In today’s fast-moving software landscape, technical debt isn’t just a code quality issue—it’s a financial and strategic risk. Whether you’re navigating M&A due diligence, ensuring ISO/IEC 18974 compliance, or cutting development costs, your approach to source code auditing can make or break success.

As Code We Trust celebrates five years of innovation, we’re excited to introduce C2M Version 8.0—our most advanced AI-driven source code audit platform yet!

This release redefines source code inspection, integrating AI & LLMs holistically to transform how organizations quantify technical debt, manage compliance, and optimize software investments.

What makes CodeWeTrust different? Unlike traditional tools that use AI for customer support or basic recommendations, C2M embeds AI directly into the audit process—providing real-time risk assessments, precise cost analysis, and actionable insights instead of just explanations.

The future of source code auditing is here. Let AI work for your codebase.

Comparative Feature Analysis: CodeWeTrust vs. Other Tools

How does CodeWeTrust compare to the competition?

Key Insights from the Comparison

CodiumAI assists with test generation & code understanding but doesn’t provide AI-powered audits.

  • Mend.io offers robust open-source security & license compliance, but lacks AI-driven auditing or technical debt estimation.
  • Snyk focuses on open-source security and license compliance, with limited AI integration.
  • DeepSource provides code reviews and static analysis but lacks AI-driven audits.
  • AWS CodeGuru is AWS-specific, offering performance recommendations but not full-scale AI auditing.
  • CodiumAI assists with test generation & code understanding but doesn’t provide AI-powered audits.

AI as the Core, Not Just an Add-On

Most tools incorporate AI for security scanning or license compliance, but CodeWeTrust is built from the ground up as an AI-first audit solution.

Instead of just telling you what’s wrong, CodeWeTrust tells you what to fix first, how much it will cost, and how to optimize your codebase for long-term growth.

With C2M Co-Pilot launching in 2025, CodeWeTrust is poised to redefine AI-driven source code auditing—helping companies conduct risk-free M&A due diligence, reduce technical debt, and improve security compliance.

An AI-based Approach to Cost Reduction in SDLC

This article presents an AI-driven approach to reducing software development life cycle (SDLC) costs by identifying and addressing defects earlier in the process. It introduces the Maintainability Ratio (M-ratio) as a metric for measuring the balance between development costs and code quality. By shifting vulnerability detection to earlier stages ('shift-left'), organizations can save up to 40% in maintenance costs. The method combines AI-based rules, open-source benchmarks, and maintainability metrics to identify high-cost, low-quality components and prioritize fixes. Real-world case studies from open-source frameworks illustrate how early detection avoids cost escalation. The article also stresses aligning technical debt reduction with business priorities to maintain competitiveness.

Open-Source AI Under the Microscope: What McKinsey Didn’t Scan

This article responds to McKinsey’s optimistic take on open-source AI ecosystems by revealing the hidden risks found through C2M audits. Scanning over ten popular GenAI frameworks—including LLaMA, LangChain, Mistral, and DeepSeek—the platform identified high duplication rates, security vulnerabilities, outdated dependencies, and license conflicts. It warns that while open-source accelerates development and attracts investors, it can increase long-term maintenance costs and complicate due diligence. Many frameworks lack production readiness, with low test coverage and research-oriented code unsuitable for enterprise pipelines. Detailed audit results are summarized in a risk table, showing varied levels of exposure across frameworks. The piece advocates for enterprise-grade auditing to make OSS adoption sustainable and compliant, particularly for regulated or acquisition-driven environments.

The evolution from Code Scans to Code Sense: How AI Is Reshaping Source Code Due Diligence

This piece contrasts traditional static code analysis—which floods teams with raw metrics—with AI-powered reasoning that delivers business-aligned insights. It presents CodeWeTrust’s C2M platform as a bridge between technical findings and executive decision-making. C2M merges static analysis with large language model interpretation, applying reasoning only to hotspots identified as high-risk. The article explains how C2M contextualizes issues like license restrictions, dependency age, and commit volatility, distinguishing between theoretical and exploitable vulnerabilities. By reducing alert fatigue by up to 80%, C2M enables faster and more strategic decision-making in M&A, compliance, and vendor evaluations. The focus is on transforming code audits from developer-centric reports into clear, prioritized risk profiles that business leaders can act on.
