JetBrains AI Assistant

Coding Assistants

Overview

The native AI layer built into the JetBrains IDE family (IntelliJ, PyCharm, WebStorm). It combines multi-model chat, inline completions, and the autonomous 'Junie' coding agent with deep static-analysis context.

JetBrains AI Assistant is the AI layer woven into IntelliJ, PyCharm, WebStorm, and the rest of the JetBrains family, and it leans on the IDEs' renowned static analysis to ground its suggestions. Alongside multi-model chat and inline completions, it includes Junie, an autonomous agent that can carry out larger tasks within the IDE. The combination of LLMs and JetBrains' code intelligence yields edits that are unusually context-aware.
