Ghidra, NSA's reverse-engineering tool
I believe Capstone is merely a disassembly framework, and retdec's decompilation process is custom implementation which works on LLVM IR.

Yeah, sorry, as I understand it, it uses Capstone as the disassembler and implements an LLVM lifter over it. It was pretty dumb to describe it as "based on Capstone"; I was just mentally breaking tools down by which CFG recovery system it relied on.
