Codota, the predecessor of Tabnine, secured $2 million in seed investment in June 2017. Following this, in June 2018, the company introduced the first AI-based code completion for Java IDE.{{Cite web |last=Ravet |first=Hagar |date=2020-04-27 |title=Israeli Startup Codota Raises $12 Million in Series A Round Led By Khosla Ventures |url=https://www.calcalistech.com/ctech/articles/0,7340,L-3812190,00.html |access-date=2024-04-19 |website=CTECH - www.calcalistech.com}}

In 2019, Codota acquired a product called Tabnine, which used the newly available large-language model technology to provide generative AI for software code across a broader range of programming languages across five IDEs. Codota replaced its earlier approach to code generation with this new approach to generative AI.{{Cite web |last=Vincent |first=James |date=2019-07-24 |title=This AI-powered autocompletion software is Gmail's Smart Compose for coders |url=https://www.theverge.com/2019/7/24/20708542/coding-autocompleter-deep-tabnine-ai-deep-learning-smart-compose |access-date=2024-04-19 |website=The Verge |language=en}}{{Cite web |date=2019-12-16 |title=Codota acquires TabNine |url=https://www.martechcube.com/codota-acquires-tabnine/ |access-date=2024-04-19 |website=MarTech Cube |language=en-US}}{{Cite web |date=2019-12-16 |title=Israeli AI-assisted software development firm Codota acquires TabNine |url=https://siliconangle.com/2019/12/16/israeli-ai-assisted-software-development-firm-codota-acquires-tabnine/ |access-date=2024-04-19 |website=SiliconANGLE |language=en-US}}
