Codacy
Code quality and security platform with AI guardrails for pull requests and AI-generated code.
What is Codacy?
Codacy is a code quality and security platform designed to enforce coding standards and security policies across the software development lifecycle, including code produced by AI coding agents. It scans for vulnerabilities (SAST, secrets, dependencies), code quality violations, and policy breaches, embedding checks directly into IDEs like VS Code, JetBrains, and Cursor. Its pull request reviewer provides AI-powered, actionable feedback with auto-fix suggestions, and it generates audit-ready compliance reports for standards like SOC2 and ISO27001. Codacy integrates with GitHub, GitLab, and Bitbucket, and reports being used by more than 15,000 organizations to unify coding standards across projects.
