Our verdict: Amazon Q Developer
Best for teams already hosting on AWS who want a code assistant integrated with their cloud infrastructure and existing security tools. Not for you if your stack is not on AWS: most of Q Developer's added value lies in its deep integration with Amazon services.
Our verdict: JetBrains AI Assistant
Best for teams already equipped with JetBrains IDEs who want AI integrated natively without switching editors. Not for you if you're seeking unlimited AI usage at a fixed price: the rechargeable credit system makes the actual bill hard to predict in case of intensive Junie agent usage.
