Every developer knows the feeling: you spend half the day debugging, searching Stack Overflow, or explaining old code to a teammate.
That’s not work — that’s friction. And it’s costing teams real time and money.
The Silent Time Killers
Most developers lose 25–35% of their week to three things:
Understanding old code
Fixing repetitive bugs
Writing or updating documentation
It’s not a skill issue — it’s a workflow issue.
The AI Shortcut
Codexia eliminates that waste by turning guesswork into answers. It explains complex code, suggests fixes before errors appear, and keeps your docs fresh automatically.
What That Time Is Worth
If your team of 5 engineers saves even 8 hours a week each, that’s 160+ hours a month — time you can spend building new features instead of fighting fires.
Developers shouldn’t spend their days explaining code.
They should spend them creating.
