AskCodi
Multi-model AI dev chat — GPT-5, Claude and Gemini from $5/month
Overview
AskCodi, from Assistiv AI of São Paulo, has evolved from a code-snippet helper into a multi-model developer platform: chat with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Llama, Mistral, Qwen and DeepSeek, plus custom agents and an OpenAI-compatible API, on token plans from $5/month with a 1M-token free tier.

ASEAN Perspective

AskCodi has quietly become a different product: less budget coding assistant, more multi-model gateway. One subscription buys chat access to GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Llama, Mistral, Qwen and DeepSeek, with custom agents, VS Code and JetBrains extensions, and an OpenAI-compatible API — so the old "limited API" criticism no longer applies. Token-based pricing is the draw: a 1M-token free tier, paid plans from $5/month, and tokens that never expire, which reviewers consistently rate as fairer than seat-based rivals — SoftwareReviews has it beating Copilot on plan-to-renew and cost fairness. It won't match the codebase-aware, agentic depth of Copilot, Cursor or Claude Code, and complex generations can come back incomplete. For solo developers, students and cost-sensitive teams across ASEAN who want frontier models without frontier pricing, it's a strong value play.
What people say
Five dollars a month is the headline. AskCodi's token-based plans start there, the free tier includes 1M tokens monthly, paid tiers scale from 4M to 160M, and tokens never expire — a structure users consistently rate as fairer than seat-based rivals. SoftwareReviews' 2026 data puts AskCodi ahead of GitHub Copilot on plan-to-renew (98% vs 96%) and cost-fairness satisfaction (85% vs 82%), with ratings clustering around 4.5–4.8/5 across review platforms.
The product has quietly pivoted. What launched in 2022 as a snippet-and-explain coding assistant is now a multi-model developer platform: one subscription covers chat with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Llama, Mistral, Qwen and DeepSeek, plus custom agents, VS Code and JetBrains extensions, and an OpenAI-compatible API for wiring those models into other tools. That last part retires the old "no API access" criticism entirely.
The caveats are about scale and depth. The company behind it, Assistiv AI LTDA, is a small São Paulo-registered operation founded by Sachin Sharma and Shreyans Bhansali, claiming roughly 300,000–350,000 users — believable but self-reported, and the formal review base on G2 and Capterra is thin despite the high scores. On capability, it isn't codebase-aware or agentic the way Copilot, Cursor or Claude Code are, and users note that longer generations sometimes come back with blanks left to fill in.
As a cheap way to run frontier models side by side — particularly for students, freelancers and cost-sensitive ASEAN teams — it's one of the better value plays in the category. As a primary engineering assistant on a large repo, it isn't the tool.
