Asimov is a code research agent that understands and works with complex enterprise codebases. Rather than focusing on code generation, Asimov prioritizes codebase comprehension—a task that consumes up to 70% of developers’ time.

Asimov:

  • Maps relationships between code, architecture, and team decisions
  • Maintains institutional knowledge as engineers join and leave
  • Learns organically from team interactions and documentation

The system is designed for teams working with large, interconnected codebases where understanding system context is critical for making changes safely and effectively.

How Asimov works

Asimov indexes your entire development environment—codebases, architecture documentation, GitHub threads, Teams conversations—to build a persistent, cross-cutting understanding of your systems. Critically, Asimov maintains context across architectural changes and team transitions.

Asimov uses expanded context windows instead of traditional RAG retrieval, allowing it to dynamically reference any part of your codebase during reasoning—not just pre-selected snippets. This enables flexible attention as reasoning unfolds, supporting more accurate synthesis across disparate parts of your system.

​
Built for enterprise teams

Asimov is built for organizations requiring enterprise security and privacy. Because of this, Asimov deploys directly within your own Virtual Private Cloud (VPC). This self-hosted model ensures that all of your proprietary source code and data remain completely contained within your own cloud infrastructure, managed by your team’s IAM roles.
