About

Axivion helps development teams deliver safer, cleaner, and more maintainable C, C++, and CUDA code by automatically detecting coding standard violations, security vulnerabilities, dead code, and code clones. It provides actionable recommendations and detailed analytics, helping teams track, resolve, and prevent defects early in the development process. Axivion also supports architecture verification, enabling teams to maintain modular and scalable codebases. Designed for safety-critical industries like automotive, aerospace, medical devices, and industrial automation, Axivion supports functional safety standards including MISRA, ISO 26262, and IEC 61508. By combining static code analysis with architecture verification, it helps teams maintain long-term code health, accelerate certification readiness, and deliver high-performance software while reducing technical debt and ensuring compliance.

About

Understand is a comprehensive static-analysis and code-comprehension platform that helps software engineers “see” and understand large, complex code bases, whether legacy, safety-critical, or modern multi-language projects. It parses your source code and builds a complete “code dictionary” of every entity (files, classes, functions, variables), populating cross-references, call trees, dependency graphs, control-flow diagrams, and more. Through interactive, customizable graphs and visualizations, call graphs, control flow graphs, dependency trees, and UML-style class diagrams, you can explore exactly how parts of the code connect, which modules depend on which, and where changes may ripple across the project. Understand also computes detailed metrics at various levels (file, class, function) such as cyclomatic complexity, lines of code, comment-to-code ratio, coupling/cohesion, and other maintainability indicators; these metrics can be viewed in treemaps, exported to HTML or CSV.
