GitLab Premium Now Includes GitLab Duo AI Features

New GitLab Duo AI Capabilities Now Included in Premium Tier

GitLab has announced a significant expansion of its AI capabilities by integrating GitLab Duo directly into the Premium tier. This strategic move means that features previously restricted to Ultimate and trial tiers are now available to Premium users for evaluation, offering powerful tools that supercharge developer productivity through AI assistance.

With GitLab Duo, teams can benefit from features like code suggestions, code explanations, and AI-influenced merge request descriptions. These tools are designed to streamline development workflows by reducing cognitive load, automating repetitive tasks, and enabling faster and more secure code delivery. The AI-driven functionalities aim to support every phase of the software development lifecycle, from planning and development to testing and deployment.

Accessible within the GitLab UI, GitLab Duo requires no additional plugins or extensions, ensuring a seamless experience for developers. It integrates easily into existing workflows and provides enhanced visibility and collaboration across teams. Organisations using the Premium tier can now explore the productivity-boosting benefits of AI without committing to the Ultimate tier, enabling broader experimentation and value realisation.

This enhancement aligns with GitLab's strategy of offering value through a single DevSecOps platform. By enabling AI features for Premium users, GitLab encourages more teams to evaluate these advanced capabilities realistically and potentially scale their use across more project domains.
