Code understanding for humans and agents

Sourcebot is a self-hosted code intelligence platform that helps developers and AI agents search, navigate, and understand large codebases. It indexes repositories so teams can find code quickly, explore git history, and give coding agents context across all of a company's repos rather than only local ones.

Core capabilities include fast code search with regex, symbol, and repository/language filters, a file explorer and code viewer, git history and blame, and code navigation such as go-to-definition and find-references. Ask Sourcebot provides AI-assisted code understanding, and an agent code context layer integrates with tools like Cursor and Claude Code via MCP. Connectors link external systems such as Jira and Linear, and the platform supports a range of LLM providers including OpenAI, Anthropic, Bedrock, Vertex, Mistral, and self-hosted models. Supported code hosts include GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, Azure DevOps, Gerrit, and Gitea.

Sourcebot is built for engineering teams and organizations that need to maintain visibility across many repositories, and it deploys as a single Docker container on your own infrastructure. It offers a free Basic plan for self-hosted code search, a Pro plan with AI features, agent context, and security controls (SSO, audit logs, permission syncing) available monthly or annually with a 14-day trial, and a custom Enterprise edition with dedicated support, SLAs, custom MSA, and offline licensing.
