Hey HN, we’re Will and Liam, founders of CodeViz (YC S24). We’re building a VS Code extension that reads your code and generates editable architecture diagrams (C4, UML). It’s most…

For me it’s usually some context-specific, low-level DAG of functions/data flow. Maybe a higher level of C4 model depending on the scope of my work. I’ve been studying this to buil…

There seems to be a bug or comment depth limit, I can't reply to your comment below. I just published an update to extension description explaining that code moves through our serv…

Agreed this is a poor experience, we're making pricing very transparent now. Hope you give CodeViz another chance. Were you able to generate the top level architecture or interact …

Thanks for the report, following up now. We'll make some updates to our website asap. Preview of the call graph can be seen in our video demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fgfDX…

To generate second layer of architecture diagram, $19/mo subscription with a 7 day free trial. The call graph and top layer of the architecture diagram are free. We'll update our w…

> The only way I found out was installing it, create a call graph, and the first click took me to a payment page Yes, we need to be much more clear. It's not intentionally hard to …

Thanks for providing context on the LLM approval process! User provided API keys will be completed by the end of the week: https://github.com/EdisonLabs-Inc/CodeViz-Public/issues/3…

Should we let users choose which folders they want analyzed and leave all selected by default?

On it! Tracked here: https://github.com/EdisonLabs-Inc/CodeViz-Public/issues/2

Appreciate the honest feedback! We're working hard to improve CodeViz, please let me know if there are any features you'd love to see. I cloned pulumi and exported both layers of t…

Glad you like it! Let us know if you have any suggestions

We'd love to have CodeViz run with local LLMs so you can untangle the spaghetti. The call graph is generated without LLMs or servers - any interest in a 'local only' mode so you ca…

Sure thing - we'll plainly state this in the extension's description, the extension itself, and our website

I get where you're coming from - Copilot is very cheap and useful! We want the free version of CodeViz to be as useful as possible for you. Some features, like the second architect…

Got it, how about a manual trigger for diagram creation and an explicit description of LLM/server usage on the page with the trigger?

Some text on our website's homepage ( https://codeviz.ai )

Yes, we'd like to introduce more standard rules and visual notations as provided by UML. Did you get a chance to try the call graph? It contains functions and classes in one view. …

Just added an option to choose between Google and Apple calendar

The name association is a genuine concern of ours :)

That's correct, our server just routes calls directly to Anthropic. Some users requested an option to input their own API key and talk to Anthropic directly. I'll add this by the e…

Thanks! Inspired by my bad memory and half of our website visitors being on mobile

Yes, some code is sent to Anthropic. We're hoping to: find initial users that are comfortable with software copilots (github copilot, cursor, etc) -> iterate on their feedback to m…

We'd love to use local models and have played around with them a bit. Exactly right about the labeling - we didn't stick with local models because 3.5 sonnet is exceptionally good …

Hey HN — we’re Liam and Will from CodeViz ( https://codeviz.ai ). We're building a VS Code extension that generates interactive diagrams of codebases, from system architecture down…
