Map the code and the docs.Use it at work.
Graphify maps your code, docs, PDFs and Office files into one graph your agents query, under Apache 2.0, so a company can use it for free. GitNexus is a deep code index under a noncommercial licence; commercial use needs a licence from Akon Labs.
Checked against GitNexus's README, licence and docs on 27 October 2026.
Four reasons teams pick Graphify.
- 01
Free to use at work
The graphify engine is Apache 2.0. A company can run it, change it and ship it in a product without buying a licence.
How GitNexus compares. GitNexus is under the PolyForm Noncommercial License 1.0.0. Its free tier is "for individual developers", and its README says commercial licensing is available through Akon Labs.
- 02
Your docs sit in the same graph as your code
Design docs, PDFs, Office files, SQL schemas, images, and audio and video transcribed on your machine become nodes beside the code they describe. An agent can follow a requirement to the code that implements it.
How GitNexus compares. It links Markdown sections to the code. PDFs, Office files and media are not in its README.
- 03
Pull requests that collide, caught before merge
graphify prs --conflictslists the parts of the graph that more than one open pull request touches, with the merge-order risk.graphify prs 42shows what one pull request reaches.How GitNexus compares. Its detect_changes maps one diff to the processes it affects. Conflicts between open pull requests are not in its README, and its pull request review bot is on Enterprise.
- 04
A free hosted plan with review and a solver
Graphify Cloud is $0 with no card: 15 pull request reviews a month and a solver that checks supported changed functions once a day. Teams is $20 a seat a month billed yearly for the first 100 teams.
How GitNexus compares. Its managed Enterprise SaaS is $29 a seat, with pull request review and multi-repo graphs. Formal verification is not in its README.
Graphify and GitNexus, row by row.
The open-source graphify CLI against the open-source GitNexus first. The last group is Graphify Cloud.
Pick by where you will use it.
Choose Graphify if
- You build software at a company and want an Apache 2.0 engine
- Your docs, PDFs and Office files belong in the same graph as the code
- Several people or agents open pull requests against the same repository
- You want a free hosted plan with pull request review and a solver
Choose GitNexus if
- Your use is noncommercial, or you will buy a licence
- You need data-flow and taint analysis, or a preview-then-apply rename
- You want route, tool and ORM maps with raw Cypher queries
- You want contracts traced across repositories in the open-source tool
Run both on your own repository.
Install Graphify with uv tool install graphifyy, then run graphify install, which sets up Claude Code. Every other assistant has its own command on its integration page. Type /graphify . in the assistant, and the code maps on your machine with no API key.
Both tools are MCP servers, so one assistant can hold both. Ask each the questions your team asks every week, and keep the one that answers them.
Graphify vs GitNexus: questions
What people ask when they are choosing a code graph.
For a company, yes. Graphify is Apache 2.0, maps docs and media into the same graph as the code, and flags pull requests that collide. For deep code analysis such as data-flow tracking, semantic rename and route maps, GitNexus goes further, under a noncommercial licence.
GitNexus is under the PolyForm Noncommercial License 1.0.0, which permits noncommercial purposes, and its README says commercial licensing is available through akonlabs.com. Graphify is Apache 2.0, so a company can use it, change it and ship it without buying anything.
The open-source graphify CLI (Apache 2.0) against the open-source GitNexus (PolyForm Noncommercial), as each README described them on 27 October 2026. The last group is Graphify Cloud, which has a free plan; GitNexus's hosted Enterprise offering is $29 a seat.
Nobody has published a run of both on a public, shared harness, us included. Akon Labs, which builds GitNexus, publishes a chart from its own DeepSWE run, but it names no Graphify version and links no harness, so it cannot be reproduced yet. Graphify's published code result measures accuracy: on ERPNext, one Graphify tool raised an agent's key-fact coverage from 70.8% to 82.0% against grep and file reads, on six graded questions.
Yes, where the licence allows. Both register as MCP servers, so one assistant can hold both while you decide. Point structural questions at one of them, so the agent is not weighing two answers to the same question.
Run locally, neither sends your source code anywhere. Graphify parses code on your machine and collects no usage data; docs, PDFs and images go to the model you pick for the semantic pass, which can be a local Ollama. GitNexus says it has no phone-home; its wiki and chat use the model providers you configure. Graphify Cloud, if you use it, indexes the repositories you connect.
The open-source CLI is free under Apache 2.0 and needs no account. Graphify Cloud has a Free plan with no card: 3 repositories, 15 pull request reviews a month and one verification run a day. Pro and Teams raise those limits.
