Retrieval
We Benchmarked the Most Popular Code Search Tools. We Beat All of Them.
codegraph has 19K GitHub stars. GitNexus has 40K. Aider has 20K. We benchmarked 7 systems on 302 tasks across 17 codebases, 8 languages. knowing is 3.79x more precise than codegraph, 6.00x vs GitNexus, 6.35x vs Gortex, 22.0x vs grep. 13 self-adapting mechanisms that compound over time.
Your AI Agent's Code Search Hits 2% of the Time. We Benchmarked It.
Rigorous benchmark of AI agent code retrieval: 107 tasks, 5 repos, 5 languages, 4 competitors. grep precision: 2%. GitNexus: 7.6%. knowing: 23% (11.5x better, p<0.0001). Plus: 193x faster indexing, 28x less RAM, 48x more token-efficient than Repomix. The first statistically validated comparison of code intelligence tools for AI agents.
