which tools support Linting for early stages of Digital Design flow?

I am trying to understand the Linting process. I know that mainly JasperGold is the tool for this purpose. Though I think JasperGold is more suited for later stages of the design. As a RTL Design Engineer, I want to make sure that if another tool has the capability of doing Linting earlier in the flow. for example, does Xcelium, Genus or Confomal support linting. I have seen some contradicting information online regarding this topic, though I can't find anything related to Linting on any of these tools.

Thanks
