Potential but missing the mark...
Via the chat, things actually worked decently, got some unique yet functional sub routines that were very surprising, however, I must be a heavy user with big requests considering I went through my monthly tokens in a single day. FYI, I only went with tier 2 for now. So I almost have no choice but to upgrade just to get a bit more use. Their VS plugin is only for VS Code and will not work with VS Pro. Website has plenty of issues, such as trying to go to profile page, error received every time. Have I reached out to support? No. This is a blunt review of everything from out the gate. When in chat, and code is returned, the preview window opens but can't actually be closed. If you are working on small projects or need simple answers, then this should work great, but the limitations, bugs, and lack for other IDEs is very off-putting personally.

Edited Dec 16, 2024Hi @roland
Apologies for the inconvenience caused.
1) Tokens in LLMs are calculated based on three factors:
1. Input: The query provided by the user.
2. Context: Additional information like files, searches, or knowledge bases attached to the query.
3. Output: The model's final response.
Simple queries with no added context consume fewer tokens. When context is attached, the system processes this data—searching, retrieving, and preparing relevant information. These steps, handled by the LLM, increase token usage proportionally.
This ensures responses are accurate and tailored to the user's needs while maintaining clarity and efficiency.
It depends upon you, how you use your tokens, we dont have any role in your consumption. To avoid any interuption, in usage, we have even released a super discounted Pro add-on at just $75/yr which gives you unlimited usage which you can try on.
2) to use CodeMate outside VS Code, we released our desktop application recently instead of releasing integrations for every single IDE, which was preferred by majority of our users.
3) There was a minor bug in Profile page which has been fixed now. You can check it again and it should work perfectly now.
4) We have noted this feedback for Preview window, and would definitely consider it in our upcoming release.
I would like to mention that maybe you havent used CodeMate properly, hence making this assumption, but CodeMate is built for complex and big projects rather than small and easy ones. Thats where our search across your Knowledge base functionality comes which maybe you havent tried. I would suggest taking an unlimited addon and then using CodeMate rigorously. You'll understand the product better once you use it for few weeks and we are always open to such feedbacks to improve our product better.
Lastly, do reachout to us at contact@codemate.ai if you're still facing any issues while using CodeMate and we would be more than happy to assist you to the best of our capabilities.
