Void is a fork of VS Code that keeps the familiar editor surface and swaps the AI layer for one you control. Instead of routing code to a single hosted provider, teams can aim Void at local or self-hosted models.

What problem it solves

AI coding assistants are increasingly central to how developers work, but many ship as closed, single-vendor services. Void answers the teams who need that help without sending source to a backend they cannot inspect.

When it fits, and when it does not

It suits organisations with strict data-handling rules or a preference for local models. If you have no constraints on hosted AI and want the smoothest managed experience, a first-party assistant may be less setup.
