Checked October 16, 2026
- Strength. Continue is an open-source coding agent you install in the IDE you already use.
- Weakness. The Continue pricing page returned HTTP 404 on our check, so a public price grid was not confirmed.

Open-source coding agent and IDE extension. The /pricing URL returned 404 on our check.
Continue is an open-source coding agent that runs as an IDE extension. We checked the homepage, docs, and GitHub releases. continue.dev/pricing returned HTTP 404, so there is no separate pricing page in this listing — the open-source extension is the free path we could confirm. We did not install the extension.
Best for
- Developers who want an open-source copilot in the IDE
- Teams that would rather extend the editor they already use
Not ideal for
- A hosted IDE with a published price grid
- A confirmed cloud plan — the pricing URL 404’d
What we checked
Docs checked means we opened the official site and the pricing and docs URLs on this page. We did not run a successful local install, so this is not a smoke test.
No local install attempted (SaaS/desktop/extension or install not feasible without account).
Notes from this check
- continue.dev/pricing returned HTTP 404.
