GPT-5.5 + Claude Sonnet 4.6. Free $20 trial. No card required. Zed just hands it to you. Most AI IDEs run on Electron. Zed is built in Rust - rendering goes directly through Metal, DirectX, Vulkan. No Node runtime. No Chromium overhead. The result: responses that feel instant compared to Cursor or VS Code. >AI is built into the core of the editor, not added as an extension. That's the difference between native and bolted-on. Here's the setup: → zed(.)dev - sign in via GitHub (account needs 1+ month of activity) → download the IDE → click Start Trial → $20 in credits lands instantly, no card, no form GPT-5.5 and Claude Sonnet 4.6 available immediately. Zed also connects to Gemini, Ollama locally, and any provider via Open CDP. One more thing: real-time multiplayer collaboration built in natively. Like Google Docs but inside your IDE. No extensions, no plugins. $20 free. Fastest AI IDE available right now. One GitHub login.
