No LLM, No training data, No cloud – Engine that understands architecture

2 pointstwoelf2 comments

Point it at a codebase. Any language. Any size.

In under a second it tells you the architecture. Not a dependency graph. Not a file tree. The actual architecture — what orchestrates what, where state lives, where the boundaries are, what breaks if you touch something.

I've run it against 45,000+ functions across 6 real-world codebases in 4 languages. It works. On a laptop. No cloud. No GPU. No setup.

Everyone's spending billions throwing LLMs at code and getting confident hallucinations. I went a completely different direction and got something that's fast, deterministic, and can explain every decision it makes.

Building this full-time. Looking for design partners and investors.

The God Object pattern in `app` is a documented community concern. The circular deps between app↔router↔request↔response are well-known. 551ms. No LLM. No cloud. Deterministic — same input, same output, every time. Happy to run it against any public repo if you want to suggest one.
