Kinlyze
Know what breaks when a developer leaves - on autopilot
Every team has one engineer who's the only person who understands the payment flow. Nobody measures that risk until they resign. Kinlyze scans git history - never your code, fully offline - and shows knowledge heatmaps, module-level bus factor, and an offboarding simulator: pick a developer, see what breaks. New: the Kinlyze Agent runs scans every weekday and syncs to your dashboard automatically. Pro free for your first month, no card required.
Hey Product Hunt!
Two months ago I launched Kinlyze here as a waitlist. Today, the thing people kept asking for is live.
The problem: every team has that one engineer who's the only person who understands the payment flow, or auth, or that cursed legacy module. Nobody measures that risk until the resignation letter arrives.
What Kinlyze does: it analyzes git history - commits, authorship, recency, change size - and shows you knowledge heatmaps, bus factor per module, departure impact per developer, and an offboarding simulator (pick a dev, see what breaks and the recommended handover order). It's 100% local: git metadata only, never your source code, no GitHub OAuth, works air-gapped.
What's new since the waitlist launch:
1. Kinlyze Agent - one command (kinlyze agent install --token) and it scans your repos every weekday morning, syncing to your dashboard. Machine was asleep at 9am? It catches up on wake.
2. Cloud reports, multi-repo projects, and combined cross-repo risk views
3. Read-only share links - send your CTO a report without them installing anything
Launch offer: Pro is live and your first month is completely free - no card required. I want early adopters using the Agent and telling me what's missing before I even think about billing. Team tier is still on waitlist while I onboard the first teams personally.
The CLI and dashboard are free forever - you can scan a repo with zero account in under 5 minutes, or just poke around the live FastAPI demo on the dashboard.

What's the scariest bus-factor story from your team?
Finally something that answers the question i actually dread asking leadership. The offline-only thing is a big deal, our security team would have blocked anything else. Ran it on a couple repos and the bus factor output was honestly more useful than i expected.
One thing that would help me a lot as an eng manager: let me toggle which repos or teams Kinlyze watches. Right now it seems to scan everything, and I only really care about the services that have on-call rotation or where bus factor is a worry. Filtering by team or criticality tier would make the daily scan way more actionable instead of noisy.
