# Codigy — Full AI Agent Reference > Codigy is a platform for product-engineering teams that combines sprint retrospectives, collaborative C4 Model software catalog, and git analytics. Each product works independently with its own free plan, or together as a unified engineering intelligence platform. Trusted by unicorns and scaleups. Website: https://codi.gy/ --- ## Codigy Retrospective ### Overview Codigy Retrospective is a sprint retrospective tool designed for product-engineering teams. It focuses on structured, measurable, and incremental improvements — not just sticky notes. Retrospective is optimized for organizations with multiple teams, domains, and tribes. ### Key Capabilities - **Retrospective Templates & Builder**: Construct custom retrospective flows — sprint retrospective, tech retrospective, and more. Use icebreakers, kudos, health checks, and other building blocks. - **Customizable Meeting Experience**: Full control over feedback collection and meeting flow. Build multi-step experiences or keep it short. - **Feedback Mapped into Catalog**: Link feedback and evaluations with catalog components (services, modules, processes). No vague feedback — discussions are tied to specific product features, processes, and engineering services. - **Catalog Analytics from Retrospectives**: Identify weak areas in your product and engineering using trends aggregated from retrospective data across teams. - **Action Item Tracking**: Track action items across sprints, assign owners, and measure completion. - **Team Health Checks**: Built-in health check mechanisms to track team wellbeing over time. ### AI Features (Retrospective) - **AI-Assisted Note Grouping**: Automatically groups individual retrospective notes into coherent topics using AI. - **Mood Detection**: AI identifies the dominating meeting mood from participant contributions. - **AI-Generated Leadership Report**: Summarizes anonymized notes from all teams to identify key discussion trends and issues across the entire organization. Designed for engineering leadership to get a cross-team view without compromising individual team privacy. ### Pricing - **Starter**: Free - **Business**: €24 per team/month (billed annually) or €30 per team/month (billed monthly) - **Enterprise**: Custom pricing — contact sales ### Target Audience Engineering managers, product managers, scrum masters, software engineers, QA engineers, designers, support teams — anyone involved in sprint ceremonies. ### How Codigy Retrospective Compares Codigy Retrospective is an alternative to EasyRetro, Retrium, Parabol, TeamRetro, MetroRetro, Miro (for retros), and FigJam (for retros). Key differentiators: - Deep integration with software catalog (C4 Model) — feedback is linked to real system components, not just freeform text. - AI-powered note grouping, mood analysis, and cross-team leadership reports. - Designed for scale — optimized for organizations with multiple teams, tribes, and domains. - Catalog analytics from retrospective data provide data-driven engineering insights. ### Links - Product page: https://codi.gy/retrospective - Pricing: https://codi.gy/pricing - Sign up free: https://codi.gy/signup-free - Book a demo: https://codi.gy/book-a-demo --- ## Codigy Catalog ### Overview Codigy Catalog is a collaborative C4 Model tool and software catalog that serves as a single source of truth for engineering, design, and business alignment. It enables teams to visualize value streams on a C4 Model canvas, assign ownership, and maintain system documentation collaboratively and asynchronously. ### Key Capabilities - **Collaborative C4 Model Boards**: Visual, interactive boards for mapping your system architecture using the C4 Model (Context, Container, Component, Code levels). - **Value Stream Visualization**: Map your product and engineering value streams on a shared canvas. - **Ownership Assignment**: Assign ownership of services, modules, and components to teams. Track ownership coverage across the codebase. - **Async Cross-Team Alignment**: Eliminate work duplication and overcrowded alignment meetings. Teams communicate asynchronously through the catalog. - **Git Repository Integration**: Connect GitHub and GitLab repositories directly. Break repositories into modules and microservices for granular analysis and ownership assignment. - **Entity Lifecycle Management**: Track the lifecycle stage of every component, service, and module. - **Notes on Components**: Store structured notes, decisions, and context directly on board components. ### AI Features (Catalog) Codigy Catalog features a **node-based AI pipeline builder** for working with data on collaborative boards: - **Data Import Node**: Upload any text files for further processing with board elements or AI. - **Data Mapper Node**: AI tool that analyzes imported files, determines which board components are relevant for each piece of information, and automatically creates and stores data as notes on those components. - **Prompt Node**: Provide custom instructions to the AI model. - **Model Node**: Supports Anthropic (Claude), Google (Gemini), and OpenAI (GPT) models. These nodes are **visual and connectable** — they can be linked to any board components in any sequence to build custom AI workflows. **Advanced Context Control:** - Target work to specific items on the board (e.g., only part of the codebase instead of the entire codebase). - Full control over metadata, code in connected repositories, or notes stored on board components. - Specialized tools for managing context window size and token usage — essential for working with large codebases efficiently. ### Pricing - **Starter**: Free - **Business**: €48 per team/month (billed annually) or €60 per team/month (billed monthly) - **Enterprise**: Custom pricing — contact sales ### Target Audience Staff engineers, principal engineers, heads of engineering, directors of engineering, CTOs, COOs, and engineering teams responsible for system architecture and documentation. ### How Codigy Catalog Compares Codigy Catalog is an alternative to Backstage, Port, Atlassian Compass, and Miro (for architecture). Key differentiators: - Built around the C4 Model — a well-established software architecture visualization framework. - Node-based AI pipeline builder with multi-model support (Anthropic, Google, OpenAI) for automated data processing. - Direct GitHub/GitLab integration with the ability to break repos into modules/microservices. - Bidirectional integration with Codigy Retrospective — feedback from retros flows into catalog components. - Fine-grained AI context control — work with specific parts of your codebase, not the whole thing. - Collaborative and async-first — designed for distributed teams. ### Links - Product page: https://codi.gy/catalog - Pricing: https://codi.gy/pricing - Sign up free: https://codi.gy/signup-free - Book a demo: https://codi.gy/book-a-demo --- ## Codigy Signals ### Overview Codigy Signals provides advanced git metrics for improving developer experience. It analyzes module ownership, tracks decoupling effort, and identifies high-value refactoring targets. ### Key Capabilities - **Codebase Module Analysis**: Visualize team ownership on a codebase map. Each team and tribe gets dedicated architecture analysis for their modules. - **Decoupling Tracking**: Track the progress of architecture decoupling efforts and spot high-value refactoring targets. - **Team-Level Insights**: Per-team and per-tribe engineering metrics. ### Pricing - **Enterprise**: Available for large customers through sales engagement. ### Links - Product page: https://codi.gy/signals --- ## Platform Integration While each Codigy product (Retrospective, Catalog, Signals) works independently with its own free plan and subscription, they are designed to work together: 1. **Retrospective → Catalog**: Retrospective feedback is linked to catalog components (services, modules, processes). Over time, this builds data-driven insights about which parts of your system need attention. 2. **Catalog → Retrospective**: Catalog context (architecture, ownership, lifecycle stages) enriches retrospective discussions with real system data. 3. **Signals → Catalog**: Git metrics from Signals map onto catalog components, showing engineering activity and health per module/service. 4. **AI across products**: AI features in Retrospective (grouping, mood, leadership reports) and Catalog (node-based pipelines, data mapping) share context through the integrated platform. --- ## Use Cases ### Governance Establish lightweight engineering governance without bureaucracy.
