Continue is the leading open-source AI code assistant that enables developers to build custom autocomplete and chat experiences directly inside their IDE. Unlike proprietary solutions, Continue gives developers complete control over their AI coding workflow by allowing them to connect any AI models and any context to create personalized development experiences. The platform supports integration with popular IDEs and provides both autocomplete functionality and interactive chat capabilities. Developers can configure Continue to work with their preferred AI models, whether that's OpenAI's GPT models, Anthropic's Claude, or other language models, giving them flexibility in choosing the best AI backend for their specific needs. Continue's open-source nature means developers can customize every aspect of the tool, from the underlying AI models to the user interface and interaction patterns. This makes it particularly valuable for teams that need specialized AI assistance tailored to their codebase, coding standards, or domain-specific requirements. The tool is designed for developers who want AI-enhanced development capabilities without being locked into a specific vendor's ecosystem. By providing the infrastructure to build custom AI coding experiences, Continue empowers development teams to create exactly the AI assistance they need while maintaining full control over their data and workflows.
