Sourcegraph Cody

Enterprise Only

Enterprise AI coding assistant with code graph context across your team's entire remote codebase

What is Sourcegraph Cody?

Sourcegraph Cody is an enterprise AI coding assistant that leverages Sourcegraph's code graph to give LLMs context from your entire remote codebase at any scale. Unlike GitHub Copilot or Cursor, which primarily use local file context, Cody can pull relevant functions, types, and documentation from across millions of lines of code in large enterprise monorepos. That context advantage is especially valuable for teams working on legacy systems, distributed microservices, or any codebase where the answer to "how is this used elsewhere?" requires more than a few open tabs. Cody offers chat, inline edits, autocomplete, and explain-code features across VS Code, JetBrains IDEs, and Neovim. In July 2025 Sourcegraph discontinued Cody Free and Cody Pro (new sign-ups stopped June 25, 2025), so today Cody is only available on the Enterprise plan at $59/user/month with an annual contract. Enterprise customers get admin-chosen LLM selection (Claude 3.7 Sonnet, Opus, GPT-4o, o1, Gemini), guaranteed no-training on company code, SOC 2 compliance, and the option to self-host or deploy via BYO cloud for air-gapped environments. Cody is best suited to large engineering organizations that already run Sourcegraph for code search and want AI coding features deeply integrated with their existing code intelligence stack.

⚡ Quick Verdict

Best for

Large enterprises with huge monorepos who need deep remote codebase context and strict data controls

Not ideal for

Individual developers, small teams, or anyone looking for a free or low-cost option

Starting price

Enterprise $59/user/month (annual contract only)

Free plan

No — Free and Pro plans discontinued July 2025

Key strength

Full remote codebase context via Sourcegraph code graph

Limitation

Enterprise-only pricing locks out individuals and small teams

Bottom line: Cody scores 4.3/5 — The strongest enterprise AI coding tool for teams with large monorepos, but the $59/user/month price excludes everyone else. If you are an individual, try Cursor, Continue.dev, or Aider instead.

Pricing

Cody Free — Discontinued July 2025: New sign-ups ended June 25, 2025. Existing users were sunset or migrated. If you need a free option, try Continue.dev, Cline, or Aider.

FAQ

Is Cody still free?

No. Sourcegraph discontinued Cody Free and Cody Pro in July 2025, and new sign-ups for those plans stopped on June 25, 2025. Today Cody is only available on the Enterprise plan, which is $59/user/month with an annual contract. If you are an individual looking for a free alternative, consider Continue.dev, Cline, or Aider, all of which are open source.

What makes Cody different from Copilot or Cursor?

The differentiator is context. Cody uses Sourcegraph's code graph to pull context from your team's entire remote codebase at any scale, not just files you happen to have open locally. For large enterprise monorepos with millions of lines of code, this is a meaningful advantage over GitHub Copilot and Cursor, which rely primarily on local file context. If your company already runs Sourcegraph for code search, Cody is a natural extension.

How much does Cody Enterprise cost?

Cody Enterprise is $59/user/month on an annual contract, which works out to $708/user/year. That is noticeably more expensive than GitHub Copilot Enterprise ($39/user/month) and Cursor Business ($40/user/month). The premium is justified if your team needs deep remote codebase context, enterprise security guarantees, and the Sourcegraph platform for code search alongside Cody.

Does Cody work with my IDE?

Yes. Cody has official extensions for VS Code, JetBrains IDEs (IntelliJ, PyCharm, WebStorm, GoLand, PhpStorm, Rider, RubyMine, CLion), and Neovim. Features include chat, inline edit, autocomplete, and explain-code. The VS Code and JetBrains extensions are the most feature-complete; the Neovim plugin is more minimal but supports core chat and autocomplete.

Does Cody train on my company's code?

No. Sourcegraph commits to not training on Cody Enterprise customers' code. Your data stays in your contracted environment and is used only to power context retrieval for your team's active sessions. This is a key reason regulated industries and enterprise security teams pick Cody over free consumer tools that may have opaquer data policies.

Which LLM does Cody use?

Cody Enterprise lets admins choose the underlying LLM from a list that includes Claude 3.7 Sonnet, Claude Opus, GPT-4o, o1, o3-mini, and Gemini 2.5. Teams can also bring their own model by routing through a self-hosted Sourcegraph deployment or a BYOC (bring your own cloud) setup. This flexibility is useful for regulated customers that need specific provider agreements or air-gapped environments.

Can Cody do agentic coding like Cursor or Cline?

Cody is more focused on chat, inline edits, and autocomplete than on fully autonomous agentic workflows. Sourcegraph has been adding agentic capabilities throughout 2025 and 2026 (including multi-file edits and task-based agents), but if your primary use case is long-running autonomous agents, Cursor Composer, Cline, or Claude Code are still ahead. Cody's strength is deep context over huge codebases.

Is Cody worth it over GitHub Copilot?

For large enterprises with remote monorepos, yes. Cody's full-codebase context, model flexibility, and Sourcegraph search integration are unique and can justify the $59/user/month price. For teams that already live in GitHub and want the cheapest enterprise AI option, Copilot Enterprise at $39 is a better fit. Evaluate both in a 30-day pilot on your real codebase before committing.

📋 Good to know

Setup

Requires a Sourcegraph Enterprise instance. Install the Cody extension for VS Code, JetBrains, or Neovim and connect to your org's endpoint.

Privacy

SOC 2 compliant, no training on customer code, self-host and BYOC options for air-gapped deployments.

When to upgrade

Cody is enterprise-only. If you outgrow Copilot Enterprise's context limits, Cody is the next step up.

Learning curve

Moderate for admins (Sourcegraph deployment), low for end users (IDE chat feels familiar).
