=Codacy (software)= Codacy is an automated code review tool that helps developers save time in code reviews and manage technical debt and that can be used in the cloud or installed on premise.

Codacy breaks down the code quality on demand into different categories, including complexity, code style and performance. The service also lets users set goals related to each category and managers can see how each developer is performing.

"Improve Now" actions help developers quantify the progress that can be made by recommended tweaks across all categories. User-defined code patterns allow developers to create their own programming rules against which to benchmark their code.
