CodeSee was founded in 2019 with the goal of helping programmers understand the entire code base inside a company. The idea was to provide visual maps, so you could see the connections between services and systems and how changes might affect the different links. Today, the company announced it was adding a generative AI capability to the platform, making it easy to ask questions about the code base in natural language.

Shanea Leven, co-founder and CEO at the company, says that generative AI is a perfect fit for what they’ve been trying to do at CodeSee. “So with the addition of AI, our hypotheses and our mission and our use cases don’t actually change, but our insight into how people grasp and understand code actually gets enhanced when you add AI onto it,” she told TechCrunch.
