Tabby is a self-hosted, open-source AI coding assistant that serves as an on-premises alternative to GitHub Copilot. It provides LLM-powered code completion, an answer engine, and inline chat, deployable with consumer-grade GPUs and no external database or cloud service.

Use cases

• self-hosted github copilot alternative
• run ai code completion on my own server
• set up llm code completion for my team
• ai coding assistant that works with consumer gpus
• integrate ai code suggestions into vscode
• private on-premises ai assistant for code
• chat with my codebase using local llm

When to choose

• you need code completion and AI chat without sending code to third-party clouds
• you want to run on consumer-grade GPUs with no external DBMS dependency
• you need OpenAPI integration with existing infrastructure like Cloud IDEs
• you want to use your own coding LLMs (CodeLlama, StarCoder, etc.)

When to avoid

• you prefer a fully managed cloud service with zero setup
• you have no GPU or hardware to run local model inference
• you need enterprise features like SSO on a free tier
• you only need occasional one-off code generation rather than integrated IDE assistance
