What Sourcebot does
Sourcebot is a code understanding platform that helps both humans and AI agents make sense of massive codebases. It is open source and self-hosted, letting teams search and reason across millions of lines of code and thousands of repositories from one place.
Key capabilities
Sourcebot offers instant regex search across large codebases with boolean logic and repo, file, and branch filters, plus natural-language Q&A across many repos using flagship reasoning models, returning answers with inline citations. For developers it speeds onboarding onto complex codebases; for AI agents it supplies the code context needed to reduce hallucinations and stay consistent with the wider codebase. It deploys via a single Docker container with no code leaving the deployment.
Who it's for
Sourcebot is used by engineers at large organizations and offers a free community edition alongside a paid enterprise edition with advanced navigation, analytics, and security features. It is backed by Y Combinator.
