Enhancing Duet AI for Developers through our partner ecosystem

Today, we’re announcing that Duet AI for Developers is now Generally Available (GA), along with new partner enhancements that will bring even greater capabilities to customers. All of our Duet AI services will incorporate Gemini, our newest and most capable model, over the next few weeks.

Google Cloud’s strategy is to meet developers where they are by embracing third-party tools that help them build applications quickly, accelerate time to value, and remove friction throughout the software development and delivery process. We are committed to extending these capabilities through our partners, and thanks to Cloud Code, you can already use Duet AI with many popular IDEs such as VSCode, and JetBrains IDEs like IntelliJ, PyCharm, GoLand, and Webstorm.

Let’s explore how Duet AI for Developers will empower organizations through our growing, open ecosystem.

Enhancing Duet AI with partners

Duet AI for Developers is already trained on an extensive collection of publicly available information and code from open-source and third-party platforms. Today, we’re announcing our largest set of partner enhancements with Duet AI yet. More than 25 companies will add support for developers on Google Cloud, enabling us to train and optimize Duet AI for their platforms, so that developers can be more productive and agile. These new capabilities will begin launching in Q1 of 2024.

Our partners will support developers leveraging Google Cloud in two ways:

• First, our code-assist partners will help Duet AI provide technology-aware coding assistance for popular products in the developer ecosystem. For example, a developer writing code using MongoDB will be able to ask Duet AI for Developers, “Filter customer orders over $50 in the past 30 days by geography, and then calculate total revenue by location,” and Duet AI for Developers will then use information from MongoDB’s products to suggest code to complete the task, so developers can build even faster.
• Second, our knowledge-base partners will allow Duet AI to provide easy access to documentation and knowledge sources for popular developer products. With knowledge base partners, Duet AI can easily retrieve partner-specific information, like how to best resolve common production issues and vulnerabilities, or how to automate software tests for quality assurance. This means developers can stay focused on coding, and easily retrieve information from documentation, knowledge base articles, security policies, and more.
