Transform your Git history into actionable insights.
Identify hotspots, knowledge silos, and risky dependencies.
Inspired by Adam Tornhill's "Your Code as a Crime Scene" methodology
Identify files that are both complex and frequently changed. These hotspots are statistically more likely to contain bugs and require immediate attention.
Discover files owned primarily by one developer. Reduce team risk by identifying knowledge bottlenecks.
Find hidden dependencies between files that consistently change together.
Assess the potential impact of changing specific files. Make informed decisions about refactoring and understand ripple effects.
Export results in CSV, JSON, or view directly in terminal.
Analyze thousands of commits in minutes. Efficient algorithms ensure you get insights quickly, even for large enterprise repositories.
Analyze any GitHub repository and see instant insights
Try with any GitHub repository URL
