Abacus AI Coding Agent FAQ

Abacus AI Coding Agent builds features and fixes bugs in your own projects. You describe the task; it reads the code, plans the change, edits the files and runs your commands and tests.

It comes three ways: Code Mode in the Abacus AI desktop app, the Abacus AI CLI in your terminal, and the VS Code extension.

One coding agent that runs on every top model:

• Automatic routing: RouteLLM picks a model for each step, frontier models for the hard problems and open-source models for everyday coding.
• All top models: Sonnet 5.5, GPT-6 Astra, GPT-6.1 Sol, Gemini 4 Argon, Opus 5.5, Qwen 3.8 and more, with open-source models like DeepSeek. You can pick one yourself at any time.
• One subscription: no separate API keys or plans for each model provider.
• ChatLLM Teams and Abacus AI Agent are included. Learn more about ChatLLM Teams and Abacus AI Agent.

In the desktop app, in your terminal and in VS Code:

• Code Mode: in the Abacus AI desktop app, on macOS, Windows and Linux. Pick a project folder and describe the task.
• Abacus AI CLI: install with curl -fsSL https://static.abacus.ai/cli/install.sh | bash (macOS, Linux, WSL) or irm https://static.abacus.ai/cli/install.ps1 | iex (Windows PowerShell), then run abacusai in your project.
• VS Code Extension: the coding agent in a panel of your editor.

By default RouteLLM chooses the model for each step of a task, so you do not have to.

You can also pick a model yourself, including Sonnet 5.5, GPT-6 Astra, GPT-6.1 Sol, Gemini 4 Argon, Opus 5.5, Qwen 3.8 and open-source models like DeepSeek.

Your subscription includes fair-use access to all supported models. Specific quotas depend on your plan tier. Please refer to your billing dashboard for the latest limits.

Abacus AI Coding Agent comes with the ChatLLM subscription.

The Basic tier ($10 per user per month) includes ChatLLM Teams and the coding agent, with up to 3 premium-model tasks a month. RouteLLM and the included models stay available after that.

The Pro tier ($20 per user per month) removes that limit and adds the Claude Fable models.

You can cancel anytime, and your subscription will remain active for the rest of the billing month.

Some users may be offered a promotional discount for the first month. After the first month, standard pricing applies.

We don't use your data for training, it's always encrypted at all times and we have enterprise compliance including SOC-2 Type-2 and HIPAA

You can cancel anytime from the ChatLLM interface. Billing subscription details are available on the desktop interface by clicking on the top right corner, and going to the Billing and Invoices page from your profile.

You can view all past payments by going to your profile, and navigating to the Billing and Invoices page. There, you will be able to see your payment details and history. You will also be able to download past invoices and update your payment information.
