Getting Started
What is CodeDashboard?
CodeDashboard is an AI-powered tool that takes any GitHub repository URL and generates an interactive visual dashboard explaining what was built. It covers architecture, tech stack, data flow, API endpoints, and more — all without you reading a single line of code.
How does the analysis work?
Paste a GitHub URL and our AI reads the entire codebase in memory. It identifies architecture patterns, detects technologies with versions, maps data flows, and generates 11 interactive sections. The whole process takes under 2 minutes for most repos.
What programming languages are supported?
CodeDashboard works with any language or framework hosted on GitHub. The AI analyzes code structure and patterns, not syntax — so it handles JavaScript, Python, Go, Rust, Java, C#, Ruby, PHP, and everything in between.
How long does an analysis take?
Most repositories are analyzed in under 2 minutes. Larger codebases with thousands of files may take slightly longer, but you’ll see real-time progress updates while it runs.
Privacy & Security
Do you store my source code?
Never. Your code is analyzed in-memory and immediately discarded. We only save plain-language explanations and diagram data — zero source code is ever persisted. This is enforced by 4 layers: prompt engineering, output sanitization, schema validation, and in-memory-only processing.
How are GitHub tokens handled?
When you connect your GitHub account for private repo access, your OAuth token is encrypted with AES-256-GCM before storage. The token is only decrypted temporarily during analysis to fetch repository contents, then the decrypted value is discarded from memory.
Is my data encrypted?
Yes. All data is transmitted over HTTPS. GitHub tokens are encrypted with AES-256-GCM at rest. Dashboard data is stored in Supabase with row-level security (RLS) so only you can access your private dashboards.
Can I delete my data?
Yes. You can delete individual dashboards from your dashboard settings page, or delete your entire account. When a dashboard is deleted, all associated sections, analysis jobs, and metadata are permanently removed.
Pricing & Billing
How does the free trial work?
Every new account gets a 7-day free trial on any plan — Starter, Pro, or Business. You get full access to all features of your chosen plan during the trial. After 7 days, your card is charged automatically. You can cancel anytime during the trial and won’t be charged.
Can I upgrade or downgrade anytime?
Yes. Upgrades take effect immediately — you’ll get access to more analyses and features right away. Downgrades apply at the end of your current billing period. Switch plans from your billing settings at any time.
Can I cancel my subscription anytime?
Yes, cancel anytime from your billing settings. You’ll keep access until the end of your current billing period. No contracts, no cancellation fees.
What counts as an analysis?
1 analysis = generating a dashboard from a GitHub repository. Re-running (refreshing) an existing dashboard also counts as 1 analysis. Your analysis count resets on your billing date each month — unused analyses don’t roll over.
What payment methods do you accept?
We accept all major credit and debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express) through Stripe. Yearly plans are available at a ~17% discount. All payments are processed securely by Stripe — we never see your card details.
Features
Can I analyze private repositories?
Yes — on Starter, Pro, and Business plans (including during your free trial). Connect your GitHub account via OAuth and CodeDashboard can access your private repos. Your GitHub token is encrypted with AES-256-GCM.
How accurate is the analysis?
The analysis is powered by Claude AI and validated with structured Zod schemas. It identifies architecture patterns, tech stacks, and data flows with high accuracy. You can regenerate any dashboard to get an updated analysis.
Can I share dashboards with people who don’t have an account?
Absolutely. Every dashboard has a public shareable link. Viewers don’t need to log in or create an account. On Pro and Business plans, you can also password-protect dashboards for sensitive projects.
Can I export dashboards to PDF?
Yes. PDF export is available on Pro and Business plans. Generate a professional PDF document with all sections, diagrams, and analysis data — perfect for client deliverables, proposals, and documentation.
Your code stays private
We never store your source code. Code is analyzed in-memory and immediately discarded. Only plain-language explanations and diagram data are saved.
