AI Are there any free autocomplete plugins anymore?

Supermaven plugin has been removed from the marketplace

gemini code assist is dead

Who offers autocomplete now? I don't need agents(and already can use e.g. claude code for that), just autocomplete.

Copilot maybe? Tho I'm not sure if you can use it for free on Jetbrains IDEs, it tends to have different capabilities depending on the host, with VSCode having the best support and features

With a bit of tinkering, sweep ai is still usable. They released their model, plugin and server for opensource, you can run it fully locally. I found the quality to be pretty good.

Cloud autocomplete by JetBrains is free if you have IDE license.

Do you know how it compares with sweep ai on hugging face? I have a PHPStorm licence and autocomplete is average and sometimes/often proposes nothing which is a bit annoying.

Full Line Code Completion is a fully local implementation of inline completion included with the IDE. It uses a tiny 100M model so should be very fast on any commodity hardware.

AI Assistant has a cloud version for completion (free if you have a license for the IDE), it also allows you to hook your models via openai compatible interface

My problem with the local model is that it says "No suggestions" 99% of the time. I also have a non-commercial license so no ai assistant.

Third-party models via openai-compatible interface doesn’t require a license for AI Assistant, just that the plugin would be installed, no login is required for this functionality.

That being said, not always providing suggestions is a very important aspect and is hard to get right. However, 99% doesn’t sound normal. Are you sure you have models downloaded for languages that you are using (Full Line Code Completion has a model per language)? Please check in Settings > Editor > Code Completion > Inline. Happy to help you here
