03 What makes Cody different from Copilot?
Cody's strength is codebase context - it can understand your entire codebase, not just open files. Enterprise tier uses Sourcegraph's code graph for deep understanding. Copilot has broader IDE support and GitHub integration. Cody excels at questions about large codebases.
04 What is Cody's context advantage?
Cody can search and understand code across your entire repository when answering questions. Enterprise tier with Sourcegraph indexing understands all your code's relationships. This means more accurate answers about 'how does X work' or 'where is Y used' questions.
05 What AI models does Cody use?
Cody includes access to Claude 3.5 Sonnet, GPT-4o, and other models. Pro tier allows switching between models and bringing your own API keys. You can choose the best model for each task.
06 Is Cody Pro worth $9/month?
Cody Pro at $9/month is excellent value for unlimited chat and multiple models. It's cheaper than Copilot Pro ($10/month) with comparable features. If you use chat frequently, Pro pays for itself quickly.
07 What is Sourcegraph Enterprise?
Sourcegraph Enterprise includes Cody with full codebase context via Sourcegraph's code intelligence platform. It indexes your entire codebase so Cody understands code relationships, dependencies, and patterns across repositories. Requires Sourcegraph deployment.
08 Does Cody require Sourcegraph?
No, Cody Free and Pro work standalone without Sourcegraph. Enterprise tier benefits from Sourcegraph's code graph for full codebase context. You can use Cody independently or as part of a Sourcegraph deployment.
09 What IDEs does Cody support?
Cody supports VS Code, JetBrains IDEs (IntelliJ, PyCharm, etc.), and Neovim. The VS Code extension is most feature-complete. IDE support is narrower than Copilot but covers most popular environments.
10 Can I bring my own API keys?
Yes, Cody Pro supports bringing your own OpenAI, Anthropic, or other provider API keys. This lets you use your own API billing and potentially access models not included in the standard plan.
11 Cody vs Cursor: Which is better?
Cursor ($20/month) is a standalone AI IDE; Cody ($9/month Pro) is an IDE extension. Cursor offers more aggressive AI editing; Cody excels at codebase understanding. If you want to keep VS Code, Cody is cheaper. If you want an AI-first IDE, try Cursor.
12 Does Cody train on my code?
Cody doesn't train models on your code. Enterprise tier processes code for context but doesn't use it for model training. Self-hosted Sourcegraph keeps all data on your infrastructure for maximum privacy.
