Bito
A 2025 roundup comparing numerous free and paid AI coding assistants that integrate with VS Code and other editors, with an emphasis on capabilities, privacy, and IDE compatibility.

This article reviews a wide range of AI-powered developer assistants — from open-source projects to commercial products — focusing on tools that work well inside Visual Studio Code and other IDEs. It provides a side-by-side feature comparison, accessibility notes (offline/self-hosting), and specific coding use cases like code completion, navigation, and test generation.

The write-up highlights Bito’s distinctive approach of performing AI-driven code reviews with context-aware analysis of local codebases, automated PR comments, and privacy-first design, and contrasts it with other offerings such as Tabnine, Codeium, Amazon CodeWhisperer, Cody, and several open-source alternatives. It also summarizes strengths and limitations of each tool and calls out differences in deployment, model personalization, and security scanning.

Finally, the post offers a short evaluation framework for choosing an AI assistant (language/framework support, IDE compatibility, suggestion quality, privacy/security, and performance) and encourages developers to experiment with multiple tools to find the best fit for their workflow.
