Einstein for Admins and Developers FAQ

Built natively for Salesforce languages, Einstein for Developers, unleashes developer productivity and empowers developers to build on Salesforce faster.  

Einstein for Developers enables users to build custom Salesforce apps at lightning speed with AI-driven predictive coding. Weave in industry best practices with intelligent AI-suggestion and ship best-in-class Salesforce code that is optimized, standardized, and performant. Catch security threats and bugs earlier with AI-powered code scans. And level up Salesforce development knowledge and expertise instantly with AI-paired programmer.

Businesses can benefit from implementing AI tools for developers to help expedite the development process. In the case of Einstein for Developers, it helps developers write code, using Salesforce languages and frameworks such as Apex and Lightning Web Components (LWC) that are are designed for developing SaaS applications on top of its customer relationship management (CRM) functionality.

Generative AI tools available currently in the marketplace are not trained on Salesforce data, development languages and frameworks since CRM data is proprietary. Hence, the outputs from those tools are generally inaccurate. In addition, when using Einstein for Developers, customer’s data never leaves their organization. Lastly, Einstein for Developers is built directly into Salesforce IDE, which is where developers work—unlike 3rd party tools that exist externally to the company’s org.

It's important to select a trusted partner for AI. Trust is #1 priority for Salesforce and that cascades to this product as well. Einstein trust layer ensures your company code and data does not leak to the public. Also, by using CodeGen, our in-house LLM, we ensure:

Performance and accuracy: Our in-house model is tailored specifically for Salesforce specific use cases while other non-Salesforce models are not.

Data security & trust: Trained on open-source, consented and representative data that a customer would have rather than generic data that exists in the internet Customer’s data and code never leave the Salesforce trust boundary. CodeGen’s output is assessed for toxicity, bias and harm.

Availability & scalability: CodeGen contains less latency issues and energy used than other open-source models.
