Basic

Tabnine AI code assistant: Basic plan

Tabnine Basic is our free plan that includes many capabilities such as access to AI agents, advanced personalization features, and the ability to use powerful models like Claude 3.5 Sonnet and GPT-4o as the basis for Tabnine’s code generation and validation features.

Tabnine Basic capabilities

The table below covers the capabilities available on Tabnine’s Basic plan. To unlock all these capabilities, you need to register for Tabnine and be logged in. Registering for Tabnine involves creating an account and providing us email address β€” no credit card is required. Registration is necessary to protect from abuse of the platform, and we remain committed to your privacy and our zero data retention approach.

If you’re not ready to register, don’t worry. Tabnine Basic will still provide the best-in-class AI code completion and inline code generation that the company pioneered.

Note: Tabnine uses a local model for midline code completions on the Basic plan. This is a smaller model that’s ideal for shorter code suggestions. All our paid plans use a high-performance Tabnine model for midline code completions.\

Usage limits for third-party models

To keep our costs in check, we’ve implemented daily limits on the usage of third-party models (Claude 3.5 Sonnet and GPT-4o). The quota varies from 2–4 queries per day. If you hit these limits, you can wait until the next day for the quota to reset. Alternatively, you can switch to Tabnine’s proprietary models (Tabnine Protected and Tabnine + Mistral) and continue using the AI chat features.

These limitations are only for chat interactions and inline actions and don’t affect our advanced AI code completions. (Our AI code completions use Tabnine's proprietary model, not Claude 3.5 Sonnet or GPT-4o.)
