What is Onboarding Buddy?
Everyone hates having to understand other people's spaghetti code. It's annoying, hard to understand, and takes wayyyy too long. Instead, use Onboarding Buddy to help you analyze codebases in minutes with the help of AI.
Problem
Users currently spend weeks manually deciphering complex, poorly documented codebases during onboarding. Understanding spaghetti code is time-consuming and frustrating, leading to delayed project timelines and reduced productivity.
Solution
AI-powered code analysis tool that lets users analyze codebases in minutes with AI-generated explanations. Users upload code to receive summaries, architecture breakdowns, and dependency maps (e.g., identifying key functions in a legacy Python repo).
Customers
Developers, software engineers, and engineering teams onboarding onto new projects, particularly in fast-paced startups or enterprises dealing with legacy systems.
Unique Features
Context-aware AI that maps code relationships, identifies critical modules, and generates plain-English documentation without manual annotation.
