About Tabby
Tabby is an open-source, self-hostable AI coding assistant that runs entirely on your own infrastructure (cloud, on-premises, or consumer-grade GPUs) so code and data never leave your control. It offers real-time code completion, an in-IDE answer engine, inline chat, and project-aware context pulled from docs and config files, integrating with editors like VS Code, Neovim, and IntelliJ. Aimed at development teams and enterprises that need Copilot-style assistance without sending code to a third-party cloud, its key differentiator is full transparency and self-hosting with no external DBMS or cloud dependency.
