Tabnine, maker of the Tabnine AI coding assistant, has unveiled the Tabnine Code Review Agent, an AI-powered software validation agent that helps users to produce higher quality, more secure code.
Now available in a private preview for Tabnine enterprise customers, the Tabnine Code Review Agent is designed to enforce a development team’s best practices and standards throughout the software development process. A demo of the tool can be found on YouTube. With the Tabnine Code Review Agent, users can codify institutional knowledge, corporate policies, and software development standards. Guidance offered by the tool builds on Tabnine’s approach to AI code generation through awareness and understanding of locally available code, data in the IDE, and a company’s software repository, Tabnine said.
“AI in software development is about more than generating code. Its greatest power might be in helping to improve quality, security, and compliance of code in real time,” Tabnine president Peter Guagenti said in a statement. “By reviewing code at the pull request and ensuring that the code presented matches each team’s unique expectations, we are saving engineering teams significant time and effort while applying a level of rigor to the automation of code review that was never possible with static code analysis,” Guagenti said. Tabnine offers an approach to personalization that allows agents to behave like an onboarded member of an engineering team familiar with a company’s ways of working, he added.
