Context Engine API calls, and Cosmos compute. Usage is shared across the whole team. Top-ups are available pay-as-you-go at any time; top-ups expire 12 months after purchase. The Enterprise plan has custom pricing for teams over 50 seats. It adds custom usage limits and top-up rates, volume-based annual discounts, SSO/OIDC/SCIM, Customer Managed Encryption Keys (CMEK), ISO/IEC 42001 compliance, SIEM integration, data residency options, granular audit trails, multi-region compute, unlimited concurrent sessions, and a dedicated customer success manager with priority support. All paid plans include a guarantee of no AI training on customer data. A 7-day free trial is available. Previously Augment charged $60/active user/month under a named-seat model before switching to flat/usage-based pricing in October 2025.
PaidTabnine offers two enterprise plans on annual subscriptions. The Code Assistant Platform is $39/user/month and includes AI code completions, IDE chat (Claude, GPT, Gemini, Meta, Mistral), Jira integration, flexible deployment (SaaS/VPC/on-prem/air-gapped), zero code retention, SSO, IP indemnification, provenance tracking, centralized admin analytics, RBAC, and priority support. The Tabnine Agentic Platform is $59/user/month and adds the Enterprise Context Engine (unlimited connections to GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, Perforce P4, Jira, Confluence), autonomous agentic workflows, MCP tool integrations (Git, Jira, Confluence, Docker, package managers, CI/CD), the Tabnine CLI agent, and governance controls for MCP and per-user pricing thresholds. Headless CI/CD agents are an optional add-on. When using Tabnine-provided LLM access, token consumption is billed at actual LLM provider prices + 5% handling fee. Unlimited usage is included when using your own on-premises or self-managed cloud LLM endpoint. No self-serve trial; all plans require a sales demo.

AI coding agent with deep Context Engine for large enterprise codebases

Augment Code

Augment Code Pros & Cons

Pros

  • Deepest codebase context of any AI coding tool — Context Engine indexes 400K+ files with semantic graphs, not just open tabs
  • #1 on SWE-bench Pro at 51.80% (Auggie CLI) — top publicly benchmarked coding agent score at publication
  • First and only AI coding assistant with ISO/IEC 42001 certification alongside SOC 2 Type II and CMEK
  • Usage-based flat pricing ($100/mo for up to 50 seats) is more predictable than per-seat models for variable teams
  • Cosmos platform covers the full SDLC — from ticket to PR, code review, tests, incidents, migrations, and onboarding
  • Trusted by Adobe, MongoDB, Webflow, Snyk, Pure Storage, Crypto.com, Tekion, and DXC across enterprise codebases

Cons

  • No free individual tier — Business plan starts at $100/month with a team minimum; sole developers pay full price for low usage
  • Pricing changed three times in 18 months (2023–2025), causing some developer community backlash and unpredictability concerns
  • IDE support limited to VS Code and JetBrains — no standalone IDE, no Neovim full feature parity, no Visual Studio
  • Closed-source with no self-hosting option — all computation runs on Augment's infrastructure or Enterprise cloud tenants
  • Context Engine first-run indexing takes 15–30 minutes on large repos before initial suggestions become fully accurate
  • Enterprise plan requires sales contact for pricing — no public list price above the Business tier
Tabnine

Tabnine Pros & Cons

Pros

  • The original AI coding assistant with 8+ years of enterprise production experience and the most mature platform in the category
  • Only AI coding tool offering fully air-gapped deployment with zero code retention — critical for defense, healthcare, finance, and government
  • IP indemnification with provenance and attribution — every suggestion is traceable to its training source for full license compliance
  • Enterprise Context Engine builds a live organizational knowledge graph enabling true system-level AI reasoning beyond document retrieval
  • Multi-LLM flexibility — choose Claude, GPT, Gemini, Meta, Mistral, or your own on-premises LLM with no vendor lock-in
  • Gartner Magic Quadrant Visionary 2025 and InfoWorld Technology of the Year 2025; trusted by Samsung, Ericsson, Raytheon, and GE Healthcare

Cons

  • Acquired by Tricentis on July 30, 2026 — product roadmap and pricing continuity depend on new ownership direction
  • No free individual tier as of 2026 — pricing starts at $39/user/month (Code Assistant) or $59/user/month (Agentic Platform) on annual contracts
  • Higher price point than GitHub Copilot ($19/user/month) and Cursor ($20/user/month) for teams that don't need enterprise-grade security or air-gapping
  • Enterprise Context Engine requires onboarding time to index and structure large codebases before reaching full accuracy
  • Smaller developer community mindshare than GitHub Copilot or Cursor — fewer third-party tutorials and integrations
