    Refact is a Copilot alternative that has an autocomplete, integrated AI chat and powerful editing. We use our own models that are fine-tuned for each language, they are smaller than the one in Copilot, but are very powerful for their size. On certain tasks, you will not notice much difference: the model look up and down, and the context window is the same. Try it for free for JetBrains and VS Code.
