Codeium vs Amazon CodeWhisperer
CodeWhisperer was still in private beta when we wrote a much more detailed analysis of top AI-powered code assistant tools, but has since become generally accessible. We performed a separate individual assessment of Amazon CodeWhisperer, which is where the latency and quality assessments come from.
We will compare the CodeWhisperer individual tier with Codeium's individual tier.
