Open Source License Audit
Identify copyleft obligations, missing licenses, and IP risk in any GitHub repo
Before an acquisition, product launch, or open-source contribution, you need to know whether your dependencies carry copyleft obligations (GPL, AGPL, LGPL) that could force you to open-source your code or affect your IP rights. SecOSS audits every npm and PyPI dependency in a GitHub repository, classifies each license as safe, notice, copyleft, or unknown, and flags missing LICENSE files and AI-generated code markers.
How to use
- 1Enter a GitHub repository URL โ public or private (add a token for private repos).

- 3Each dependency is classified: safe (MIT, Apache), notice (attribution required), copyleft (GPL/AGPL โ share-alike risk), or unknown.
- 4Review the full report and share with legal counsel for M&A due diligence or compliance review.
