Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Cody

  • Sourcegraph now publishes a single Enterprise plan starting at $16K, with no free or individual Pro tier listed on the pricing page
  • sourcegraph.com/cody redirects to the documentation rather than a Cody product or pricing page
  • AI features are metered as credits included per user, and exceeding the allocation requires buying a higher volume bucket
  • Volume credit buckets are sold as an add-on rather than included
  • A customer success manager and premium support are optional paid extras on top of the Enterprise plan
  • Standard support is 24x5 rather than 24x7, with round-the-clock coverage sold as an upgrade
  • The published $16K figure is a starting price that scales with team size, so the actual cost is quoted rather than listed

Warp

  • Limited cloud agents access on free tier
  • Limited collaboration features on free tier
  • Limited cloud conversation storage on free tier
  • IME input not properly handled on macOS (discarded during command or Agent output)
  • Terminal zoom functionality does not properly resize grid in TUI applications, causing misaligned rendering
  • Multi-language (i18n) support missing as of documentation
  • Requires macOS 10.14 or later (excludes older Mac hardware)
  • Requires Windows 10 build 1903 or later (excludes pre-build 1903 systems)
  • Linux requires glibc 2.31 or higher and GPU support (OpenGL ES 3.0+ or Vulkan) for rendering
