Making Code Understanding Effortless
ExplainThis is on a mission to make understanding code as natural as reading text.
We believe that understanding code shouldn't be a barrier to building great software. Whether you're a seasoned developer diving into a new codebase or a student learning to code, ExplainThis is here to help you understand code faster and more thoroughly.
Our Story
ExplainThis was born from the frustration of spending countless hours trying to understand complex codebases. We realized that while there were tools to write, test, and deploy code, there weren't great tools to understand code quickly.
Our Technology
We use advanced AI models specifically trained on code understanding to provide clear, contextual explanations of any code snippet. Our technology goes beyond simple documentation - it understands code structure, patterns, and intent.
Our Values
- Accessibility: Making code understanding accessible to everyone
- Accuracy: Providing precise, reliable explanations
- Privacy: Keeping your code secure and confidential
- Innovation: Continuously improving our technology
Our Expertise
The ExplainThisCode team brings together expertise in artificial intelligence, programming language theory, and developer tooling. Our engineers have backgrounds in compiler design, static analysis, and natural language processing, enabling us to build explanations that are both technically accurate and easy to understand.
We continuously refine our models against real-world codebases spanning dozens of programming languages, ensuring our explanations reflect current best practices and idiomatic patterns.
