JetBrains, a renowned software development company, has taken a significant step towards harnessing the power of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in their integrated development environments (IDEs). The company has now made all their AI tools, including the AI Assistant and the new coding agent Junie, available under a single subscription with a free tier.

Transforming the Development Experience

Ever since JetBrains started, over 25 years ago, their mission has been to make developers more productive and bring more joy to software development through smarter, more efficient tools. With AI revolutionizing software development, JetBrains is positioning itself at the forefront of this revolution.

AI is transforming the software development landscape, and JetBrains is committed to leveraging the best innovations to provide developers with cutting-edge tools. The company’s approach is built on a strong foundation of privacy, security, and transparency, ensuring that developers can work confidently with their code and context protected.

“JetBrains and Anthropic share a commitment to transforming how developers work. Developers rely on Claude’s state-of-the-art performance in solving complex, real-world coding tasks. We’re excited to see how Junie, powered by Claude, will help the global developer community create innovative things within the trusted JetBrains IDEs that customers love.”

Mike Krieger, Chief Product Officer, Anthropic

“As JetBrains’ first AI partner, we’ve witnessed firsthand their ongoing commitment to enhancing developer productivity and innovation. Junie is set to unlock exciting new possibilities for developers globally, and we look forward to our ongoing partnership as JetBrains continues to redefine the developer experience.”

Nicolai Skabo, Head of EMEA, OpenAI

“Google partnership with JetBrains spans many joint initiatives over the years, including our recent collaboration to build the global infrastructure for JetBrains AI – spanning three continents, leveraging Google Cloud’s AI Hypercomputer and global network backbone. Witnessing JetBrains AI’s rapid evolution, innovation, and scale has been amazing. We’re excited to continue collaborating to ensure 11.4M of developers around the world benefit from the low latency, responsiveness, and high reliability of JetBrains AI.”

Nirav Mehta, Sr. Director of Product Management, Google Cloud

“We created our powerful AI coding agent, Junie, to redefine the way you code by giving you a willing virtual collaborator right in the IDE. JetBrains Junie is now publicly available to all our IDE users.

Since we announced Junie in January 2025, we have seen strong demand for our Early Access Program. Participants have used Junie for a range of things, from fully delegating routine tasks to it to collaborating with it to achieve more complex ones together. With the combined power of JetBrains IDEs, coupled with Anthropic’s Claude and Open AI LLMs, Junie is already able to solve problems that would otherwise require hours of work.

In this latest release, Junie has been improved to perform even more complex tasks and offer even finer control for a genuine human-in-the-loop approach. Junie is now a full-fledged pair programmer that can answer questions, propose a plan to the user, and follow development guidelines.

As well as bringing greater productivity, Junie is designed to raise the bar for code quality. So, in addition to helping you get more done faster, Junie will also help enhance the standard of your code. This means you can use the time saved to review more complex issues, staying focused on the big picture without being distracted by mundane tasks.

Junie is already compatible with IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate, PyCharm Pro, WebStorm, and GoLand. PhpStorm, RustRover, and RubyMine will also soon be supported.

“The new version of JetBrains AI Assistant includes major improvements designed to accelerate coding workflows and reduce repetitive tasks, supporting developers throughout the entire development process. Thanks to your valuable feedback, we’ve been able to enhance AI Assistant to make it even more intuitive and powerful, bringing to life many of your most anticipated features.”

Now, AI Assistant comes with expanded model options, including support for the latest cloud models like Claude 3.7 Sonnet, Google Gemini 2.5 Pro, and latest OpenAI models, as well as improved local model integration for enhanced privacy and control.

The new version delivers improved code completion and greater context awareness for more accurate suggestions that are tailored to your project. What’s more, our new edit mode enables seamless multi-file edits directly from the chat interface, making it easier to apply complex changes, refactor code, and streamline maintenance while keeping full control of your project.

AI Assistant has also been updated to provide you with smarter support across the entire workflow, from code generation and testing to documentation and debugging, ensuring a smoother and more efficient experience.
