Codetrails GmbH, a Darmstadt, Germany-based provider of Big Data software for Java developers, raised a seed funding round of undisclosed amount from High-Tech Gründerfonds.
The company is using the funds for the spin-off from the TU Darmstadt and to further increase its capabilities of automated knowledge transfer and bug detection.
Founded in 2013 based on research by Dr. Marcel Bruch, Codetrails provides Java developers with tools to reduce the time and effort needed to familiarize oneself with the code. By applying Big Data to software engineering, the platform automatically analyzes millions of lines of code and extracts common patterns that express how other developers before have solved a similar problem before a human developer.
More than 100,000 users currently benefit from knowledge extracted from publically-available source code. First customers include players from the automotive and tourism industries.
