Side-by-side comparison — features, pricing, pros and cons
Cody by Sourcegraph is an AI coding assistant with deep codebase understanding. Answers questions about your code, generates code with full context awareness, and integrates with Sourcegraph code search to help developers navigate and understand large codebases.
AI code editor by Codeium built around the Cascade agent architecture, where the AI maintains a persistent understanding of your entire coding session rather than responding to isolated prompts. Cascade can plan and execute multi-step tasks while the developer continues working, with "flows" that track intent across file edits, terminal commands, and test results. Priced at $15–30/mo as a direct Cursor competitor.
