Sourcebot is an open-source code search tool (Github). It allows teams to index repositories across various different platforms, and provides a powerful interface to search across them.
We have a public demo if you'd like to try Sourcebot out before registering.
There are two ways to get started using Sourcebot: A fully managed version of Sourcebot that is hosted and maintained by the Sourcebot team: https://app.sourcebot.dev/
Best for teams who: - Have large indexing requirements (500+ repos) - Don't want to deal with the headache of managing their own Sourcebot deployment
Run Sourcebot within your own infrastructure. Check out our [self-hosting](/self-hosting/overview) guide to get started (it takes < 1 minute to spin up)Best for teams who: - Want to try out Sourcebot without going through security review (everything stays on your machine) - Want full control over their Sourcebot deployment
