Sweep
AI for JetBrains IDEs
Overview
Sweep is an AI coding assistant and intelligent agent built specifically for JetBrains IDEs, including IntelliJ IDEA, PyCharm, WebStorm, Android Studio, GoLand, PhpStorm, Rider, CLion, and RubyMine. Utilizing custom LLMs optimized for performance and security, Sweep provides low-latency tab autocomplete and code generation inside developer environments. Beyond code completion, Sweep includes an AI agent capable of indexing entire repositories for context-aware code search, answering technical questions, and conducting automated code reviews across branch diffs. It also integrates with external developer workflows through Remote MCP Server support and web search tools. Designed for team and enterprise compliance, Sweep offers SOC 2 certification and a dedicated Privacy Mode with zero data retention, ensuring project code is never used to train machine learning models.
Best for: Developers and software engineering teams using JetBrains IDEs who want fast AI autocomplete, automated code reviews, and codebase indexing.
