The Growth Engine
Local Inference for IP Protection: Tabnine tacticaly successfully competed with GitHub Copilot by being the 'Private-First' alternative. Their growth engine is 'The Local Model'—allowing the entire AI engine to run on a developer's local machine or within a private air-gapped server. By marketing specifically to the security-conscious CTO, they became the only viable choice for industries like defense, banking, and high-tech manufacturing, where sending source code to a 3rd party cloud is a non-starter.
