What is CodiumAI?

CodiumAI is a tool focused on code integrity. It generates tests that help developers understand how their code behaves, points out tricky edge cases, and flags suspicious patterns, making code more robust.

Unlike general code completion tools, CodiumAI specializes in code integrity. It brings testing expertise to the process, can handle multiple test prompts at once to produce a variety of tests, and selects the right code context for each prompt. It is free for individual developers and supports popular languages in IDEs like VSCode and JetBrains.

Security and privacy are part of the design: CodiumAI only analyzes the code needed to generate tests, uses SSL encryption for data, and is SOC2 certified. While it can speed up development and improve code quality, it is still wise to review the tests it creates. To get started, install the free VSCode extension or JetBrains plugin, or visit the CodiumAI website.

Who created CodiumAI?

CodiumAI was founded by Itamar Friedman (Co-Founder & CEO) and Dedy Kredo (Co-Founder & CPO). Based in Tel Aviv, the team aims to combine artificial intelligence with human intelligence to help developers build software faster and with fewer bugs. Their main product is an IDE extension that works alongside developers, generating useful tests and explaining code to improve productivity and quality.
