Exciting to see more teams take on the code search problem - modern pure regex definitely is a suboptimal solution.
Just to objectively highlight some of the similarities and differences between Bloop and Codeium Search (Codeium also provides Autocomplete) to a user:
- Both are free for individuals
- Both use a mix of AI and regex
- Bloop has both free local and paid cloud offerings, Codeium only works locally (but therefore doesn't work as well on super large codebases)
- Codeium uses custom proprietary embedding models so no dependency on OpenAI and no code is sent to a third party AI
