Is it just me or the new Amazon/AWS is giving off some serious early-Satya Nadella Microsoft vibes. Kiro, Q....
Think back to when they (MSOFT) were putting out tools like TypeScript, WSL, and VS Code. It looks like Amazon is doing something similar now, building cool tech for developers without plastering the AWS brand all over it.
This doesn’t even come close to CodeCompanion[1], which doesn’t require any new LSP config/dependencies or filetype limitations.
There is no ability to share the current buffer(s) for context, no tool support. This seems like a checkbox release. You’re better off using CodeCompanion with Amazon Bedrock, which includes the added benefit of sovereignty.
I mostly use neovim for editing files remotely and have come to miss AI Autocomplete but was pleasantly surprised to find my preferred AI IDE Tool also maintains a Neovim plugin [1]. Not as many features as its VS Code and Intellij/Rider plugins, but its core autocomplete is a major productivity win.

It’s like Amazon’s Chime to everyone else’s Zoom. It works, but unless you have no other option it’s not clear why I’d choose to use it.
