Codeium is a free AI coding assistant from the company behind Windsurf, built for individual developers and teams who want autocomplete, chat, and agentic edits without a subscription. It runs as an extension inside VS Code, JetBrains, and other editors, and supports more than 30 programming languages across macOS, Windows, and Linux.
Core Features
- Inline autocomplete that predicts and fills code across 30-plus languages.
- Chat sidebar with full codebase context and multi-turn conversations.
- Command mode for natural-language refactoring applied directly to selected code.
- Best-in-class free tier with no meaningful capability limits for individuals.
- Scored within 5% of paid alternatives on the HumanEval Python and TypeScript benchmarks.
Use Cases
- Solo developers and students who want top-tier AI help at zero cost.
- Startups watching burn who need a capable assistant without per-seat fees.
- Teams already in VS Code or JetBrains wanting a drop-in AI layer.
Pricing
Free for individual developers. Codeium Teams is $12 per seat per month, and Enterprise pricing is custom. The free tier covers the core autocomplete, chat, and Command features.
Our Take
Best for cost-conscious developers who want a genuine Cursor alternative without the bill. The trade-off is that heavy agentic workflows and advanced models sit behind the paid Teams plan rather than the free tier.
