About This Tool

Bito brings the power of advanced LLMs (like GPT-4 and Claude) directly into your development workflow. It lives as a sidebar in your IDE (VS Code, JetBrains) and helps you automate mundane tasks like writing documentation, generating test cases, and refactoring code, all while prioritizing code privacy.

How to Use

  1. 1. Install the Bito extension for VS Code or IntelliJ.
  2. 2. Highlight a block of code in your editor.
  3. 3. Right-click and select “Explain Code” or “Generate Unit Tests.”
  4. 4. Use the chat sidebar to ask complex architectural questions.
  5. 5. Use the Bito CLI to automate pull request reviews.

Use Cases

Bito is ideal for developers working with legacy codebases who need quick explanations, QA engineers who need to generate edge-case tests, and senior engineers who want to automate documentation writing.

Privacy & Security

A key differentiator for Bito is its approach to privacy. It offers enterprise-grade security where user code is not used to train the public models. This makes it a safer choice for companies sensitive about their IP.

Shortcuts

Bito comes with pre-engineered prompt shortcuts. Instead of typing “Check this code for performance issues,” you can simply click a button in the UI. These templates are optimized to get the best responses from the underlying LLM.

Limitations

While excellent at snippet generation and unit tests, it acts more as a chatbot within the IDE rather than a real-time autocomplete engine (like Copilot’s “ghost text”). It is best used for problem-solving rather than typing assistance.

Bito CLI

Beyond the IDE, Bito offers a Command Line Interface tool. This allows DevOps engineers to pipe output from logs directly into Bito to diagnose server errors or generate git commit messages automatically.
