Yes — 2 of these are marked fully free with no paid plan attached: Continue and Tabby. The rest are freemium, trial or paid, and each row states which.
What should I look for in AI code autocomplete tools?
Start with what you need to do: get inline suggestions inside your existing IDE. Then check the pricing tier, because "free" here means no paid plan at all while "freemium" means a free tier under paid plans. Every tool on this page lists both.
