Specfy

Hello Product Hunt! 🚀 If I gave you 5minutes would you be able to list what is in your company production right now and tell me how it's built? And in an hour? Enter Specfy: your open source Stack Intelligence Platform. It helps communication in your engineering org and makes decision-making clearer. I’m Samuel and I’m absolutely thrilled to finally launch the product I have been working on the last months. 👋🏻 Motivation At my previous job, I frequently struggled with a persistent and widespread issue: internal technical communication is hard. Time and again, team members were left scrambling, sifting through different sources in search of crucial information. Nobody had a clear understanding of how components were built on other team, leadership was often blindsided, uninformed of key technical choices and even the sheer number of products that were active in production. Newcomers? They faced an uphill battle, trying to make sense of our internal workings. Born out of this very frustration, Specfy aims to be the single source of truth, aligning teams towards greater technological coherence. Why use Specfy? Specfy is your next-generation platform designed for DevOps and technical leaders. As an open-source stack intelligence platform, it offers: 📈 Always Updated Infrastructure Graph: No more outdated diagrams. Specfy keeps your infrastructure graph perpetually current, ensuring you always have a clear overview. It’s refreshed automatically on each Github push. 📝 Real-time Documentation: With Specfy, your technical documentation is always in sync with your evolving tech stack. 🤝 Enhanced Internal Communication: Bridge the communication gap between teams, ensuring everyone is on the same page with only one way to talk about Production. 🚀 Efficient Engineer Onboarding: New team member? No problem. Get them up to speed swiftly with Specfy's clear and intuitive platform. 🔍 Empowered Technical Decisions: Make informed decisions at scale, leveraging accurate and up-to-date data from Specfy. You have access to all your tech stack currently in Production without having to dig in each repository or chaining meetings. Evolution & Next steps? What you see today is the core product, and this is just the beginning. You can check the next 3months Public Roadmap here (https://github.com/orgs/specfy/p...). I’m currently fine-tuning an AI model to improve infrastructure suggestions and alternative technology recommendations. And there is plenty to do to improve the automatic graphing and technology detection. Register now, it's Free during beta https://specfy.io Don't have a repository?

Having felt the pain to keep architecture documentation up to date (for presentations, onboarding, etc.), this seems super useful! Bonus points for helping kickstart onboarding before the new joinee gets access to Github — which can take a few days in large orgs.

Well done @samdotb ! Indeed listing resources when onboarding can be a struggle! I can feel that this product can be a really good candidate to help new comers in a company!

I remember how hard it was to get a big picture of all the internal projects in my previous positions. Going from PM to PM to be able to draw an approximate map of it with still a lot of blind spots. Been giving a go to Specfy and it really meets its promises, I just wish that service existed back in the days!

Really, really nice Sam—well crafted product that I wish we had earlier in some projects I worked on! Congrats on the launch! 🚀

Just used it and it went pretty smoothly ! The data are almost accurate considering I used it on a monorepo ! Congrats to the team, keep going !

Congrats on the launch, can't wait to try it and see how this turns out !
