How much does Tabnine cost in 2026?
Tabnine's last published prices were $39 per user per month for the Code Assistant Platform and $59 per user per month for the Agentic Platform, both on an annual subscription. That is what the pricing page showed in mid-September 2026. Since then, tabnine.com redirects to Tricentis, which announced it was acquiring Tabnine on July 30, 2026, and the old pricing URL now sends you to a Tricentis contact form. So the list prices are the best public reference you have, and the real number for a new contract comes from a sales quote.
If you are budgeting a renewal or a new rollout, treat $39 and $59 as the floor of the conversation, not the final figure. The acquisition changes who you negotiate with, and Tricentis is folding Tabnine's Enterprise Context Engine into its quality engineering platform, so packaging may change at your next renewal.
Tabnine plans and what each one included
| Plan | Last listed price | What was included |
|---|---|---|
| Code Assistant Platform | $39 per user a month, annual subscription | Code completions and AI chat in all major IDEs, choice of models from Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, Meta and Mistral, Jira integration, SaaS, VPC, on-premises or air-gapped deployment, SSO for private deployments, usage analytics, priority ticket support |
| Agentic Platform | $59 per user a month, annual subscription | Everything above plus autonomous agents, MCP tool use, the Tabnine CLI and the Tabnine Context Engine with unlimited codebase connections for GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket and Perforce P4 |
| LLM usage | Provider price plus a 5% handling fee | Unlimited when you bring your own model on-premises or your own cloud endpoint. If you use Tabnine-provided model access, you prepay a reserved token quota |
Both plans had a "get a quote" button rather than a checkout, and the last pricing page we checked showed no free plan. The footnote about tokens is the part people miss. If your team uses the models Tabnine supplies rather than your own endpoint, the seat price is not the whole bill.
Tabnine enterprise pricing for 10, 20 and 50 developers
Here is the list-price math on annual billing, before token charges and before any discount your account manager offers.
| Team size | Code Assistant ($39) | Agentic ($59) |
|---|---|---|
| 10 developers | $390 a month, $4,680 a year | $590 a month, $7,080 a year |
| 20 developers | $780 a month, $9,360 a year | $1,180 a month, $14,160 a year |
| 50 developers | $1,950 a month, $23,400 a year | $2,950 a month, $35,400 a year |
Add the token quota if you run on Tabnine-provided models. The cost depends on which model you pick and how much your developers use chat and agents, priced at the model provider's rate plus 5%. A team that leans on agents for refactors can move that line a lot from month to month, so ask for the quota size, what happens when it runs out and whether unused tokens roll over. If finance wants warning before a usage line jumps, set a budget alert on the software spend the day the contract starts, not after the first surprise invoice.
What the Tricentis acquisition means for your Tabnine contract
Tricentis sells software testing and quality engineering tools. Its stated reason for buying Tabnine was the Enterprise Context Engine, a knowledge graph built from repositories, documentation, tickets and APIs, which Tricentis plans to use to give its testing agents context about a company's systems. Coverage of the deal reported that Tabnine's products and seat prices were unchanged when it was announced.
For a buyer, three practical things follow:
- The sales motion is now Tricentis. The Tabnine site and pricing page redirect there, so expect a quote-led process and possibly a bundle offer with Tricentis testing products.
- Read the renewal terms. Check whether your current price is locked for the next term, how much notice you need to give to cancel, and whether the plan names on your order form still exist.
- Ask about the roadmap in writing. If you bought Tabnine for completions and chat in the IDE, ask how long the Code Assistant Platform will be sold and supported on its own.
None of this means Tabnine stops working tomorrow. It means the price you pay next year is less predictable than the number you budgeted last year.
Is Tabnine worth it for a small team?
Tabnine is worth it when its main strength matters to you: private deployment. Few AI coding assistants offer VPC, on-premises and fully air-gapped installs with your own models, and that is why regulated companies picked it. If you need that, $39 to $59 per user is a fair price, and the alternatives that also self-host are not cheaper.
If you do not need self-hosting, the comparison gets harder for Tabnine. GitHub Copilot Business is $19 per user a month, and our Gemini Code Assist pricing guide shows Standard at $19 and Enterprise at $45 per user on annual terms. For agent-heavy work, our Zencoder pricing breakdown covers another per-seat option.
Paying for the Context Engine when you only need codebase answers
A lot of teams moved up to the $59 Agentic Platform for one reason: the Context Engine, so that the AI understood their own repositories instead of guessing. That is a $20 per user premium over Code Assistant. On 20 developers it is $4,800 a year just for context.
If what you actually want is for people to ask "where is the retry logic for failed payments" or "how does tenant isolation work" and get an answer that points at the right files, a codebase Q&A tool does that job without a per-seat assistant. CodeIndex indexes your GitHub repositories and answers plain-English questions with file paths and line ranges, plus semantic search that returns ranked code chunks. It is a flat $149 a month billed annually for 20 users and 50 repos, or $49 a month for 5 users. See how the answers look on our ask questions about your codebase page.
To be fair about the trade: CodeIndex does not complete code in your editor, does not run agents and works with GitHub only, with no self-hosted edition. Keep Tabnine, or move to another assistant, for completions. Use a shared codebase index for the questions, especially from people who do not write code all day, such as QA, support engineers and product managers, who should not need a $59 seat to find out where a feature lives. Our codebase AI assistant page compares that setup with Copilot Business and Cursor Teams.
Questions to ask before you sign or renew
- What is the per-user price for the exact plan on the order form, and is it fixed for the full term?
- Do we pay for tokens, and if so how big is the reserved quota and what is the overage rule?
- Is the Context Engine still included in our tier, or now sold as part of a Tricentis bundle?
- Which deployment options are included at our price: SaaS, VPC, on-premises or air-gapped?
- What notice period applies to cancellation, and does the contract auto-renew?

Frequently asked questions
How much does Tabnine cost per user?
Tabnine's last published prices were $39 per user per month for the Code Assistant Platform and $59 per user per month for the Agentic Platform, both billed on an annual subscription. Token usage through Tabnine-provided models is extra, at the model provider's price plus a 5% handling fee.
Does Tabnine still have a free plan?
No. The last Tabnine pricing page listed only the two paid platforms, each with a get a quote button, and no free tier. New customers now go through a Tricentis contact form, so any trial is arranged with sales.
Who owns Tabnine now?
Tricentis, a software testing and quality engineering company, announced it was acquiring Tabnine on July 30, 2026. The tabnine.com website now redirects to tricentis.com, and Tricentis plans to use Tabnine's Enterprise Context Engine in its agentic quality engineering platform.
What is the difference between Tabnine Code Assistant and Agentic?
Code Assistant at $39 covers completions and AI chat in the IDE with private deployment options. Agentic at $59 adds autonomous agents, MCP tool use, the Tabnine CLI and the Context Engine, which connects GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket and Perforce repositories so answers reflect your codebase.
Can Tabnine run on-premises?
Yes. Both platforms were sold with SaaS, VPC, on-premises and fully air-gapped deployment options, and usage is unlimited when you run your own model on-premises or point Tabnine at your own cloud model endpoint.
What is a cheaper alternative to Tabnine for codebase questions?
If the main reason for the $59 tier is codebase context, CodeIndex answers plain-English questions about private GitHub repos with file and line citations for a flat $49 a month for 5 users or $149 for 20 users, billed annually. It does not do code completion, so pair it with an IDE assistant.
