Windsurf is an AI-native code editor from the Codeium lineage, acquired by Cognition in 2025, combining inline completion with agentic multi-file editing (Cascade). It is a standalone editor, while plugins keep its completion available in other IDEs. A free tier exists, with Pro plans at roughly $15/mo. It supports choosing among multiple underlying models, and enterprise deployments offer self-hosted options inherited from the Codeium business. The ownership change is recent; plans and packaging are worth re-checking.
