How it works

Three steps to cleaner code

PatternIO integrates seamlessly into your development workflow. No complex setup required.

01

Install the CLI

Download the binary for your platform (Linux, macOS, Windows) and generate your API token from the dashboard.

02

Analyze your project

Run the static analysis locally on your Java codebase and push the results to the cloud with a single command.

03

View on Dashboard

Track project health, explore UML diagrams, and review AI-validated code smell detection results online.

Built for teams

For Java developers & teams

Everything you need to maintain a healthy, well-architected Java codebase.

Code Smell Detection

Detects Large Class, Long Method, Feature Envy, Data Clumps, High Coupling, Low Cohesion, and Duplicate Code.

Design Pattern Suggestion

Identifies all 23 GoF patterns (Behavioral, Creational, Structural) using advanced AI analysis.

AI-Powered Validation

Filter false positives with support for DeepSeek, Claude, Gemini, GPT, and Groq providers.

UML Class Diagrams

Generates Mermaid and Graphviz/DOT diagrams with inheritance, composition, and dependency relations.

Web Dashboard

Push analysis results to the cloud to track project health over time and share insights with your team.

Multiple Output Formats

Export results to Console, JSON, TXT, HTML, Mermaid, or DOT for integration with other tools.
