Trae

Trae is an AI-powered development environment from ByteDance. The editor is built on VS Code, so it feels familiar to anyone who has used it and supports the usual extensions and settings. It includes an AI chat that explains and edits code, smart autocomplete and an agent mode in which the assistant plans a task on its own, creates and changes files and runs commands. Trae is available on Windows and macOS. The free plan lets you try the core features with limits, while paid plans unlock stronger models and higher request limits.

In the Trae section of the marketplace you can buy a subscription, meaning a paid plan set up on your account, accounts with a plan already active, and services such as help with payment when you have no suitable card, plus setup and onboarding. Each category covers its own kind of product.

What to check when buying: ask exactly which plan you get and for how long, and whether it will be added to your own account or you will receive a separate one. Find out whether access is personal or shared, because on a shared account other users may see your request history and fragments of your code. If the seller needs to sign in to your account, ask in advance which details are required.

Payment runs through a marketplace deal: the money stays with the marketplace until you have made sure the plan is active and confirmed receipt. If the subscription is not connected or does not match the listing, open a dispute before confirming and a moderator will review the deal chat. An optional guarantee package is available for accounts. Tip: as soon as you get access, open the account settings in Trae and check the plan name and renewal date.
