What becomes possible

Navigate and build with confidence as your architecture grows beyond what fits in any one person's head.

20%
Technical Confidence

Make architectural decisions faster and with more conviction when you can see the entire system's connections and predict how changes will affect different services.
30%
Integration Bugs

Catch potential issues before they hit production by understanding how changes ripple through your services and identifying hidden dependencies early.
15%
Team Productivity

Stop context-switching and searching through code to understand system behavior Get to full understanding right where you make technical decisions.

Give your teams x-ray vision

Stop guessing about service dependencies. Start seeing exactly how your changes affect all the pieces in your system before pushing to prod.

Traditional Approach

Isolated Knowledge

Critical system insights trapped in senior engineers' heads and scattered documentation

Blind to Change Impacts

Integration issues and dependencies discovered only after they've impacted other teams and services

Slow, Uncertain Decisions

Technical decisions delayed by the time it takes to understand system-wide impacts

With Nimbus

Living System Map

Your entire service architecture, automatically mapped and always up to date

Early Problem Detection

Spot potential issues and conflicts during design and implementation — before they affect production

Fast, Informed Decisions

Make technical decisions quickly with complete visibility into their consequences
"Nimbus has been crucial in understanding and communicating the scope of work. Our team went through many changes and it became difficult to keep track of everything we had done and wanted to do. Nimbus simplified our processes for discovery, design, and review which lead to faster and better results."

"Our system had evolved beyond what any single engineer could hold in their head. What looked like a simple change could cascade through half a dozen services. We needed a way to make these connections visible before they became production surprises. Nimbus made it possible for us to do this without drawn-out design cycles."

Powerful tools for modern systems

Transform how your team explores, plans, and builds complex software



UNDERSTAND
YOUR SYSTEM

Interactive System Explorer

See your entire system as a living map. Automatically discover and visualize service relationships from your code, with drill-down from high-level architecture to specific implementations.

Living System Knowledge

Your documentation evolves with your system. Code references, system diagrams, and design decisions automatically stay in sync with your implementation.



PLAN
YOUR CHANGES

Change Impact Analysis

Predict the downstream impacts of changes before they happen. Automatically identify affected services, dependencies, and teams that need to be involved in your changes.

Engineer-First RFC Editor

Design and document with everything you need in one place. Reference code, embed live system views, and create tickets without leaving your design environment.



IMPLEMENT
WITH CONFIDENCE

Intelligent Design Assistance

Make better design decisions with AI assistance. Get real-time suggestions for missing considerations, relevant code patterns, and potential architectural impacts.

Works With Your Stack

Hooks directly into your existing workflow tools — GitHub, Jira, and design environments. Build and share knowledge where your team already works, without adding another disconnected tool.
"Every engineer I've worked with bemoans the inconsistency of documentation. Whether it's design documentation or feature specs, it often lives in spaces disconnected from the platforms we regularly operate in, like GitHub or Jira. This separation results in documentation that is forgotten, quickly outdated, and stripped of the context in which it was initially crafted.

By connecting and referencing GitHub PRs and Jira tickets to write, review, store, and retrieve documentation, our team was finally able to codify a process we had previously attempted—and failed to establish—several times over."
