Amazon CodeWhisperer Pricing
Amazon CodeWhisperer provides developers with real-time code suggestions directly in the integrated development environment (IDE). Individual developers can use CodeWhisperer for free. Organizations pay a flat “per user, per month” subscription fee for using CodeWhisperer, and there are no upfront fees or long-term commitments.
CodeWhisperer is offered in two tiers:
CodeWhisperer Individual Tier
The CodeWhisperer Individual Tier is free to use. Individual developers can sign up and sign in using an email address with an AWS Builder ID to start using CodeWhisperer within minutes. The Individual Tier provides code suggestions, reference tracking, security scans, and includes Amazon Q conversational coding.
CodeWhisperer Professional Tier
In addition to the capabilities offered in the Individual Tier, the CodeWhisperer Professional Tier offers administrative capabilities to organizations that want to provide their developers with access to CodeWhisperer. Administrators get organizational license management to centrally manage which developers in the organization should have access to CodeWhisperer. They also get organizational policy management to set service policies at the organizational level, such as whether developers are allowed to receive code suggestions that might be similar to particular open source training data.
Professional Tier users can also take advantage of the new CodeWhisperer customization capability. Organizations can use this capability to customize CodeWhisperer to generate more relevant recommendations by making it aware of an organization's internal libraries, APIs, classes or methods.
The professional tier includes access to Amazon Q Code Transformation, which accelerates language upgrades to Java 17, and Amazon Q feature development, which helps you create a plan for adding a feature. During the preview, Amazon Q capabilities are available for free and will be available with consolidated pricing plans when made generally available.
