How to Turn Your Codebase Into a Business Asset, Not a Liability
June 7, 2025
Your codebase is more than just lines of logic—it's the foundation of your product and, in many ways, your business. But too often, it becomes a silent liability: undocumented, fragile, hard to scale, and impossible for outsiders (or even new team members) to fully grasp.
The Hidden Business Risk of Technical Debt
Technical debt is often treated as a purely engineering problem. In reality, it's a business risk—affecting release velocity, security posture, team productivity, and even company valuation. A messy or opaque codebase can stall a funding round, kill a merger, or block go-to-market initiatives.

Non-technical stakeholders are rarely equipped to understand the implications of bad code. That's where CodeOpps.ai steps in.
