About us

80% of code in modern applications is code your developers didn’t write, but “borrowed” from the internet. With over 3M Open Source Software (OSS) projects, 43M versions, and 3.1T downloads yearly, development teams can gain tremendous benefits from leveraging the OSS ecosystem, as long as organizations invest in the tooling to address the security, scalability and sustainability challenges that come with it.  At Endor Labs, we've created the first open source dependency lifecycle management platform to help OSS consumers select, secure and maintain dependencies effectively.
