Architecture Drift Detection - Keep Docs in Sync with Code | Archyl
Automatically detect when your architecture documentation drifts from your actual codebase. Get a 0-100% health score and enforce thresholds in CI/CD.
Never Let Your Architecture Docs Go Stale Again
Archyl's AI compares your documented architecture against your actual codebase, scores accuracy from 0 to 100%, and shows you exactly what drifted -- so your docs stay trustworthy.

Architecture diagrams look right on day one, but every refactor, new service, and renamed module quietly makes them wrong. Nobody notices until someone makes a decision based on outdated information.
No way to measure accuracy
You have architecture docs, but how accurate are they? Without a quantitative score, you can't tell whether your documentation is 95% right or 40% wrong.
Manual reviews don't scale
Periodic architecture reviews catch some drift, but they're expensive, infrequent, and always lag behind the pace of code changes.
Connect your repositories
Link your GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket repos. Archyl scans your codebase to build a map of your actual architecture.
AI compares docs vs code
Archyl's AI engine cross-references your documented C4 model against the real code structure, dependencies, and communication patterns.
Receive a 0-100% health score with a detailed breakdown: what matches, what drifted, and what's missing from your documentation.
Fix drift with AI suggestions
Archyl suggests specific updates to bring your docs back in sync. Accept suggestions or adjust them before applying.
Health score (0-100%)
A single number that tells you how accurately your architecture documentation reflects reality. Track it over time to spot trends.
Element-level drift details
See exactly which systems, containers, and components drifted. Know what was added, removed, renamed, or restructured.
Drift history tracking
Monitor how your drift score evolves over sprints and releases. Identify whether your documentation health is improving or degrading.
AI-powered fix suggestions
Get concrete recommendations to resolve each drift item. Archyl suggests the minimal changes needed to restore accuracy.
Run drift checks in your pipeline. Fail builds or create alerts when drift exceeds your threshold.
Configure automatic drift scans on a schedule. Get notified when your documentation health drops below a defined threshold.
Post-sprint architecture review
After each sprint, run a drift scan to catch documentation gaps before they compound. Keep your architecture docs as current as your code.
Acquiring a company? Verify that their architecture documentation actually matches their codebase before you sign.
Compliance & audit readiness
Prove to auditors that your architecture documentation is accurate and up-to-date with a quantifiable drift score.
Stop guessing if your docs are accurate
Connect your repos and get your first drift score in minutes. Know exactly where your architecture documentation stands.
