Additional AWS infrastructure costs may apply. Use the AWS Pricing Calculator to estimate your infrastructure costs.
Dimension | Description | Cost/month |
|---|---|---|
Standard plan - number of active authors | The number of active authors you pay for - pick Standard or Pro, NOT BOTH! | $21.00 |
Pro plan - number of authors | The number of active authors you pay for - pick Standard or Pro, NOT BOTH! | $32.00 |
Dimensions summary
You choose one of two plans, priced per active author per month. An active author is anyone who committed code in the past three months, counted once even across multiple codebases. Pick Standard or Pro, not both. The Standard plan covers code health and technical debt management. The Pro plan adds portfolio, team, and delivery insights plus code coverage. Both scale by the number of authors you select, so cost rises as you add authors. There is no cap on the number of active authors.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
An active author is anyone who committed code in the past three months to the codebases you analyze. The three-month period is a sliding window starting at your most recent commit. Each person is counted once, even across multiple codebases. People who have not committed in three months are included for free.
Your cost is based on how many active authors you have. You can scale up or down by changing your subscription in the customer portal. There is no cap on active authors. The number of users who can log in and use features is unlimited and does not affect the fee.
Standard covers technical debt management, CodeHealth analysis, knowledge distribution insights, and automated code review. Pro includes everything in Standard plus a software portfolio overview, team insights, delivery insights, and code coverage measurement. Both plans bill per active author. You pick one plan, not both.

Delivery details
On-Prem Deployment - AMI with CloudFormation
The deployment diagram shows an EC2 instance running CodeScene in Docker and the Load balancer (ALB). There's a web server running on the instance and listening on port 3003 (plain HTTP). Access to this port is granted to ALB via a security group rule. Outgoing Internet traffic is via Internet GW. Daily backups with EBS snapshots via Lifecycle Manager. Logs are sent to codescene CloudWatch group. SSH Connection to the instance via SSM (ec2-user)
CloudFormation Template (CFT)
AWS CloudFormation templates are JSON or YAML-formatted text files that simplify provisioning and management on AWS. The templates describe the service or application architecture you want to deploy, and AWS CloudFormation uses those templates to provision and configure the required services (such as Amazon EC2 instances or Amazon RDS DB instances). The deployed application and associated resources are called a "stack."

Usage instructions
Check out our Getting Started documentation: https://docs.enterprise.codescene.io/latest/getting-started/aws-marketplace.html
This product requires an Internet connection to deploy and perform subsequent updates of the product. The following packages are downloaded on deployment:
- docker-compose binary: https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/
- codescene docker image: https://hub.docker.com/r/codescene/codescene
This product also requires an ongoing Internet connection. The following external services are required to properly function:
This product is accessible only via HTTPS - you MUST set the "CertificateARN" parameter for this to work. The certificate must be created separately by your infrastructure team - see aws docs for more details: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/acm/latest/userguide/gs.html
The "IngressIP" template parameter specifies the source IP range allowed to access the deployed application. It should be specified according to your network security policies. Note that "PR Integration" (https://docs.enterprise.codescene.io/latest/integrations/pr-integration/integrate-into-ci-cd.html ), requires an open network route from your Git provider (such as GitHub, BitBucket, GitLab, or Azure DevOps) to the CodeScene app to receive PR webhooks events. If you have an on-premise installation of a Git provider (such as GitHub Enterprise) you can restrict the incoming traffic to your IP ranges. If you use a publicly hosted Git provider (such as github.com) you need to either allow all traffic with "0.0.0.0/0" (less secure) or periodically update the load balancer's security group based on the provider's published IP ranges (e.g. https://api.github.com/meta ).
An IAM role (CodeSceneEC2Role) is created during deployment. This role gives the CodeScene instance necessary permissions for communicating with AWS License Manager (to fetch Contract license info), to deliver logs to CloudWatch, and for secure connections to the instance via Session Manager (SSM).
After the CloudFormation stack is deployed, access the CodeScene web UI via a custom hostname/domain (that you created and associated with the load balancer (ALB)), If you don't have a custom domain, use the ALB's domain - to find it, go to the 'Resources' tab in the CloudFormation stack details, open the link in the "Physical ID" column of the "ApplicationLoadBalancer" resource, and copy "DNS name".
To log in for the first time, use the default admin account: 'aws.marketplace' username and the ec2 instance id as the password.
After you log in, use the web UI hostname as "CodeScene Host URL" in Configuration -> System -> Host/Network Settings. Also, consider removing the default login message in Configuration -> License. Finally, we recommend creating your own admin user in Configuration -> Authentication and deleting the default 'aws.marketplace' user.
To update the CodeScene app to the latest codescene (image) version, connect to the instance and run /home/ec2-user/codescene/codescene.sh update. To connect to the instance, open the AWS console -> EC2 -> right-click on the codescene instance -> Connect -> Session Manager -> Connect (make sure the username is ec2-user).

