🧬 Pinnal

See the blast radius of a code change
before you merge

Modern systems don’t break only when contracts break.
They break when implicit dependencies and hidden assumptions are missed.
Pinnal surfaces those risks early.

Why changes still break systems

  • Service-to-service calls hidden in logic

  • Shared libraries with version drift

  • Implicit assumptions in legacy code

  • Knowledge trapped in senior engineers’ heads

What Pinnal is (and isn’t)

  • Pinnal does not predict runtime failures.

  • It does not replace contracts, tests, or versioning.

  • It provides visibility — not guarantees.

  • The goal is to help engineers ask better questions before a change is merged.

Who this is for

  • Backend engineers working across multiple repositories

  • Tech leads reviewing cross-service changes

  • Architects managing shared libraries and platforms

  • Teams where tribal knowledge is still a risk
