Silverthread is one of the leaders in software economics ― helping executives take financial control over complex software assets. Based on 15 years of applied research at a leading  Technology Institute and Business School, the CodeMRI® platform helps organizations translate software architectural health metrics into quantifiable business impacts. Silverthread has helped 100+ global commercial and government institutions gain visibility into their software asset health, and dramatically improve operational and financial outcomes.

Silverthread’s CodeMRI® technology has improved quality, lowered the cost and risk of complex software systems, and freed up resources to drive top-line growth. Silverthread’s technologies translate architectural health metrics into financial and strategic KPIs, enabling effective steering by illuminating relationships between an organization’s economic performance and the health of a codebase (or portfolio of codebases) it develops or outsources. They saved one client $35 million per year and doubled the developer productivity of another – by helping them gain visibility into their software design quality, quantify risk, understand ‘cost of ownership’ and risk consequences, fix systems, and drive economic results from better software decisions.

Their offering is similar to the diagnostic tool offered by CAST (check lisitng) but extending further into software economics.
