DeepCode AI

DeepCode AI refers to two different AI tools: a security analysis engine that is now part of Snyk Code, and a separate, free, open-source agentic coding tool that converts research papers into functional code. The Snyk tool is a static application security testing (SAST) engine that uses machine learning and symbolic AI to find and fix security vulnerabilities in code. The other tool is an independent project that acts as a free AI coder, allowing users to build applications by uploading documents or using text prompts. 

DeepCode AI as part of Snyk Code

• Purpose: To enhance code security and quality by identifying vulnerabilities, bugs, and technical debt.
• Functionality: It analyzes source code to create a data flow graph and flags security issues. It also provides one-click fixes for many identified vulnerabilities, which can be automatically applied via pull requests.
• Technology: It uses a combination of symbolic and generative AI techniques, along with a large knowledge base of security data, to achieve high accuracy. 

DeepCode AI as an independent open-source project

• Purpose: To make software development more accessible by converting complex documents or simple text descriptions into working code. 
• Functionality: Allows users to build applications, including web apps and full-stack projects, by uploading a document or providing text instructions. 
• Technology: It leverages large language models and code generation to produce production-ready code. 
• Accessibility: It is a free, open-source tool with both a command-line interface and a web interface, making it accessible to users with or without coding experience.
