Qodo (formerly Codium) aims at the part of coding AI most tools skip, generating meaningful tests, flagging behaviour changes, and reviewing pull requests.

A strong complement to a completion tool like Copilot rather than a replacement, especially on teams that care about test coverage.

AES Tech verdict

Qodo is strongest for developers who want AI focused on test coverage and correctness. The main trade-off is that narrower than a general assistant, so compare it with the alternatives below before committing to a paid plan.
