As a tl;dr there is very little reason to pay for Tabnine. Copilot is far superior in the realm of paid products, and Codeium is comparable to Copilot.
- brightball 4y agoSolid comparison and interesting read for sure. What exactly is the business model though? It's always a red flag when "privacy respecting" and "free" are bundled together. I definitely _want_ to pay something for that type of service.
- aunch 4y agoWe answer this partially in the "How do you plan to make money?" question in our FAQ: https://www.codeium.com/faq https://www.codeium.com/faq tl;dr potential pro plan for additional features (keep autocomplete free) and enterprise offering
- brightball 4y agoNice! I see it listed in the FAQ and that makes more sense. I'll sign up and take it for a spin.
- elashri 4y agoWhat are the plans for Codeium to be sustainable? I don't think how it will be free forever if it really competes with Copilot.
- aunch 4y agoWe actually worked out the math - we don't use any external APIs like OpenAI (use our own models) so those costs aren't prohibitive, and we have a bunch of experience as a team building scalable ML systems, so we have driven down the serving costs by a lot.
