Govern license usage on every commit

Our open source license policies let you flag and fix issues within your pipeline. Prevent unwanted license types from ever making it to production. Easily report on license usage across your organization.

Policies for License Usage

SOOS makes it easy to configure rules for allowable open source license types based on your company-specific open source license policies, so when you scan your software, it’ll check for non-compliance with the license usage terms as well as company policies, and flag any issues that need to be addressed.

Automate Your Software Inventory

Use software composition analysis (SCA) to scan your software and identify your open source components. SOOS auto-creates an accurate Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) listing all open source components in your software so you can check for and demonstrate compliance, and with access to historical scan data, you can also provide point-in-time compliance reporting when needed.

Lights Out License Checks

Scan every build for potential open source license issues with unlimited, pipeline-integrated scanning. You can also check license usage for specific projects before you start building, to prevent having to re-do work if the project uses a non-allowable license. SOOS compares your license usage against your company policies and the largest open source license database, with more than 750 licenses analyzed, so you can be confident you aren’t using open source software in a way you shouldn’t be.

What dev teams love about SOOS

SOOS is driving us to be a way more efficient organization. We now know where we need to focus and it’s something we didn’t have a good grasp on until we had the SOOS spotlight on it.
Mike Esler, CTO, Bloom Credit
SOOS fits right into our day-to-day so we can keep up with things instead of disrupting work to fix prod issues. I run all of my projects through SCA and know what’s going on. This is critical as I need to show we’re in compliance with license use and don’t have known exploits.
Michael Hoey, CEO, Source Meridian
A great fit for SMBs. I always put off scanning my apps because the cost in time and money was too high. SOOS takes that off the table.
VP of Engineering, Mid-size Tech Company
From the start, we loved how simple and clear SOOS is. We understand what we’re being shown and what we need to do. And it works with our environment. In fact, SOOS has made a bunch of changes to make it even easier to use with our specific workflows. I used to hear so much noise from our devs; not so anymore.
Chris Sadler, Principal Software Engineer, PayPoint
It’s great to be able to see introduction paths. With our old vendor we had to leave the tool and do our own research. SOOS speeds up our entire workflow.
