Codacy is the code quality and security platform for AI-assisted engineering teams. AI is now embedded through the engineering workflow, which has made teams faster, but also adds risk to everything they ship. Codacy helps AI-assisted teams ship high-quality, secure code across the full software development lifecycle, starting in the agent and editor, through pull requests in Git, and into containers and runtime security. At each stage we check for quality issues, security vulnerabilities and AI coding risk introduced into the codebase, and help devs and agent fix them effortlessly.
