Tabnine is a code completion tool which uses generative artificial intelligence to assist users by autocompleting code. It was created in 2018 by Jacob Jackson, a student at the University of Waterloo.[1] It is now developed by Tabnine, a software company founded under the name Codota by Dror Weiss and Eran Yahav in Tel Aviv, Israel, in 2013, and renamed to Tabnine in 2021.[2][3][4] Initially established under the name Codota, the company underwent a rebranding in May 2021 following the release of the companyโ€™s first large language model based AI coding assistant, adopting the name Tabnine.[5][6]

History

[edit]

Tabnine was established as Codota in 2013 by Dror Weiss and Eran Yahav in Tel Aviv, Israel.[7][8][9] Tabnine, initially founded under the name Codota, was created to develop tools based on over a decade of academic research at the Technion.[10][11][12][13]

Codota, the predecessor of Tabnine, secured $2 million in seed investment in June 2017. Following this, in June 2018, the company introduced the first AI-based code completion for Java IDE.[14][10][13]

In 2019, Codota acquired a product called Tabnine, which used the newly available large-language model technology to provide generative AI for software code across a broader range of programming languages across five IDEs. Codota replaced its earlier approach to code generation with this new approach to generative AI.[15][16][10][17][18]

The company secured a Series A round of funding in April 2020, raising $12 million.[14][19][20][21][22]

On May 26, 2021, Codota changed its name to Tabnine and underwent a corresponding rebranding.[23]

By April 2022, Tabnine reached over one million users. In June of the same year, Tabnine launched models that could predict full lines and snippets of code.[24] The same year it raised $15.5 mln in a funding round led co-led by Qualcomm Ventures.[25]

In June 2023, Tabnine introduced an AI-powered chat agent, enabling developers to use natural language to generate code, to explain code, to generate tests and documentation, and to propose fixes to code.[26]

In November 2023, Tabnine closed a Series B round of funding, raising $25 million to scale the companyโ€™s operations.[27]

Operations

[edit]

Tabnine's headquarters is located in Tel Aviv, Israel, with an additional corporate entity in the United States.[15]

As of November 2023, Tabnine generative AI for software development is used by a million developers. It has 10 million installations across VS Code and JetBrains.[24][28][29]

Since its founding, Dror Weiss has served as CEO, with Eran Yahav as CTO.[15][13]
