Pricing
EnterpriseSourcegraph Cody previously offered three tiers: Cody Free (unlimited autocomplete, 200 chat messages/month), Cody Pro ($9\u2013$19/user/month), and Cody Enterprise. On July 23, 2025, Sourcegraph permanently discontinued the Free and Pro plans, consolidating Cody as an enterprise-only product. Cody Enterprise is the sole remaining plan, reported at approximately $59/user/month on an annual contract. Some bundled Sourcegraph platform packages start around $16,000/year with included AI-feature credits. All pricing is negotiated directly with Sourcegraph's sales team and varies by organization size, deployment model, and contract length. Enterprise includes admin-selectable LLMs (Claude, GPT, Gemini), SOC 2 Type II compliance, SAML SSO, RBAC, audit logs, full Sourcegraph platform integration (Code Search, Batch Changes, Code Insights), self-hosted or BYO cloud deployment for air-gapped environments, and guaranteed no training on customer code. Individual developers can use Sourcegraph's separate Amp product (currently free) as an alternative.
FreemiumCodeium launched with a genuinely free tier for individual developers — unlimited code completions, chat, and search across 70+ languages and 40+ IDEs with no time limit or credit cap. Enterprise plans (custom pricing) added on-premises deployment, SOC 2 compliance, SSO, and zero code retention. After launching the Windsurf Editor in November 2024, the company introduced paid tiers: Free ($0) with unlimited Tab autocomplete and a light agent quota; Pro ($15/month, later raised to $20/month in March 2026) with full model access, standard refreshing agent quota, and Cascade; Teams ($30/user/month); and Enterprise ($60/user/month) with SSO, 1,000 prompt credits, and enhanced security. Following Cognition AI's acquisition and the June 2026 rebrand to Devin Desktop, pricing is now managed under Cognition's Devin plan structure: Free ($0), Pro ($20/month), Max ($200/month), Teams ($80/month + $40/seat), and Enterprise (custom). The codeium.com/pricing URL now redirects to devin.ai/pricing.

Sourcegraph Cody

Sourcegraph Cody Pros & Cons

Pros

  • Best-in-class multi-repository context — retrieves relevant code from across entire enterprise codebases, not just the open file
  • Deep integration with Sourcegraph Code Search, Code Navigation, and Batch Changes for a unified code intelligence platform
  • Admin-level LLM flexibility — choose Claude, GPT, or Gemini per use case without being locked to one model provider
  • Guaranteed no-training on customer code with SOC 2 Type II, self-hosted, and air-gapped deployment options
  • Trusted by over 1M engineers at Databricks, Plaid, Uber, Lyft, Reddit, GE, Dropbox, and Fortune 500 companies
  • Engineers report saving 5–6 hours per week and writing code 2x faster according to Sourcegraph customer data

Cons

  • Cody Free and Pro discontinued July 2025 — no self-serve individual tier; enterprise procurement via sales only
  • Pricing starts at ~$59/user/month on annual contract, significantly more expensive than GitHub Copilot or Cursor for small teams
  • Multi-repo context only works for codebases indexed in your Sourcegraph instance — disconnected repos are invisible to Cody
  • No bring-your-own-key (BYOK) model access for individual users — model selection is admin-controlled at the enterprise level
  • Requires Sourcegraph platform deployment — not a lightweight plugin for teams not already running Sourcegraph
  • Sales-led procurement only adds friction for teams that want to trial the product quickly without a contract
Codeium

Codeium Pros & Cons

Pros

  • Genuinely unlimited free tier for individual developers — no credit limits or trial expiry
  • Broadest IDE coverage of any AI coding tool with 40+ editor integrations at launch
  • Rapid iteration: went from plugin to agentic IDE and $100M ARR in under 3 years
  • Enterprise-grade security with on-prem/VPC deployment, SOC 2, and zero code retention options
  • Cascade/Windsurf Editor introduced flow-aware multi-file agentic coding before competitors
  • Backed by top-tier investors and reached $1.25B unicorn valuation in just 2 years

Cons

  • Rebranded twice (Codeium → Windsurf → Devin Desktop) creating confusion and instability for users
  • Original Codeium extension identity sunset — codeium.com now redirects to Devin/Cognition
  • Pro pricing rose from $15 to $20/month in March 2026, removing its budget pricing edge over Cursor
  • Cascade agent fully retired July 1, 2026 — replaced by Devin Local under new ownership
  • Heavy agentic workflows require Pro plan; free tier agent quota is limited
  • Brand owned by Cognition AI (Devin), not the original Codeium/Windsurf founding team
