Tabnine

What is Tabnine?

An AI coding assistant focused squarely on enterprise security, compliance, and strict code privacy, offering fully air-gapped and self-hosted deployment options.

Tabnine is built for mission-critical environments. It provides AI completions and chat while guaranteeing that code is never used to train external models. It can be deployed on-premises or completely air-gapped, and it offers an Enterprise Context Engine to ground AI responses securely in an organization's specific codebase.

How it relates to Orbit

Orbit sits beside an in-editor assistant like Tabnine rather than replacing it: your editor still edits code, and Orbit handles the queue and everything around it. See What is Orbit for details.

When you would use it

You select Tabnine when data privacy, IP protection, and the ability to run AI entirely offline or self-hosted are strict legal or organizational requirements.

Common operations

  • Providing AI coding assistance to developers in highly regulated industries (finance/defense).
  • Running a secure AI agent entirely within a corporate firewall.
