GitLab is a software delivery platform that combines planning, source control, CI/CD pipelines and security scanning in one product. Founded in October 2011 by Sid Sijbrandij and Dmitriy Zaporozhets, it is a public company headquartered in San Francisco with roughly 2,500 employees.
Its AI features sit under the GitLab Duo name. GitLab Duo Agent Platform applies AI agents across the software lifecycle, and Code Suggestions gives AI code completion inside the editor. AI usage on paid plans draws on GitLab Credits, a metered allowance included per user each month.
The Free plan costs $0 and covers 5 users per top-level group, 400 compute minutes a month and 10 GiB of storage; AI features there require buying a GitLab Credits add-on. Premium costs $29 per user a month billed annually, with 10,000 compute minutes and $12 of included credits per user. Ultimate is custom-priced with $24 of credits per user and 50,000 compute minutes. All prices are USD from the company’s pricing page.
