What they do
Problem
Mobile app stores lack transparency about what third-party code and SDKs are embedded in apps, making it hard to assess quality, provenance, and risk.
Solution
SourceDNA provides a software similarity analysis web service that scans iOS and Android apps to identify and match embedded code/SDK variants across platforms.
Who it's for
Mobile app developers and organizations analyzing apps for code quality, provenance, and third-party SDK usage.
