Search, navigate, and understand any codebase at scale with AI that has full repository context
Each app below addresses a specific gap in Sourcegraph's offering. We picked them based on real user review patterns and feature differentiation.
GitHub's native code search covers all public and private repos you have access to. Fast, free with GitHub, but lacks the deep code intelligence of Sourcegraph.
Explore GitHub Code Search data →Grep.app enables fast regex-based code search across a large corpus of public GitHub repositories. Free and no sign-up required.
Explore Grep.app data →GitHub Copilot includes a chat mode that can answer questions about your code. Less powerful than Cody for whole-codebase queries but more integrated.
Explore GitHub Copilot data →Tabnine can train on your codebase to learn project patterns. Focuses on completions rather than search and navigation.
Explore Tabnine data →OpenGrok is a free, self-hosted code search and cross-reference engine. Requires setup and maintenance but has no licensing cost.
Explore OpenGrok data →Cursor indexes your local codebase and allows natural language queries about your code. Works within your editor rather than as a separate search tool.
Explore Cursor data →Essential for engineering teams at companies with large, multi-repository codebases who struggle with standard IDE search
Sourcegraph has a free cloud tier and a free self-hosted Community Edition. Cody AI is also free for individuals. Enterprise features require a paid plan.
Cody is Sourcegraph's AI coding assistant. It uses Sourcegraph's code intelligence to give the AI context about your entire codebase, enabling more accurate answers than assistants that only see open files.
Yes. Sourcegraph indexes your private repositories (GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, Perforce, and more) and makes them searchable with the same tools as public code.
