BoardUp builds every new team member a role-specific onboarding guide — combining a deep scan of your codebase with the business context and documentation you already have. People in any role get productive faster, and you stop losing institutional knowledge every time someone rolls off.
Hiring is a leap of faith. You invest in finding the right person, then face a steep learning curve with no guarantee of how quickly they'll contribute. At scale, the problem compounds: teams lean on contractors who cycle on and off projects with little context for the broader mission.
The cost shows up later — in defects, in changes no one can fully trace, and in the hours spent just figuring out where a fix needs to land. When someone is asked to enhance or repair functionality they didn't build, they spend significant time reconstructing decisions made long before they arrived.
Most of that knowledge was never written down. It lives in the heads of people who've moved on.
BoardUp combines a deep scan of your codebase with the business context and documentation you already have — specs, wikis, runbooks, past decisions — into a single always-available guide. New members can ask anything, as often as they need.
It builds a tailored onboarding model for each role. Pick a role and ask a question → see how the same brain answers an engineer, a PM, an analyst, and a designer in their own terms.
BillingController path and the Pricing PRD in one answer.Unify your codebase with the docs and decisions you already have, so critical knowledge doesn't disappear when people roll off a project.
New hires in any role reach productivity in days, not months, with an onboarding guide tailored to what they actually need to know.
Help people understand the full impact of a change before they make it — cutting defects and avoidable incidents.
Point BoardUp at your repositories and the documentation you already have — specs, wikis, runbooks, tickets. It maps how your platform is built and the business it serves.
It combines the code scan with your business context to build a tailored onboarding model for each role — capturing the intent behind changes, the “why” that usually lives only in people's heads.
New members in any role get answers in plain language: where a change belongs, what it affects, how a process works, and why things are the way they are.
BoardUp isn't just for engineers. Product managers, analysts, designers, QA, sales, and marketing all face the same wall of missing context when they join a team. BoardUp builds each role its own onboarding model — combining your codebase with the business context behind it — and meets everyone in plain language, so anyone can get oriented and start contributing, no matter their role or how long they're staying.
When new people understand a platform from day one, they contribute sooner and break less. BoardUp turns onboarding from a months-long drain into a few focused weeks — and keeps your team's hard-won knowledge from leaving when people do.
BoardUp reads your codebase and docs to build the guide — and treats them like the crown jewels they are.
Your code and docs are yours. We never use them to train models for anyone else — full stop.
Encrypted in transit and at rest, audited annually, with least-privilege access controls throughout.
Run BoardUp inside your own cloud. Nothing has to cross your network perimeter.
Grant repo- and doc-level permissions, mirror your existing roles, and revoke access anytime.
Yes. BoardUp handles large private monorepos and multi-repo setups alike, mapping dependencies and ownership across the whole platform — not just a single service.
Most codebases are mapped within a few hours; very large monorepos may take longer for the first pass. After that, updates are incremental and near-real-time.
BoardUp watches your repos and docs and keeps the guide current — new commits, merged PRs, and updated specs flow into the model continuously, so answers never go stale.
Absolutely. Scope access per repository and per doc space, mirror your existing permission model, and exclude anything sensitive. People only get answers from sources they're already allowed to see.
In the VPC / self-hosted deployment, your source never leaves your environment. In the managed offering it's encrypted at rest, isolated per customer, and never used to train shared models.
We're onboarding teams in small waves. Tell us a little about yours and we'll reach out as spots open.
