Tabnine Pricing Overview

TabNine might be a good option for industry applications that have to be aware of security and cannot share their data to remote servers. I am a private user that has been using this software for the past 2 years and have seen the progress of TabNine. It does what it promises but thats about it.

I never write reviews but after canceling my subscription and realizing that the free version offers the same as the pro version, I have to write something.

So what does TabNine offer?

1. A coding ChatBot that automatically loads your project into context. You can use all common Chat APIs such as OpenAI, Claude etc. but I am pretty sure that the context is heavily limited and the overall performance is dialed down to save resources. The answers are much worse than directly interacting with OpenAI API. So why not directly spend the 20$ on ChatGPT Plus? Thats what I am doing now.

2. A inline completion assistant. The inline completion assistant has only minorly improved and is far from the state-of-the-art. Actually, it is the one part of TabNine which sold me for it but unfortunately did not improve in the last two years. When I cancelled my subscription, I also realized I get very similar quality of inline completions with the free version.

So my big question: Why should you buy TabNine as a private person when you can buy ChatGPT Plus and have much more value for your money? I dont know.

Also a side note: After being fed up with the inline-completions. I wrote me own VS Code plugin in a week that performs way better and is more responsive.

So definitely: Nowadays unfortunately a no-buy, the company missed to keep up in the AI industry! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing, AI assistant is useless and you end up wasting more time than being efficient....it creates garbage code and context is limited to a single file. input window hangs often and I have to restart the IDE frequently. Model is not particulalry fine tuned for coding as it makes basic mistakes and requires more itme to fix the issues than it would to write the code manually.

I cancelled my subscription within 3 days of using premium models.

There are better options like Cursor...even Github and Cody are cheaper. Or you can grab your own key and use Cline. All of them are a lot better than Tabnine which is not only more expensive but worst performance.

It is glitchy, generates garbage code, logs out 10 times a day and very poor cache management.. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Everything...It is glitchy, generates garbage code, logs out 10 times a day and very poor cache management...and worst...they don't let you delete your payment details from their platform...A SCAM.

And when you contact customer support, you can only send an email...there is no way to reach them otherwise.

And worst, they never replied back Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
