Description

Specfy is an open-source platform designed to help engineering organizations automatically catalog their entire technology stack, including infrastructure, SaaS, third-party services, and major technologies within code repositories. It ensures the software catalog and metadata stay current with every commit, enabling teams to manage, discover, and understand their production environments and dependencies from a single interface.

This platform empowers collaborative stack management, assists onboarding, and highlights duplicates or discrepancies across environments. Specfy operates transparently, keeping only metadata and allowing teams to self-host or contribute via GitHub.

Key Features

  • Automated Cataloging: Continuously scans code repositories to detect and catalog all infrastructure, SaaS, and technologies.
  • Up-to-Date Insights: Refreshes data on every commit for always current stack information.
  • Production Environment Discovery: Maps and visualizes interconnections and dependencies across all production environments.
  • Duplicate Resource Detection: Identifies and highlights duplicated stack resources.
  • SaaS and Third-Party Inventory: Maintains an exhaustive list of all services and third-party tools used.
  • Centralized Collaboration: Enables querying, updating, onboarding, and prototyping on a single platform.
  • Open-Source and Self-Hostable: Source code available for transparency and self-hosting via GitHub.

  • Automated cataloging of engineering infrastructure and software stack
  • Tracking and understanding production environment dependencies
  • Onboarding new engineering team members efficiently
  • Auditing and consolidating SaaS and third-party service usage
  • Centralizing technical knowledge for high-impact decision making
  • Detecting duplicated or unused resources in the tech stack
