Enterprise-grade AI has finally arrived where Git can’t.
Tabnine now brings trusted, context-aware AI to Perforce Helix Core—enabling the world’s most advanced engineering teams to move faster, stay in flow, and maintain complete control.

Modern engineering organizations architect the systems that move economies, defend nations, and power the future. These environments are complex, governed, and designed for scale. For many of these teams, Perforce Helix Core is the foundation of their software development lifecycle. For years, teams working inside Helix Core environments have been underserved by AI tooling. Most assistants fail to understand large-scale architecture, miss important branching context, or bypass security protocols altogether.

Today, Tabnine is introducing native support for Helix Core within our Enterprise Codebase Connections capability. With this addition, Tabnine enables AI-driven development inside the environments that power the most advanced systems in the world. This release builds on our existing integrations with GitHub, GitLab, and Bitbucket, further extending Tabnine’s role as the AI software development platform for every engineering team across every system.

Tabnine integrates directly into the IDEs your teams already use, including Visual Studio, IntelliJ, VS Code, and Eclipse. It works across your entire technology stack, supporting more than 600 programming languages, frameworks, and libraries. And it connects to all your SCMs—including now, Perforce Helix Core. The integration brings deep understanding of your architecture, your branching strategies, and the organizational standards that define how your team builds software. Tabnine provides accurate, explainable AI code recommendations, fully aligned with the structure and requirements of your Perforce repositories.

Tabnine operates entirely within your environment—on-premises, in a private VPC, in an air-gapped deployment, or SaaS—without ever transmitting code externally. Your development processes remain secure, controlled, and compliant with internal and regulatory requirements. Tabnine gives developers full visibility into suggestions, explanations, and references. It supports engineering leaders with fine-grained enforcement of standards, policies, and guardrails—applied in real-time across every phase of development. The platform runs inside your perimeter, integrates with your identity systems, and respects your governance model. Sensitive IP stays protected. Development remains accountable. And every line of code can be traced, understood, and validated.

Tabnine includes specialized agents for each phase of the software development lifecycle—supported by an AI pair programmer that works seamlessly in any environment. Developers can explore and understand existing systems, transform requirements into code, generate and update documentation, test with confidence, resolve technical debt, and modernize legacy systems. Every agent is designed to accelerate productivity while reinforcing your organization’s engineering practices. Underpinning the entire experience is Tabnine’s Enterprise Context Engine, which delivers fine-grained personalization, project-specific insight, and policy-aware assistance—tailored to how your teams build software.

Perforce Helix Core is the version control backbone for many of the world’s most sophisticated software systems. It manages terabytes of structured data, supports collaborative workflows at global scale, and enforces the precision and performance these systems require. With native support for Helix Core, Tabnine now extends its capabilities to these environments—enabling development teams to move faster, reduce complexity, and improve throughput, all while maintaining the highest standards of control, compliance, and technical integrity.

Tabnine for Perforce Helix Core is available now for all Enterprise customers. If you’re ready to bring trustworthy AI into your most critical systems—without compromising compliance, control, or context—request a tailored demo or join our next Tabnine Office Hours. For current customers, reach out to your account lead to activate the integration today.

Tabnine is designed for engineering organizations building what the world depends on—systems where quality, scale, and trust are foundational. With support for Helix Core, we’re expanding what’s possible.
