About Cody

Cody combines AI chat and code generation with Sourcegraph's code search engine, letting it pull relevant context from across an entire codebase, including code the developer doesn't currently have open, rather than being limited to local file context.

It's aimed primarily at larger engineering organizations that already use or would benefit from Sourcegraph's code search and navigation tools, positioning Cody as an extension of that platform rather than a standalone lightweight assistant.

Sourcegraph's current public pricing information centers on a single Enterprise plan with a substantial minimum annual contract, reflecting its focus on large organizations rather than individual developers or small teams.
