Zed: Edit predictions are leaving the free Personal plan on October 7
8 points by lumpa 4 days ago | hide | past | favorite | 2 comments
Just got an email saying this:

> On October 7, 2026, edit predictions will no longer be included with Zed’s free Personal plan. They will remain available on the Pro, Student, and Business plans.

> Edit predictions require ongoing inference infrastructure, so we’re moving them to plans that support those costs.

> You’re receiving this email because you’ve recently used edit predictions on the Personal plan. If you want to continue using predictions after October 7, you can:

> Upgrade to Pro

> Self-host Zeta 2.1 (see our docs)

> Use one of the third-party providers we support

> Otherwise, no action is required.

> — The Zed team

No big deal, I pay for zed plus/pro/max, whatever the subscription is called. I don’t miss any of the paid AI features when I switch laptops and can’t be bothered to login.

It’s a good editor, but the AI features are forgettable, and probably a distraction away from the core value proposition. They should sell commercial licenses like IntelliJ and be done with this AI monetization dilemma.


Zeta 2.1 is an 8b model, at 4Q surely it can fit on/work on most computers in the last 10 years??
