Static analysis across 40+ languages, now aimed at checking AI-written code before it reaches a pull request.
SonarQube analyses source for bugs, vulnerabilities, secrets and quality-gate breaches across 30 to 40-plus languages, and plugs into GitHub, GitLab, Azure DevOps and Bitbucket. Sonar's AI line adds agentic analysis that inspects code while it is being generated instead of after the PR opens, cross-file bug detection using a cached project index, a remediation agent that fixes findings and opens pull requests once verified, Gitar for review-and-fix loops until the build passes, and SonarSweep for cleaning up LLM output. Cloud has a permanent free tier capped at 50,000 lines on private projects; the Team plan starts at $34 a month. The vendor is SonarSource Sarl in Switzerland.
SonarQube Cloud Team starts at $34/month, recommended for teams under 50 developers. Enterprise is quoted annually. The free tier never expires but caps private projects at 50,000 lines of code. Self-managed SonarQube Server editions - Developer, Enterprise, Data Center - are priced on a separate page.
Use tool โThe established static-analysis platform repositioned around AI-written code, and the repositioning is more than marketing: analysing during generation and using cached project context for cross-file bugs are the two things single-file review bots genuinely miss. The catch is that the AI agents sit on top of a platform you have to adopt wholesale, and the free tier's 50k-line cap runs out quickly on a real repo.
Watch out: The AI capabilities are spread across several named products - Gitar, SonarSweep, the remediation agent - so confirm which ones your tier actually includes before buying.
