We built a self-hostable AI coding assistant for JetBrains IDEs
Hey everyone, we’re William and Kevin - cofounders of Sweep 🧹
TLDR: JetBrains developers have to choose between the latest AI features and the IDE that they love. Sweep is an AI coding assistant purpose-built for JetBrains that gives you both.
Ask: Is your team using JetBrains? Reach out at william@sweep.dev or book a demo here.
Current AI coding assistants have poor support for JetBrains. GitHub Copilot in JetBrains is a far cry from VSCode, and other plugins aren’t much better.
We’ve heard:
“I love the features in JetBrains as an IDE but the AI sucks”
“I see all of these AI coding assistants on VSCode, and I check if they support JetBrains, and I always get disappointed when they don’t.”
Engineers who don’t use AI coding assistants are less productive. But engineers who have to switch away from their IDEs are even less productive.
Sweep makes it easy to use AI in JetBrains with our self-hostable plugin. Engineers keep their existing code editor with no data leakage and the best AI features.
We make it seamless to give the AI context. Sweep automatically sees the current file and codebase, saving you precious clicks.
By clicking “apply” you can seamlessly review and integrate Sweep’s code changes.
Finally, we can deploy everything on-prem, unlike other AI coding assistants that take your code and data.
Sweep is available on the JetBrains marketplace today. Try us out under Sweep AI.
