Sourcegraph Cody
Enterprise Only Last verified: September 2026Enterprise 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, code edits, autocomplete, and reusable prompts in VS Code and JetBrains IDEs, plus an experimental Visual Studio extension, the Sourcegraph web app, and an experimental CLI; the Neovim plugin is experimental and no longer actively maintained. In July 2025 Sourcegraph discontinued Cody Free and Cody Pro (new sign-ups stopped June 25, 2025), so today Cody is only available as part of Sourcegraph Enterprise, which starts at a $16,000 minimum annual contract, scales with team size, and includes pooled credits for AI features. Sourcegraph's pricing page now leads with Deep Search and agent tooling and does not name Cody, but its docs say Cody Enterprise remains supported. Enterprise customers get admin-configured LLM selection (Claude Opus 5, Claude Sonnet 5, Gemini 3.x, GPT-5.6), a no-training commitment on company code, SSO and audit logs, and the choice of a self-hosted or single-tenant cloud deployment. 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
Large enterprises with huge monorepos who need deep remote codebase context and strict data controls
Individual developers, small teams, or anyone looking for a free or low-cost option
Sourcegraph Enterprise from $16,000, scales with team size
No, Free and Pro plans discontinued July 2025
Full remote codebase context via Sourcegraph code graph
Enterprise-only pricing locks out individuals and small teams
Bottom line: Cody scores 4.3/5, a strong pick for enterprises with large monorepos that already run Sourcegraph, but it is sold only inside the $16,000-plus Sourcegraph Enterprise platform, which now leads with Deep Search rather than Cody. If you are an individual, try Cursor, Continue.dev, or Aider instead.

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 as part of Sourcegraph Enterprise, which starts at a $16,000 minimum annual contract and scales with team size; the plan includes AI credits per user, but Sourcegraph publishes no per-seat price. 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 is sold through Sourcegraph Enterprise, which starts at a $16,000 minimum annual contract and scales with team size. The plan includes credits for AI features per user, pooled across the org, but Sourcegraph publishes no per-seat price, so you will need a quote to compare it against GitHub Copilot Enterprise or Cursor Business. The $16,000 is the price of the Sourcegraph Enterprise platform; the pricing page does not list Cody separately. The premium is justified if your team needs deep remote codebase context, enterprise security controls, and the Sourcegraph platform for code search alongside Cody.
Does Cody work with my IDE?
Yes, in most setups. Cody has official extensions for VS Code and JetBrains IDEs (IntelliJ IDEA, PyCharm, WebStorm, GoLand, PhpStorm, Rider, RubyMine, CLion, Android Studio and more), plus an experimental extension for Visual Studio. You can also use Cody in the Sourcegraph web app and through the Cody CLI, which is experimental. A Neovim plugin (sg.nvim) still exists, but Sourcegraph says it is experimental and no longer actively maintained. Features include chat, code edits, autocomplete, and reusable prompts.
Does Cody train on my company's code?
No. For Enterprise customers, Sourcegraph commits to not training on your company's data, and its third-party LLM providers do not train on your codebase. To answer a question, Sourcegraph retrieves relevant code snippets that the user has permission to read and sends them to the LLM provider as context. 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 configure which LLMs are available. Sourcegraph's supported-models list includes Claude Opus 5, Claude Sonnet 5 (the default chat model), Claude Haiku 4.5, Gemini 3.8 Flash and other Gemini 3.x Flash models, Gemini 3.1 Pro (beta), and GPT-5.6. Enterprise customers can also bring their own API keys (BYOK). This flexibility is useful for regulated customers that need specific provider agreements.
Can Cody do agentic coding like Cursor or Cline?
Cody is more focused on chat, code edits, autocomplete, and prompts than on fully autonomous agentic workflows, though it supports the Model Context Protocol (MCP) for connecting external context. For agentic coding, Sourcegraph built a separate tool, Amp, and its platform now also offers Agentic Batch Changes for code changes at scale. 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 Sourcegraph Enterprise's platform pricing, which starts at $16,000. For teams that already live in GitHub and want the cheapest enterprise AI option, Copilot Enterprise may be a better fit. Evaluate both in a 30-day pilot on your real codebase before committing.
📋 Good to know
Requires a Sourcegraph Enterprise instance. Install the Cody extension for VS Code, JetBrains, or Visual Studio (experimental) and connect to your org's endpoint, or use Cody in the Sourcegraph web app.
No training on customer code, SSO and audit logs, and self-hosted or single-tenant cloud deployment options.
Cody is enterprise-only. If you outgrow Copilot Enterprise's context limits, Cody is the next step up.
Moderate for admins (Sourcegraph deployment), low for end users (IDE chat feels familiar).
