Sourcegraph
Code search and code intelligence platform for large, multi-repo codebases, with Cody offered to enterprise customers. Amp, the agentic coding tool Sourcegraph built, became a separate company in December 2025.
Teams that want an agentic coding harness (Amp) with public pricing, or enterprises that already run Sourcegraph code search and need AI on large repos.
Buyers still expecting Cody Free/Pro self-serve chat, or orgs that only want a lightweight autocomplete plugin with a single flat seat fee.
Verdict
Sourcegraph remains a recommend for enterprises that pair code search and code intelligence with AI credits, and for developers who want Amp's agentic workflow with honest public tiers. Amp became a separate company in December 2025, so Amp pricing and product changes now come from that company, and Sourcegraph's own AI path is Cody inside Enterprise, which has been Enterprise-only since Cody Free and Pro ended in July 2025. Practitioners like the CLI-plus-editor model, subagents, and multi-model routing; polish still trails some rivals on day-one UX. Budget Amp usage as credits that can climb on long threads.

Review Excerpts
Excerpts from public reviews and forum discussions of Sourcegraph, plus representative buyer views drawn from public information. Paid reviews and pay-for-play sites were excluded.
“If you like Claude Code but prefer an agent that doesn't ask for review on each file edit, or miss the IDE for reviewing diffs, I'd humbly submit you try out Amp. It has both a CLI and VS Code extension.”
“Sourcegraph Amp is pretty good as well albeit lacking a lot of the polish and features of Claude Code. But I sometimes reach for it for code review in particular since it calls out to o3 via its "oracle" tool.”
“AMP also provides really important features of a harness that others haven't quite caught up on.”
“Cody Free and Pro are gone, so a developer who wants a cheap chat seat now looks elsewhere or has an Enterprise conversation.”
