Pieces for Developers

Pieces for Developers is an AI-enhanced productivity tool designed to capture, organize, and reuse the code snippets, links, screenshots, and context that developers encounter throughout their workday.

It acts as a personal knowledge base that automatically enriches saved materials with metadata like related tags, descriptions, programming language detection, and the context in which you found them. The standout feature is its Long-Term Memory engine, which tracks your workflow across your IDE, browser, and collaboration tools to recall what you were working on, when, and why.

You can ask the Pieces copilot questions like "what was that API endpoint I used last Tuesday?" and it retrieves the relevant snippet with surrounding context. The tool runs primarily on-device with a local LLM option, meaning your code snippets and workflow data never have to leave your machine.

Pieces integrates with VS Code, JetBrains IDEs, Chrome, Edge, Teams, Slack, and other developer tools through plugins that make saving and retrieving snippets frictionless. Its snippet transformation features let you convert code between languages, add documentation, generate tests, and refactor saved snippets using AI. For teams, Pieces allows shared snippet collections with access controls.

The desktop app is free for individual use, with team features available on paid plans.
