Kai is a semantic analysis engine that sits on top of Git. It captures meaningful changes, generates semantic diffs, and produces safe selective CI plans.

Kai is a semantic infrastructure for code change that understands code meaning—functions, dependencies, behavior impact—not just line diffs. It powers precise CI, context-aware IDEs, and verifiable AI coding agents.

    Semantic analysis engine on top of Git that captures meaningful code changes.

    Git-native means the analysis stays in sync with version control automatically.

    Good for teams who want AI to understand code evolution, not just current state.

    Semantic capture is more useful than raw diff for understanding code intent.
