Supermaven
Code completion with a 1M-token context window — knows your entire codebase as you type.
Supermaven is a code completion with a 1M-token context window — knows your entire codebase as you type. Offers a 1 million token context window for code completion.
About Supermaven
Supermaven was a code-completion tool built around a very large context window, created by Jacob Jackson — who had earlier founded Tabnine.
Its pitch was context: a one-million-token window meant it could hold your whole codebase as you typed, running on a proprietary model called Babble with no bring-your-own-key.
Note the tense. In 2024 Supermaven was acquired by Anysphere, the company behind Cursor, and the standalone product was wound down with users migrated over.
If you came here for it, its context-first idea now lives inside Cursor.
