Axiom Refract vs Lattix
Dependency structure matrices for enterprise — without modern AI integration
Lattix provides dependency structure matrix (DSM) analysis for enterprise codebases, enabling architects to define and enforce layering rules. It is a mature enterprise tool but lacks modern AI agent integration, broad language support, and automated compliance mapping.
Feature Comparison
| Feature | Axiom Refract | Lattix |
|---|---|---|
| Architecture Governance | ✓ | ✓ |
| SPOF Detection | ✓ | — |
| Blast Radius Analysis | ✓ | ✓ |
| Dead Code Detection | ✓ | — |
| Dependency Mapping | ✓ | ✓ |
| Compliance Mapping | ✓ | — |
| MCP/AI Agent Integration | ✓ | — |
| Multi-Language (145+) | ✓ | — |

Where Lattix Falls Short
- No native MCP or AI agent integration — designed for manual architect workflows
- Language support limited to Java, C/C++, .NET, and a few others
- No compliance framework mapping or automated evidence generation
What Axiom Refract Does Differently
Modern AI Integration
Axiom ships with a 16-tool MCP server. Lattix was designed before AI agents existed and has no equivalent integration path.
Automated Deliverables
Axiom produces governed deliverables automatically per scan. Lattix requires manual rule definition and architect-driven analysis sessions.
Language Breadth
Axiom parses 145+ languages including infrastructure files. Lattix supports fewer than 10 language ecosystems.
Who Should Consider Axiom Refract
Enterprise architecture teams using Lattix DSMs that want to add automated governance, AI-native integration, and broader language support without abandoning their existing layering discipline.
