This is a very good and common question we get, thanks for bringing it to the discussion. We have a very strong conviction that these kinds of tools have to be open-source to solve this trust issue.
In fact, we wrote this blog post where we talk about how we're building this without storing your code or passing it through our server at all: https://www.watermelontools.com/post/building-a-code-archeology-toolbox-without-storing-your-code https://www.watermelontools.com/post/building-a-code-archeol...
You still have to give us read access to your GitHub, Slack, Jira, etc. Which is still asking for access to corporate info, but you know... people are very used to giving access to these tools via oAuth flows.
Regarding running on dev computers, we have one answer to that: Providing value as a GitHub Action. We still haven't launched it (it's gonna happen very soon), but our hypothesis is that by packaging the product in such format, we'll be able to address that very valid concern.
Thanks!
