Reviewer scorecard
“Free tier with no restrictions is remarkable. Completion quality rivals Copilot for most languages.”
“The free tier is genuinely usable. Rare for this category.”
“Hard to argue with free. The enterprise features and Windsurf IDE show they have a real business model beyond the free tier.”
“This is the kind of tool that makes you wonder how you worked without it.”
“Giving away code completion to win IDE market share with Windsurf is a smart long-term play.”
