At Kilo (VScode plugin, BYOK so works with Claude Pro) we just rolled out autocomplete to 10% of our user base on Friday and we're happy with what we're seeing. The autocomplete is based a Mistal model (Codestral) that is fast and accurate https://mistral.ai/news/codestral We copied a lot of code from Continue.dev (best open source autocomplete in our view). We plan to roll it out to 100% of our users no later than Tuesday. The autocomplete is consumption priced (no markup) but the cost per month should be low single digit dollars.


Kilo’s been on my list of tools to try anyway. Good to hear you’ve got a strategy for useful autocomplete. Any idea how it compares with Supermaven both in terms of speed and quality? Supermaven really had found a sweet spot for both. I found LLM autocomplete was generally more annoying than it was worth prior to Supermaven.


Sorry but I'm don't know how Kilo autocomplete compares with Supermaven. Maybe someone else does?

BTW For completeness, while we’re still in rollout for existing users autocomplete is default on for all new users already.


It doesn't look near instant like Supermaven because the default delay before suggestions is 3 s.