Codebase Insights with Simple, Actionable Advice
Reviewed on Mar 02, 2026
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
I love CodeScene's simplicity and the concrete advice it gives on how to improve. I also appreciate how it anchors suggestions on improving the codebase from literature and well-known development practices. The initial setup was very straightforward, with running the docker locally and pointing it to codebases being very easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
It was not so easy to understand the portfolio and all the menu navigation. I would love to see more metrics or insights at a glance instead of hidden beneath each menu item.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
CodeScene provides insights into the authors, risks, and health of the codebase, and gives team knowledge distribution.

Reviewed on Oct 09, 2025
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
What I appreciate most about CodeScene is how it transforms code analysis into actionable insights. The platform surpasses standard static analysis by identifying hotspots, technical debt, and aspects of team dynamics, which supports engineering teams in making well-informed decisions. Its visualizations are easy to understand, and the recommendations are genuinely useful, making it simpler to prioritize refactoring efforts and enhance code health over time. Additionally, the course content is thoughtfully organized—concise, targeted, and readily applicable to real-world situations. It’s evident that CodeScene is designed with developers’ needs in mind.
What do you dislike about the product?
While CodeScene offers powerful insights and visualizations, one area that could be improved is the initial onboarding experience. For new users, some of the advanced features and terminology might feel overwhelming without additional context or examples. A more guided walkthrough or interactive tutorials could help users get up to speed faster.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
CodeScene helps identify and manage technical debt, code complexity, and hotspots in a codebase — problems that are often overlooked until they impact delivery timelines or system stability. By visualizing these areas and providing actionable insights, it enables teams to prioritize refactoring efforts and improve code quality proactively.
For me, the biggest benefit has been the ability to make data-driven decisions during code reviews and sprint planning. It also helps in communicating technical debt and architectural risks to non-technical stakeholders, which is crucial for long-term planning and resource allocation.

CodeScene Delivers Smart, Actionable Insights Beyond Static Analysis
Reviewed on Sep 09, 2025
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
CodeScene stands out by focusing on behavioral code analysis rather than just static rule checks. The hotspot analysis highlights the most critical and frequently changed parts of the system, making it clear where technical debt truly matters. I especially value the GitHub PR integration, where CodeScene posts automated, intelligent review comments — combining code health, test coverage, and change coupling. This ensures that risky changes are caught early, before they reach production.
What do you dislike about the product?
The platform has a bit of a learning curve, especially for teams unfamiliar with concepts like hotspots or change coupling. The UI, while feature-rich, can feel slightly heavy on very large repositories. Integration with coverage tools like JaCoCo is powerful, but it requires some manual configuration, unlike the plug-and-play model of other tools.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
CodeScene pinpoints hotspots and risky code that traditional tools miss, helping us focus on what truly impacts maintainability. It combines behavioral analysis with test coverage to reduce technical debt and improve release confidence.
