GitLab Duo

GitLab Duo is a suite of AI-powered features that assist you while you work in GitLab. These features aim to help increase velocity and solve key pain points across the software development lifecycle.

GitLab Duo features are available in IDE extensions and the GitLab UI. Some features are also available as part of GitLab Duo Chat.

GitLab is transparent. As GitLab Duo features mature, the documentation will be updated to clearly state how and where you can access these features.
