Tabby
Tabby is an open-source, self-hostable AI coding assistant offering code completion, inline chat, an answer engine and connectors to project data. It integrates with IDEs, supports local deployments and a free Community tier, with Team and Enterprise paid options and a cloud usage mode with free monthly credits.
The pricing pages show a free Community offering and a Team plan priced at $19 /mo per seat; enterprise requires contacting sales. Tabby Cloud uses usage-based billing with $20 in free monthly credits and billing rules tied to $10 thresholds.Is Tabby right for you?
Good for
- Developer teams who want a self-hosted, configurable code assistant integrated into IDEs and local infrastructure with a free community option to trial.
- Open-source and self-hostable so teams can run Tabby on their own infrastructure.
- Integrates with many IDEs and offers in-editor features like code completion, inline chat, and an answer engine.
Keep in mind
- Community plan is limited to a small user count (documented cap of 5 users).
- Enterprise pricing and customized deployments require contacting sales rather than a published price.
- If immediate out-of-the-box enterprise SSO integrations are required, confirm specific SSO provider compatibility because enterprise identity details aren’t fully listed publicly.
Pricing and plan limits
Community: Free/Open Source with up to 5 users documented. Team: $19 /mo per seat documented. Enterprise: listed as "Contact us" and "Custom" — the pages require contacting sales for custom enterprise pricing. The linked official pages provide both monthly and annual price displays; mapping some annual plan names to organization tiers is present but partially ambiguous on plan scope.
