What is Unblocked?

Unblocked helps you find accurate answers about your application by augmenting your source code with context from GitHub, Slack, Confluence, Linear, and more.

When you have a specific question about your codebase, you can ask Unblocked directly, whether you’re working on the web, in Slack, or in your IDE. Unblocked will provide you with an answer that takes into account the specifics of your code, your internal discussions, and your documentation. Answers always include links to the references Unblocked consulted so you can explore them more deeply as needed.

Unblocked is also helpful when you don’t have a question. It will surface contextually relevant information — like past decisions, discussions, and relevant documents — for both files and specific lines of code right in your IDE, giving you context about why something was written the way it was.

Unblocked’s security model means that only your team has access to the model used for generating answers to your questions. Your code, documentation, and questions to Unblocked will never be used to train another organization’s Unblocked instance.

Getting Started

Getting started with Unblocked is straightforward. You will need to provide Unblocked with access to your source code, the systems that surround your code — like Slack, your issue tracker, and your documentation system — and then invite your team to use it. After Unblocked has ingested all of the material you need it to know about, you can begin using the platform.

Accessing Unblocked

Unblocked is designed to be used anywhere that you work — on the web, on your Mac, in your IDE, or in Slack. You and your team can use Unblocked to get the answers you need without wasting time searching for information or interrupting your teammates.
