DeepCode
AI-powered semantic code analysis
DeepCode is an AI-powered code review and security analysis platform that uses semantic analysis and data-flow graphs to find vulnerabilities, bugs, and code quality issues across 19+ programming languages. Now integrated as the AI engine powering Snyk Code, DeepCode delivers research-driven one-click fixes with industry-leading 80% accuracy on security autofixes.
Key Capabilities
DeepCode performs semantic code analysis that goes beyond syntax checking, building data-flow graphs to trace how data moves through your application and identify security vulnerabilities like SQL injection, cross-site scripting, and weak cryptography. The AI engine supports 19+ programming languages and multiple AI models for comprehensive coverage. One-click autofixes generate patches, refactors, and configuration changes that can be reviewed like standard pull request patches. Real-time scanning flags issues as you code, while integration with CI/CD pipelines ensures no vulnerabilities reach production.
Who Should Use DeepCode
DeepCode is suited for security-conscious development teams, DevSecOps engineers, and organizations that need to embed security scanning into their development workflow. Its integration within Snyk makes it particularly valuable for teams already using or considering the Snyk platform for comprehensive application security.
Getting Started
Access DeepCode through the Snyk platform by signing up at snyk.io for a free account. Connect your repository to begin automatic code scanning. DeepCode analyzes your codebase and presents findings with severity ratings and one-click fix suggestions. Review and apply fixes directly from your IDE or the Snyk dashboard.
Pricing & Accessibility: DeepCode is available through Snyk with a free tier for open-source and individual use. Paid plans start around $25/mo per developer through Snyk's Team plan. Enterprise pricing offers volume discounts and advanced features. Standalone DeepCode access may vary.
Why Consider DeepCode: DeepCode's semantic analysis engine delivers the highest accuracy autofixes in the industry at 80%, using data-flow graphs rather than pattern matching to find real vulnerabilities that surface-level tools miss.

Frequently Asked Questions about DeepCode
Is DeepCode the same as Snyk Code?
DeepCode AI is the underlying engine that powers Snyk Code. While DeepCode originally existed as a standalone product, it was acquired by Snyk and now serves as the AI backbone for Snyk's static application security testing (SAST) capabilities.
How does DeepCode differ from traditional SAST tools?
Unlike traditional SAST tools that rely on pattern matching, DeepCode builds semantic data-flow graphs of your code to trace how data moves through your application. This approach finds real vulnerabilities that surface-level scanning misses and delivers autofixes with 80% accuracy.
What languages does DeepCode support?
DeepCode supports 19+ programming languages, covering the most widely used languages in modern software development including JavaScript, Python, Java, Go, C/C++, Ruby, PHP, and many others.
