Augment introduces its team coding assistant and trial

Augment Code introduced repository-aware coding assistance for development teams, with IDE chat, completions and suggested edits available to try.

Coding assistance with team context

Augment Code introduced its developer assistant on October 24, 2024. The announcement offered a trial for development teams, with chat, code completion and suggested edits in IDE workflows. It emphasized context from an organization's codebase rather than only a single file. [1]

The milestone records access to a concrete coding product. It does not describe a release of model weights or establish unrestricted general availability beyond the offered trial. The announcement page was later updated; that update does not move the original introduction into 2026. [1]
