Kite will today launch a subscription-based coding assistant that tries to help programmers craft stuff quickly and efficiently.
Founder and CEO Adam Smith told
The Register his San Francisco upstart has spent more than six years developing a product that is, essentially, autocomplete for source code. Over that time, Kite has amassed about 250,000 monthly active users for its free version known as Kite Free, which integrates with Visual Studio Code, Atom, Sublime, Vim, and others, and supports JavaScript and Python.
Now, it’s touting a premium flavor called Kite Pro that costs $19.90 per month, or $16.60 a month if you’re willing to fork out for a whole year.
