Supermaven Free vs Pro: What's the Difference?
Updated
Supermaven's Free tier costs $0/month and includes fast, high-quality code suggestions that work with large codebases, but caps data retention at 7 days. Pro costs $10/month and adds the 1 million token context window, the largest and most intelligent model, coding-style adaptation, and $5/month in Supermaven Chat credits — plus a 30-day free trial. Choose Free if you want a capable copilot at no cost; choose Pro if you work in professional-size codebases or want the advanced model features.

What You Actually Gain with Pro
The three headline upgrades are the ones that change how the tool behaves on real work:
- 1 million token context window. Supermaven describes itself as the first code completion tool with a context window this large, aimed at professional-size codebases. The site's own example shows it finding a
PostMetadatatype defined elsewhere in the codebase and using that definition to suggest the correct code. - Coding-style adaptation. Pro learns your patterns; Free does not.
- Largest, most intelligent model. Free gets fast, high-quality suggestions, but the top model is Pro-only.
Pro also bundles $5/month in Supermaven Chat credits, which you can spend on the chat interface that supports GPT-4o, Claude 3.5 Sonnet, GPT-4, and other leading models.
What Stays the Same
Both tiers share the same core experience:
- Fast, high-quality code suggestions
- Works with large codebases
- 7-day data retention limit
- Compatibility with VS Code, JetBrains IDEs, and Neovim
If your main need is quick, accurate completions in an editor you already use, the Free tier covers it.
How to Decide
Stay on Free if:
- You want a capable copilot at $0/month.
- Your codebase fits comfortably without needing a 1 million token context window.
- You don't need the tool to adapt to your personal coding style.
- You don't need Chat credits.
Upgrade to Pro if:
- You work in professional-size codebases where a 1 million token context window matters.
- You want the largest, most intelligent model available.
- You want suggestions that adapt to your coding style.
- You plan to use Supermaven Chat and want the $5/month credit included.
- You need centralized user management (relevant for teams).
The 30-day free trial on Pro lets you test the context window and style adaptation against your own code before committing to $10/month.
A Note on Speed
Supermaven's site reports a latency of 250 ms versus 783 ms for a leading competitor, and claims responses 3x faster than competitors. That speed applies to the core completion experience, so it isn't a reason to pick one tier over the other — both get fast suggestions.
