Amp is Sourcegraph's agentic coding product for writing, searching, and shipping code. After Sourcegraph ended Cody Free and Pro in 2025, it directed individual developers to Amp while keeping Cody as an enterprise assistant. Amp runs as a CLI, in editors, on the web, and in remote machines called orbs that keep working after you close your laptop. It is sold as monthly Megawatt and Gigawatt subscriptions, with unconstrained usage billing for teams.
