Codepliant is at v400.0.0. 330 versions built overnight. The project is production-ready.
An open-source CLI that scans any codebase and generates compliance documents -- Privacy Policy, Terms of Service, AI Disclosure, DPA, and 105+ more -- based on actual code analysis. No questionnaires, no network calls, no AI. Purely deterministic. Run npx codepliant go and get every document you need in under a second.
