How CodeValue Works
From upload to acquisition — every step secured, verified, and transparent.
Turn Your Repository Into Revenue
Connect Your GitHub
Sign in with GitHub and pick the repository and branch you want valued. Private repositories are fully supported. Your code stays in your GitHub — we never store it during valuation.
Ephemeral AI Valuation
We clone the repository once into a short-lived sandbox, run four parallel AI assessments (architecture, code health, security, originality), cross-reference dependencies against CVE databases — then discard the working copy. The code never lands in our vault at this stage.
Review Your Score
You receive a composite CodeValue score (0–100), a valuation range, and a signed certificate. The certificate is cryptographically verifiable and shareable.
Set Your Price & List
Set an asking price informed by the AI valuation. Your listing goes live with an AI-generated description, score breakdown, and tech stack tags. Your source code is never exposed.
Approve the Sale, Then Release
A buyer pays — funds are held in escrow. You receive a prompt to approve the delivery. Only after your explicit approval does the code come to our encrypted vault, where it stays for the 72-hour inspection window. After the buyer confirms, you get paid — 0% platform fees through April 2026.
Acquire Verified Codebases With Confidence
Browse & Search
Filter by tech stack, language, score range, and price. Every listing includes an AI assessment summary, architecture diagram description, and dependency audit.
Purchase Through Escrow
Funds are held securely — the seller doesn’t receive payment until you confirm. Stripe handles all payment processing, KYC, and tax documentation.
Inspect the Code
You receive an obfuscated inspection copy for 72 hours. Core proprietary files are redacted. Config files, tests, README, and build scripts are visible. Enough to validate quality without exposing IP.
Confirm or Dispute
Satisfied? Confirm and receive the full, clean codebase. Concerned? Open a dispute and our AI-assisted mediation process reviews the case.
Security Is Not a Feature. It’s the Foundation.
AES-256-GCM Encryption
Every codebase encrypted with a unique key. Keys are themselves encrypted with a master vault key.
SHA-256 Integrity
Cryptographic hash verification ensures code is never tampered with between upload and delivery.
Signed Certificates
HMAC-SHA256 signed valuations are independently verifiable. No trust required — verify the math.
