Introduction

Augment Code is an AI coding tool designed specifically for professional software engineers working with large, complex codebases. It's the first AI Agent built to understand your entire codebase in real-time, ensuring every completion, instruction, and chat has the right context to deliver unparalleled code quality.

Key features of Augment Code include:

* Real-time codebase indexing and understanding

* Memories that automatically update and persist across conversations

* Native tool integrations with GitHub, Jira, Notion & Linear

* Code Checkpoints for safe implementation with one-click reversion

* Multi-Modal support for sharing screenshots and images

* 100+ Model Context Protocol (MCP) tools accessible in your IDE

Augment Code consistently outperforms competitors in code quality benchmarks, including ranking #1 on the SWE-Bench leaderboard with 65.4% accuracy. Its retrieval system achieves 81.8% keyword recall on repository-aware benchmarks, outperforming top models from other providers by nearly 2x.

The platform works seamlessly with popular development environments including VSCode, JetBrains IDEs, Vim, GitHub, and Slack, allowing developers to stay in their preferred workflow.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an Agent Request in Augment Code?

An Agent Request is counted when a user sends a message to the agent or when the agent uses a tool (Edit files, Terminal, Search, Native tools, MCP, etc.). For example, a user prompt, context engine search, file edits, running tests, and the agent's reply would each count as separate requests.

Is Agent Usage really unlimited?

Yes, Augment Code currently offers unlimited Agent usage on both trial and paid plans while they develop their pricing model. They aim to create a fair and transparent solution with input from their community.

Do you train on my data on a paid plan?

No. Developer and Enterprise plans exclude any AI training on your data as part of Augment Code's Enterprise Terms of Service.

How does Augment Code handle Security & Compliance?

Augment Code takes security and compliance seriously with rigorous encryption and access controls. They undergo annual SOC 2 audits and provide detailed information through their Trust Center.

How does Augment Code compare to GitHub Copilot?

While both are AI coding assistants, Augment Code differentiates itself by focusing on understanding your entire codebase in real-time, rather than just the current file. Augment Code offers features like persistent memories that adapt to your coding style, native integrations with development tools (GitHub, Jira, Notion), and Code Checkpoints for safe implementation. It also ranks #1 on the SWE-Bench leaderboard with 65.4% accuracy, demonstrating its superior code quality in complex scenarios.
