AI-first code editor with fast autocomplete and agents that edit across your codebase.
TRAE
AI-native IDE that collaborates with you through chat, autocomplete and agents.
What is TRAE?
TRAE is an AI-native development environment designed to work alongside developers rather than just suggest snippets. It offers a chat assistant that understands project context, intelligent code completion and agent modes that can carry out larger tasks across files and run commands. The editor will feel familiar to anyone coming from VS Code, which lowers the switching cost. TRAE offers a free plan with limited usage and paid Pro tiers that add more requests and model options. It is worth a look for developers comparing AI IDEs on price and capability, particularly those who want a polished all-in-one environment.
