* Monorepo & Dependency Handling: KAEditor was specifically architected with large codebases and monorepos in mind. We maintain a persistent, structured index of your entire project (including multiple packages, cross-repo dependencies, and shared libraries), which our AI assistant uses to provide contextually accurate suggestions and answers. That means the assistant can understand deep dependency graphs and trace logic across packages—something many AI tools still struggle with.
* Accuracy & Latency: Compared to Cursor and GitHub Copilot, KAEditor consistently offers:
- Higher context relevance due to whole-project awareness (not limited to just open tabs or a small sliding window).
- More deterministic outputs for complex tasks like test generation, architectural questions, or multi-file edits.
- Low-latency performance thanks to optimized local context caching and background prefetching. In most workflows, responses are near-instant—no lag when jumping between files or asking about different components.
* Bonus: You can even configure how much of your codebase to load into the assistant’s memory—so it scales gracefully whether you’re working in a 10-file repo or a massive monorepo.
We’ve benchmarked internally and found KAEditor handles large-scale production code significantly more smoothly than most alternatives, especially when it comes to multi-file reasoning and latency under load.
Love the focus on codebase-aware AI and inline editing—those are real pain points for modern dev teams. The privacy-first approach and self-hosting option are a huge plus too, especially for orgs that are cautious about code security.
Curious how KAEditor handles large monorepos or complex dependency graphs. Does the assistant scale well in those cases? Also, would love to hear more about how it compares to existing tools like Cursor or GitHub Copilot in terms of accuracy and latency.
