AI‑powered code editor that keeps your data private
Void is a privacy‑first AI coding environment that lets you run any model locally, visualize checkpoints, and interact with providers without data retention, built on the VS Code foundation.
Void is a privacy‑first AI‑enhanced development environment built on the VS Code codebase. It lets developers attach any large language model—hosted locally or accessed via API—to their workspace, run AI agents on the current codebase, and receive suggestions without sending source files to external services.
The editor provides checkpointing and visual diff tools so you can track AI‑driven changes step‑by‑step. Direct messaging to model providers ensures zero data retention, making it suitable for regulated industries. Installation follows standard VS Code extension practices; you can clone the repository, install dependencies, and launch the IDE, or use pre‑built binaries from the website. While core development is temporarily paused, the community continues to contribute plugins and model integrations.
When teams consider Void, these hosted platforms usually appear on the same shortlist.
Looking for a hosted option? These are the services engineering teams benchmark against before choosing open source.
Refactoring legacy code with AI suggestions
Accelerates safe updates while preserving functionality
Generating unit tests on the fly
Improves test coverage with minimal manual effort
Exploring alternative implementations
Rapid prototyping of different design approaches
Auditing code changes with visual checkpoints
Provides clear version history of AI‑driven edits
Yes, Void supports any model that can be accessed via API or run locally.
No, messages are sent directly to providers without retaining your data.
Most VS Code extensions work out of the box because Void is a fork of VS Code.
Clone the repository, run the standard VS Code setup commands, or download binaries from the official website.
Core IDE development is temporarily paused while novel AI coding ideas are explored; community contributions continue.
