Zed

Code editor for collaborative development with integrated AI, external agents, and bring-your-own-provider workflows.

Open a project, select an agent or model provider, and inspect each proposed code change before applying it.

Access and pricing: Personal is free with 2,000 accepted edit predictions. Pro is $10/month with included tokens and usage-based AI billing; your own provider can also charge separately.

What it does well

Zed is a code editor built for collaboration, with integrated AI, external agents and bring-your-own-provider workflows. The pricing page confirms that the free Personal plan lets you use your own API keys or external agents, so you can try the editor without paying for Zed-hosted models.

Who gets the most from it

Developers who like a fast native editor and want to choose their own AI provider will find it flexible. Teams can look at Business for admin controls and unified billing.

Limits to check before you commit

The pricing page lists Pro at $10 per month with unlimited edit predictions and $5 of tokens included, then usage-based billing at API list price plus 10%, with a spending cap you can set. A 14-day Pro trial includes $5 of usage on one hosted model and requires no credit card. Business is $30 per seat per month, with no bundled credits and no trial. The page did not repeat the 2,000-prediction free limit stated in our existing listing, so check the current figure before relying on it.
