Questions about Blue.
The essentials: how to start, how costs work, and how to keep your project in your hands.
What is Blue?
Blue is an AI coding assistant developed, owned, and operated by Imergene, made specifically for students. It brings code explanations, conversations, and project work into a Windows desktop app and a VS Code extension. Read about Blue by Imergene.
How can Blue help with student projects?
Ask Blue to explain unfamiliar code, plan a feature, inspect a project, or help debug a problem. Review its changes and ask why they work. Follow your course's AI policy for assessed work. Our student guide includes a practical task for evaluating an assistant.
Where can I install Blue?
Download Blue Desktop for Windows through Microsoft, or install Blue Coding Assistant in VS Code. If the VS Code command-line tool is available, use this command:
Then sign in, choose a model provider, and open your project folder. See the setup documentation.
Is Blue free, and are model requests included?
Blue Lite is a free entry plan. With OpenRouter BYOK, model usage is billed by your provider to your own key, where applicable. Free models can still have rate limits. Blue Pro uses Blue Credits for selected premium models; free app access does not mean unlimited free premium inference.
What does the Blue subscription cost?
Blue costs ₹149 for 30 days, ₹399 for 90 days, or ₹1,299 for 365 days. These are prepaid access periods with no auto-renewal. Model-provider costs remain separate. Compare eligible features and Blue Pro credits on the pricing page.
Does every action use Blue Credits?
No. The Blue subscription pays for app features and does not require Blue Credits when using your own model-provider key. With BYOK, any model usage charges come from your provider, not your Blue Credits balance. Blue Credits pay for model usage through Blue Pro. A code edit, local test, or deployment is not a separately priced Blue Credit action; AI model calls during that work can incur usage costs through your selected connection. See the separate access and model-usage options.
Can Blue run tests, and does it guarantee correct code?
With a project folder, Blue can run relevant commands and checks using your local tools, subject to permissions and availability. Read the actual results and review changed files. AI-generated code can be wrong; a failed or uncompleted check is not a passing test, and no assistant guarantees correctness or security.
