Build, debug, and ship with one AI coding teammate. Kilo Code is open-source, model-agnostic AI code assistant that's pay-per use. After 420,000+ downloads on VS Code and Cursor, we're bringing it to the JetBrains ecosystem: IntelliJ IDEA, PyCharm, WebStorm...
After 420,000+ developers started using Kilo Code on VS Code and Cursor, our #1 feature request was: “When will you support JetBrains?” Well… we listened! 🚀
We were frustrated with AI coding tools that lock you into one model, hide real pricing, and train on your code without permission. We built Kilo to be open-source, price-transparent, and model-agnostic. Let’s dive deeper:
What makes Kilo different
🔓 Transparent pricing – You pay exactly what OpenAI, Anthropic, or any provider charges. We take zero markup.
🧠 Model agnostic, choose from 400+ AI models – GPT-5, Claude Sonnet/Opus, Grok Code Fast, Gemini, Llama Turbo, or local models. Bring your own keys, or use our own provider with 0% markup.
🛠️ Your AI dev team in one tool. We have 4 main modes:
• Architect Mode: Think about your code structure before writing code
• Orchestrator Mode: Break down complex projects into smaller subtasks
• Code Mode: Implement with full context awareness
• Debug Mode: Auto-fix bugs until tests pass and everything runs smoothly
💾 Persistent memory – Kilo has features to remember your project context, decisions, and preferences across sessions. No more re-explaining.
✅ Work with up-to-date library versions – Using Context7, we make sure the generated code relies on the latest documentation for its training data. Useful if you’re working with libraries and frameworks that change often.
🔧 100% open source – Every line is on our GitHub repo (10,400 GitHub stars). We never train on your data. You can fork, modify or customize Kilo Code in any way you want.
We support all 11 JetBrains IDEs
Kilo Code now works as an extension with IntelliJ IDEA, PyCharm, WebStorm, GoLand, RustRover, and all other JetBrains IDEs.
We also have a large community with 8,000+ developers on Discord — your feedback shaped every feature.
Would love to hear what you think: What’s the first thing you’ll build with Kilo inside JetBrains? 🙌
P.S. Teams/Enterprise version is also live with centralized billing & management for org-wide rollouts.
Just tried Kilo Code for JetBrains and I’m impressed!
It feels like having an AI pair-programmer seamlessly integrated into my IDE — helping with code completion, debugging hints, and even context-aware refactoring. The best part is that it adapts naturally to my existing workflow without slowing me down.
Excited to see how this evolves, it’s definitely a game-changer for dev productivity! 👨💻🔥
One of the best tools I've ever used till now. I was on Cursor and WinsSurf before. I also used Cline and Roocode, but Kilo Code almost has everything that others provide built into it, and it has been a really big game changer for me. One of the best investments I have ever made. The added benefits of no tax on purchase of credits is really really good which makes me wanna choose Kilo Code over OpenRouter especially for coding. Also congratulations on JetBrains launch!
Kilo me ha resuelto la vida en tareas bien concretas y no demasiado complejas que demande demasiado contexto "1m tk" Ayuda para estar enfocado y reduce las alucinaciones, al parecer está todo muy bien optimizado
It replaced several others I was using with Kilocode. The best, without a doubt!
I’ve been using Kilo Code for coding projects, and it really helps me plan and fix code faster. Definitely makes coding less stressful!
Excellent product, I've been using it in VScode for a long time and it stands out from the competition.
it's my first time making apps with AI Agents but kilo code was one of best extension i have been used to create my project and it's allowed me to use powerful and premium coding tools like clause sonnet with it's free credit i love this app and i wish they will be better and we will celebrate their success together.
best Regards.
Super cool tool. As a non-programmer, I was looking for a tool to improve my vibe coding workflow. The workflow you can implement with Kilo is incredibly interesting. Two of the things I find most useful are the way you can give it context and how it changes the "agent type" based on the needs.
Congratulations guys, love your product, I'm not developer, yet Kilo helped me accomplish and learn through trying and test different LLM models.
Finally got KiloCode working in PHPStorm — total game changer for me. It fits so much better into my workflow, letting me take full advantage of KiloCode’s fine-tuning right inside my favorite tool, without switching environments. Great job — KiloCode has completely replaced my use of Cursor!
Congratulations on the new milestone! Long live Kilo Code! It is an awesome extension!
KiloCode fits my vibe-coding flow and stays out of the way. Open source, model agnostic, and now in with JetBrains. KiloCode works like a quiet senior dev who gets on with it, not another tool to babysit.
Excited to see Kilo Code expanding to JetBrains! Been using it in Cursor - open-source, fast, and super practical. Great step forward
@Kilo Code Switching to Kilo Code hasn't just been a good decision; it's been a revolutionary step in my development workflow and i use it to teach vibe coding to my students and we are loving it.
To be honest, at first, I signed up and wasn't entirely interested. it sat on the back burner for a while. Then, one day, I decided to give it a spin, and that was the moment everything changed. I was immediately locked in.
I moved through other fantastic tools like Cursor, Lovable, and Claude but Kilo Code provided the perfect convergence of capability and convenience. The most critical shift? It's much cheaper and infinitely more convenient having my code run locally on my own machine.
To finally run my custom 'vibe' code directly within my IDE and witness it interact with my files with such flawless precision and responsiveness is nothing short of amazing. It took the friction right out of my daily grind.
But Kilo Code is so much more than a seamless IDE integration. I've been consistently impressed by its ability to act as an end-to-end development partner. From the moment I conceive a project, it doesn't just help me code. it completely plans my entire application development cycle. We're talking about laying down the initial system architecture, meticulously mapping out a step-by-step coding guide, and even proactively extending and suggesting features I hadn't yet considered. This level of foresight and comprehensive support truly accelerates innovation.
The ease of use combined with this profound, strategic capability is a testament to the Kilo Code team's vision. Seeing how far this tool has come and the impact it’s already having is incredibly inspiring.
I am genuinely proud to be an early part of this success story and to celebrate the remarkable growth you are achieving today. Kilo Code isn't just a tool; it's the future of intelligent development.
@sytses congratulations on the launch! All the very best. Can kilo supports using multiple models in one session for different tasks (eg. Claude for research, OpenAI for build) without creating custom workers? I’m currently looking for this solution in cli mode as I have to switch between the models.
hey @Product Hunt I am here to say that I love @Kilo Code and it becomes my to go app for vibing! I love the detailed context progress, also the option to switch models with the same subscription or to test new comers is really amazing in the current landscape that each provider is getting better than the previous one and also thier prices vary
Cheers to the launch, Kilo is awesome and much more powerful, I previously used Cline. I would like Kilo to have more features built around its contextual abilities and advance users able to customize it as they like.
