We built this profile from public sources and didn't use the product ourselves. The price is what we saw on the day we checked, so it may have changed.

Who it’s for

Developers who work in supported editors and GitHub workflows.

Why we said Use

What it is

Coding assistance with completions, agent features and model access that vary by plan. See the official documentation or product page. This profile describes public documentation, not a Loaded Tokens hands-on test.

Who it is for

Developers who work in supported editors and GitHub workflows. Our recommendation is scoped to that job; it is not a universal winner.

The evidence behind Use

An obvious shortlist for existing GitHub users who can measure review effort, not just generated code volume. The vendor page documents the underlying capability; the fit judgment is ours. No performance ranking, time saving or reliability result is implied.

Pricing and the catch

Free $0; Pro $10/user/month; Pro+ $39/user/month. Plan credits and model restrictions apply. Public pricing checked November 7, 2026. Prices are USD where stated and can change; taxes, region, annual commitments and extra usage may differ.

Unlimited completion language does not mean unlimited use of every agent or model.

A sensible first workflow

Implement a small tested function and review both the code and the generated tests. This is a suggested evaluation, not a test we ran. Decide what success looks like before opening the tool: what output is acceptable, what needs review and where the workflow must stop.

Bottom line: buy for the job, keep the exit route, and do not confuse a feature list with proof of results. Browse the company profile for the rest of the stack.
