About JetBrains AI
JetBrains AI revolutionizes software development by embedding powerful AI assistance directly into JetBrains IDEs. Starting with the 2025.1 release, all JetBrains AI features are now accessible for free, including unlimited code completion powered by local models, AI chat functionality, and access to advanced coding agents like Junie. The platform seamlessly integrates across all JetBrains IDEs including IntelliJ IDEA, PyCharm, WebStorm, CLion, and DataGrip. The AI system provides context-aware suggestions, automated code generation, intelligent refactoring, and multi-file editing capabilities without disrupting your workflow. It supports multiple programming languages and frameworks, offering features like inline documentation generation, commit message creation, and rename refactoring. JetBrains AI leverages both local and cloud-based models including GPT-4, Claude 3.5 Sonnet, and Gemini to provide accurate, contextual assistance. Designed for professional developers and development teams, JetBrains AI scales from individual use to enterprise deployments. The platform's new free model ensures accessibility while providing quota-based access to cloud features, making it ideal for developers already working within the JetBrains ecosystem who want AI-powered coding assistance.
