A few months after GitHub Copilot became a subscription service, Codeium arrives with a simple pitch: AI code completion, free for individual developers.

On October 28, 2022 the team announces the Codeium beta, with a Discord server to collect user feedback. The product is built on the machine learning infrastructure the company had developed earlier.

In the following months Codeium spreads to many editors: after VS Code come JetBrains IDEs, then Jupyter, Vim and Neovim, Emacs and a Chrome extension.
