Category	AI Coding	AI Coding
Pricing Plans	3 listed plans	5 listed plans
Starting Price	Pay-as-you-go	$20/month; individual software development agents across Desktop, CLI, SDK, cloud and local background agents
Key Features	• Frontier-model agent grounded in Sourcegraph's code graph • Monorepo-scale code intelligence: references, call sites, dependencies • Shared threads between VS Code and CLI	• Droid software development agents for implementation and maintenance work • Desktop, CLI, and SDK access for agent-native engineering workflows • Cloud and local background agents for asynchronous coding tasks

✓Monorepo code-graph grounding beats embedding-only competitors on large repos.
✓Pass-through token pricing rewards heavy use instead of capping it.
✓Shared threads across VS Code and CLI match how senior engineers actually work.

✗No managed model — you bring API keys, which is friction for team buyers.
✗VS Code extension is newer and less polished than the established Cody extension.
✗CLI is powerful but documentation still lags the product roadmap.

✓Pricing page exposes real self-serve plan prices: $20, $100, and $200 per month
✓Strong developer workflow coverage across desktop app, CLI, and SDK
✓Cloud background agents can take work out of the local IDE bottleneck
✓Usage statistics and agent-readiness dashboard help teams manage adoption

✗High-value team and enterprise details still require sales conversations
✗Coding-agent output must be reviewed; it is not a replacement for code ownership, tests, or security review
✗Plus and Max can become expensive if many engineers need access
