What is Ziva?
Ziva is an AI-powered plugin the Godot Engine that integrates directly into the editor as a side panel. It connects to leading LLMs - including Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, and Kimi K2.5 - and uses 50+ specialized MCP tools to generate GDScript code, build scenes, create tilemaps, edit nodes, and debug errors, all through natural language. It works on Windows, macOS, and Linux (including Flatpak).
Think of it as Cursor, but for Godot. No copy-pasting between a browser and your editor - Ziva reads your full project structure and makes changes directly inside Godot.

How Useful Is It?
In user testing with 26 developers, the median time to build a simple game dropped from 88 minutes to 37 minutes - over 2x faster with Ziva. Over 2 billion LLM tokens have been processed for Ziva users so far.

How Is Ziva Different?
- vs. ChatGPT / Claude in a browser: Ziva understands your full Godot project - scenes, scripts, nodes, file structure - and edits everything directly in the editor. No copy-paste workflow. vs. Cursor / Windsurf: Those tools don't support Godot's scene system, node trees, tilemaps, or .tscn files. Ziva has 50+ MCP tools built specifically for Godot operations.
- vs. AI Assistant Hub: Ziva works out of the box - no API keys, no self-hosted models, no configuration. Just install and go.
- vs. Nitrode: Ziva is a plugin for the standard Godot editor, not a separate forked engine. Your existing Godot projects work as-is with zero migration.
Pricing
- Free to start - includes access to lightweight models at no cost.
- Upgrade for $20–$200/mo for access to the most powerful models.
