Perspective
Tabnine was established as Codota in 2013 by Dror Weiss and Eran Yahav in Tel Aviv, Israel.[7][8][9] Tabnine, initially founded under the name Codota, was created to develop tools based on over a decade of academic research at the Technion.[10][11][12][13]
Codota, the predecessor of Tabnine, secured $2 million in seed investment in June 2017. Following this, in June 2018, the company introduced the first AI-based code completion for Java IDE.[14][10][13]
In 2019, Codota acquired a product called Tabnine, which used the newly available large-language model technology to provide generative AI for software code across a broader range of programming languages across five IDEs. Codota replaced its earlier approach to code generation with this new approach to generative AI.[15][16][10][17][18]
The company secured a Series A round of funding in April 2020, raising $12 million.[14][19][20][21][22]
On May 26, 2021, Codota changed its name to Tabnine and underwent a corresponding rebranding.[23]
By April 2022, Tabnine reached over one million users. In June of the same year, Tabnine launched models that could predict full lines and snippets of code.[24] The same year it raised $15.5 mln in a funding round led co-led by Qualcomm Ventures.[25]
In June 2023, Tabnine introduced an AI-powered chat agent, enabling developers to use natural language to generate code, to explain code, to generate tests and documentation, and to propose fixes to code.[26]
In November 2023, Tabnine closed a Series B round of funding, raising $25 million to scale the company’s operations.[27]
