Continue

Continue is a developer-focused AI platform that combines open-source IDE extensions with a hub for creating and sharing code agents. The core experience is provided through open-source VS Code and JetBrains extensions and a CLI, while the Continue Hub adds team features and agent management. Continue emphasizes customization: you can define models and roles such as chat, edit, autocomplete, embeddings, and more, and the documentation lists support for many model providers including Anthropic, OpenAI, Gemini, Ollama, Amazon Bedrock, Azure, xAI, and others. On the automation side, Continue describes launching background agents with workflows that integrate with tools like GitHub, Sentry, Snyk, Linear, and Slack, and you can trigger agents on events or schedules and monitor interventions. Pricing for the hub starts with a Solo plan at $0 per developer per month, which includes creating and sharing agents, using the open-source extensions, and bringing your own compute or API keys. Team plans add centralized management and governance with allow and block lists, and a managed proxy so members can use but not view shared API keys, while Enterprise options add SSO and an on-premises data plane for keeping sensitive data in your own environment. Continue is a strong fit when you want flexibility in models and prompts, but it also requires setup discipline because you are choosing providers, keys, and policies rather than relying on a single managed model.
