Unfolding
code

The comprehension layer for your codebase. For software teams and agents.

Understanding is the new bottleneck in software development.

Onboarding, code review, and documentation have always been how software teams share context. An accepted tax that keeps growing with the codebase.


Then AI agents started writing code faster than humans could read it. The ways teams stayed aligned can't keep up. Writing code is no longer the bottleneck.
Understanding is.

Core Capabilities

Built on a deep understanding.

Most tools point an agent at your source and hope. We compile your entire codebase into a precise, always-current semantic model serving a shared vocabulary your team, your agents, and your tools can all reason from.

Wiki

System-level documentation generated from source. Helping both humans and agents to quickly understand codebase concepts and share knowledge across sessions.

Process Graph

Visualize complex business logic and workflows in an easy to understand low code interface. Guaranteed to be logically correct as we compile it directly from the control flow of the code.

Press enter or space to select a node. You can then use the arrow keys to move the node around. Press delete to remove it and escape to cancel.
Press enter or space to select an edge. You can then press delete to remove it or escape to cancel.

System Map

System architecture diagrams compiled from source. Understand the big picture of your system at a glance, always up to date.

PR Review

Every PR is reviewed through semantic diffs - focused on understanding the meaning of the change. Approve or edit the PR digest to update the docs directly keeping humans in the loop.

How it works

A semantic model of your code.

A unified syntax tree compiled from every language in your stack. Callgraphs, control flow, and cross-service relationships derived from it. Semantic diffs apply incrementally as code changes.

Compile

Every language, one semantic representation.

We compile every line of code in every service into the same unified syntax tree. Algorithmic, deterministic, no LLM in the loop.

This is the foundation everything else is built on. We call it the Universal Syntax Compiler.

Why Abstraction?

Because you can't sign off on what you don't understand.

Knowledge that compounds

What your team learns about the codebase doesn't evaporate at the end of a session or when someone leaves. It accumulates into a shared, structured layer that every human and agent draws from.

Reason once, reuse forever

Agentic exploration rediscovers the same structure on every run and produces different answers each time. Abstraction does the structural reasoning once, deterministically, so your agents inherit the result instead.

One onboarding for everyone

A new hire and a new agent need the same things on day one: your domain vocabulary, your system boundaries, the reasoning behind your patterns. Both pick them up from the same shared layer.

Map your whole stack

From a single service to dozens of microservices across multiple languages, Abstraction builds one coherent understanding of how it all fits together.

Reviews beyond the diff

Every PR is reviewed against a structural map of your whole codebase, not just the changed lines. Catch the regression three modules away, the invariant that no longer holds, the assumption that's quietly stale.
