Sweep is an AI coding assistant purpose-built for JetBrains. We built Sweep from the ground up to support users of IntelliJ, PyCharm, and Android Studio. Join our discord: https://discord.gg/sweep Try Sweep: https://docs.sweep.dev/#install-sweep
I use this daily. It's 100x better than Github Copilot X and Code Interpreter.
A marvelous first-step & and truly incredible first look at the future of programming — not to mention the future of tech companies. I am genuinely astonished at the 1 star reviews: they sound SUS and make me suspicious they were written by a competitor of yours. Consider me a huge supporter — please feel free to reach out if you want some usability testing session feedback from my team and I using the product :) - John @BEASTMODE on twitter
I've been using Sweep for a few months and its scary that with most tasks it gets everything right. Every time I try it and I see a complete PR it blows me away. The rate of improvement is also crazy, I tried to have sweep do something tricky few months ago and it failed, but then a few days ago I tried that same task again and it got it perfect! Definitely give it a try.

Hey Product Hunt! 👋
Back in 2023, Kevin and I went through Y Combinator (Summer '23 batch) and originally built Sweep as a bot to turn GitHub issues into pull requests.
It sounded great, but it was really challenging. We just couldn't reach the level of reliability and usability we aimed for.
Last December, we decided things weren't working out. We needed to try something different.
💡 After talking with our users, we discovered something surprising:
JetBrains users were consistently unhappy 😕 with their AI coding experience. The existing plugins simply didn't have the features or smoothness that VSCode users enjoyed with Cursor or GitHub Copilot.
Even though we weren't originally JetBrains users ourselves, we jumped in to experience it firsthand - and quickly understood the frustration. We noticed a real gap because all of the AI code generation companies were (and still are!) laser focused on winning VSCode. It felt like an important problem that wasn't getting the attention it deserved.
So we pivoted and built a JetBrains-focused AI assistant. It's something we genuinely enjoy using every day, and early feedback from users has been amazing.
🎉 We're really excited to finally share Sweep with everyone today!
We'd love your perspective too - what's your biggest frustration when coding in JetBrains? Let us know below! 👇

@shenjun 100%! What's your current coding setup today Jun?
@william_zeng1 I have been a JetBrains user for 10 years. However, after Cursor came out, my main focus shifted to using Cursor. I only use JetBrains when I need to manually edit code because the AI functionality of JetBrains is not very good. So very happy to see that your product can help fill this gap.
