Paste any public GitHub URL. In a few seconds you'll see how many lines of code it has, which languages, where the complex files live, and a COCOMO-based estimate of how much it would cost — and how long it would take — to build the same thing from scratch.

What it does

Lines of code

Every file in the default branch counted, summed by language and ranked by code volume. See where the bulk actually lives.

Cost to develop

COCOMO (Boehm 1981, organic mode) translates SLOC into person-months, calendar months, and dollars. Industry-standard formula — not a guess.

Complexity ranking

Top files by branch + loop count, so the gnarly parts of the codebase surface immediately.

Cached & shareable

Results are keyed by commit SHA. Re-hitting the same commit is instant. Every analyzed repo gets a stable URL like /r/owner/repo.
