In practice

Your code can't leave your network, so most AI coding tools are off the table. Tabnine offers on-prem and air-gapped deployment, keeping the assistant inside your perimeter.

Generic suggestions don't match how your codebase actually works. Tabnine trains private-repo models, so completions reflect your own code, not just public patterns.

Security won't approve a coding tool that phones home. Tabnine runs air-gapped, so developers get AI help without code leaving the building.

Pricing

From $39/user/mo

seats

Trial available

Included quota

Code Assistant (entry, $39/user/mo): unlimited code completions and IDE chat using leading LLMs (Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, Meta, Mistral), grounded in your codebase, with zero code retention.

What is public

Tabnine pivoted to enterprise-only in 2025–26, retiring its free and low-cost individual/Dev tiers. Current published tiers (annual billing only, no monthly, no individual license): Code Assistant $39/user/mo and Agentic Platform $59/user/mo. A separate Enterprise Context Engine is priced on quote. Purchase routes through 'Get a quote' / sales.

Billing mechanics

Per-seat annual subscription, sold to teams (no individual or monthly plan). Code Assistant covers completions + IDE chat; the Agentic Platform tier adds autonomous agents, MCP tools, CLI, and unlimited codebase connections. Self-hosted/air-gapped Enterprise deployments add GPU infrastructure cost (~$500–$2,000+/mo) on top of per-seat fees; using your own on-prem LLM endpoint is unlimited usage.

Cost watchouts

Annual billing only (no monthly), no free/individual tier, self-hosted GPU costs ($500–$2,000+/mo) for air-gapped deployment, Context Engine priced separately, quote-gated purchase

Variable cost rationale

Flat per-seat with no usage metering keeps software spend predictable; variability comes from self-hosted GPU infrastructure, not consumption

Additional watchouts

No free or solo plan anymore — it's a team/enterprise purchase, annual-only; completion quality reportedly trails Copilot/Cursor; the value is privacy/compliance/air-gap, not raw capability

Overage / add-ons

No per-use overage — flat per-seat; cost scales by seats, tier (Agentic $59), and self-hosting infrastructure. Own-LLM/on-prem usage is unlimited.

Sales call required

Yes, required for paid access

Lowest paid plan

Paid ~$9–$39/user (LOCK)

Commercial notes

Enterprise-only after the 2025–26 pivot; four deployment modes (SaaS, VPC, on-prem, air-gapped); SOC 2 Type II / ISO 27001 / GDPR / HIPAA-eligible; models trained only on permissive-licensed code with Code Provenance; Tabnine CLI (Jan 2026); list price often negotiated toward Copilot/Cursor for 50+ seats

Key ambiguities

Published seat prices ($39/$59) are list, but purchase is quote-gated; the Context Engine and self-hosted licensing aren't publicly priced; some third-party listings still show retired cheap tiers

Cancellation / refund

Annual commitment only; no monthly option; enterprise contract terms negotiated; refund/exit terms deal-specific

Support SLA / resale

Enterprise support, admin suite (analytics, model provisioning, context permissions, SSO), priority ticket support and training; IP indemnification on enterprise

Missing data

The Enterprise Context Engine and self-hosted licensing pricing aren't published; purchase is quote-gated. Note: the seed's '$9–$39/user' range is stale — the free/Dev tiers were retired and the floor is now $39 (Code Assistant).
