Show HN: Aude – I built this because I hate bothering other engineers in my team

Hi HN! I’m Dan, and I just built this tool called Aude an AI-powered assistant built specifically to help engineers quickly navigate and understand large, complex codebases (all within Jira). It's now live on the Atlassian Marketplace and free for you to try.

-------------

Why I built this:

The reason I built this was because everywhere I worked, SWE spent significant time navigating and understanding complex codebases and it always slowed down feature deployment. What normally happened was:

1. Assigned a ticket.

2. Reach out to an SME (sometimes took days).

3. Write code and reach back out to SME to review PR (Lots of back and forth).

4. Push code.

-------------

How it works:

1. Connects directly to your GitHub/GitLab/Bitbucket via Jira as an app extension. We’re looking at expanding to Linear and DevOps but started with Jira as that seemed the most popular and had the most problems for legacy orgs.

2. Finds relevant code files based on your current ticket (Title, Description, Comments…etc).

3. Provides insights (Relevant Files, suggested implementation, testing scenarios) and recommendations based on your codebase (Monorepo or microservices, works for all).

-------------

How it's different:

Unlike general purpose tools (Co-pilot, Chatgpt…etc), we built Aude with enterprise security in mind. We’re not looking to generate code for the developer, rather, augment the experience by reducing time in the discovery phase.

- Isolated cloud

- On-prem deployment

Try it out (no signup required): We’re live on the Atlassian Marketplace and free to install and try immediately: https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1237445?tab=overview&...

The ask:

I'm keen to hear your experiences as devleopers, suggestions on the product, or any questions you have.

Cheers, Daniel Daniel@aude.app | Aude.app
