Support our work building and maintaining critical open source Software Composition Analysis (SCA) and SBOM tools to help developers and organizations effectively use open source software and comply with FOSS licenses, manage dependencies and track known vulnerabilities.

AboutCode is a community of open source developers making open source easier to use by building open source tools for SCA - it is also the collective name for these tools.

We maintain key open source projects on GitHub to discover, identify, and track open source software components origin license and vulnerabilities, including standards like Package URL (PURL), databases like the LicenseDB (in ScanCode), VulnerableCode for vulnerabilities and PurlDB for packages, applications like ScanCode.io, tools like the industry leading ScanCode Toolkit, and libraries like python-inspector, container-inspector, debian-inspector and license-expression.

nexB is the primary sponsor of AboutCode, contributing code and support for the open source community. nexB offers commercial software provenance analysis services for organizations, and is committed to helping build and maintain the very best open source SCA tools out there.

Sponsoring AboutCode projects helps us provide financial support to core contributors and external contributors working on these industry leading and critical tools, data and standards. In particular, we maintain a roadmap for each project and your support will contribute directly to bug fixing and new feature developments. Is there something in particular that you would like your funding to support? Please reach out!
