DevLift AI-Developer Onboarding Accelerator

DevLift is an AI-powered developer onboarding accelerator that eliminates the painful days a new engineer spends trying to understand an unfamiliar codebase. By simply pasting a public GitHub repository URL, developers receive a fully structured Onboarding Kit generated by IBM watsonx.ai in under 90 seconds. The kit covers everything a new contributor needs: an Architecture Overview explaining how the system's layers interact, a Key Components map highlighting the 7 most critical files to read first, Complexity Hotspots flagging the riskiest areas of the codebase with actionable tips, Suggested First Tasks ranked by difficulty to give new developers a clear starting point, Common Patterns documenting the conventions and idioms used throughout the project, and a Setup Guide with exact commands to get the project running locally. DevLift also includes a Contribution Readiness Score , a 0 to 100 grade that measures how contributor-friendly a repository is across five dimensions: documentation quality, test coverage, CI/CD automation, code complexity, and community health. Beyond analysis, DevLift features a Discover Repos mode where developers can describe what they want to build and receive curated open-source repository recommendations matched to their stack and requirements — each with its own Onboarding Kit ready to explore. Built on IBM watsonx.ai using Meta's Llama model, DevLift transforms the onboarding experience from days of confusion into minutes of clarity — making every developer productive from day one.
