Sourcebot
What is Sourcebot?
Sourcebot is a self-hosted code search and understanding platform that indexes enterprise codebases so both human developers and AI agents can search, navigate, and understand code without sending source data off-premises.
Key Capabilities
- Code Search & Navigation: Provides search and cross-reference navigation across large, complex codebases.
- Agent Integration: Exposes repository context to AI coding tools so agents can query and retrieve code without reading entire files.
- On-Premises Deployment: Runs entirely within the organization's infrastructure, keeping source code in-house.
- Multi-Code-Host Indexing: Indexes repositories across major version control platforms.
Audience & Use Cases
- Audience: Security engineers, platform teams, and engineering organizations with strict data-residency or code-confidentiality requirements.
- Use Case: Internal code search and AI-assisted development where source code must not leave the corporate network.
Technical Specifications
- Deployment: Self-hosted; available in an open-source core plus Pro and Enterprise tiers with dedicated support, SLAs, and offline licensing.
- Backing: Y Combinator-backed; cited in customer materials across security and logistics organizations.
