Ito▲449I'm Evan and I made Ito.ai It's code review that actually runs your code. The result is that it finds more bugs with a smaller false positive rate. You get screenshots, videos, and run logs. I built Ito because manual verification sucks and I thought I could automate it. I've been a professional developer for 15 years and now more than ever, I'm just spending time making sure things work. I looked into all of the other agentic testing tools that click around a url you give them and frankly, they sucked. They just didn't work. I figured to be able to actually testing things you need to run…

cubic▲733Hey HN, I'm Paul, the founder of cubic.dev, an AI code reviewer for complex codebases. Over the past few months we’ve completely rebuilt our detection engine, and I wanted to share a few things we did to get more out of LLMs. Context: cubic specializes in code reviews for teams with complex codebases, like Better Auth, Cal.com, and PostHog. Our users have high standards. It’s important that reviews have real depth and actually understand the codebase. In the past, we've sometimes struggled with producing reviews that had deep insight into complex changes. It didn't feel like we were leaving…

Hey HN, We’re two developers (co-founders) with a team of 20 who got tired of spending hours reviewing PRs, so we built Infinitcode.ai, an AI-powered code reviewer that: - *Summarizes PRs in plain English*: No more deciphering 1,000-line diff jungles - *Catches more than bugs*: Security holes, performance pitfalls, code smells, even typos (yes, we’ll flag “vurnerabilities” and vulnerabilities) - *Zero onboarding*: Works instantly—no “let me learn your codebase for weeks” nonsense. Why we’re posting: We’re in alpha and need brutal honesty. Roast our tool, mock our UI, or tell us why AI will…

I built LlamaPReview to solve a common frustration: most AI code reviewers either require complex setup or don't truly understand project context. Key differentiators: 1. One-click installation through GitHub Marketplace - no configuration needed 2. Analyzes your entire codebase first to understand: - Project structure - Coding patterns - Naming conventions - Architecture decisions 3. Completely free with no usage limits 4. Fully automated PR reviews with zero human intervention required Technical implementation: - Built on top of llama-github (my open source project) - Focuses on deep code…

Hi HN! I've been working on a code review app for GitHub called Crocodile for about a year. I used to work at Microsoft where we used a tool called CodeFlow for reviewing code and I missed it after I left. I know many other ex-Microsoft engineers feel the same. Here are some of the distinguishing features of Crocodile that are inspired by CodeFlow: * Comments float above the code instead of being inline. Long discussions that are displayed inline make it really hard to review the code. * Comment on any text selection in the file, even a single character. * Comments don't get lost when code…

Hi HN, hunterbrooks and nbrad here from Ellipsis (https://www.ellipsis.dev). Ellipsis automatically reviews your PRs when opened and on each new commit. If you tag @ellipsis-dev in a comment, it can make changes to the PR (via direct commit or side PR) and answer questions, just like a human. Demo video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X61NGZpaNQA So far, we have dozens of open source projects and companies using Ellipsis. We seem to have landed in a kind of sweet spot where there’s a good match between the current capabilities of AI tools and the actual needs of…

Directed acyclic graphs are muched discussed in comp-sci, but octopus appears to be the first reusable, turnkey, ready-to-wear, off-the-shelf implementation of a DAG for application development, in any language, that I'm aware of. This is remarkable because DAGs hit a sweet spot in the middle of the three common programming paradigms (OO, event-driven, functional). Let's have a DAG as the top-level structure of our applications. Data-fetching and onChange handlers live in DAG nodes, next to the data they act on. The UI flows out from the DAG with fine-grained reactivity. Our app state is…

Alchemize▲85Hey HN, we’re Robert and Sam. We’re building Alchemize, a code review platform that simplifies PRs to help you ship faster. Here’s a demo video: https://www.tella.tv/video/simplify-pr-reviews-with-alchemiz... Sample to try: https://app.tryalchemize.com/example Agentic coding has 10x’d code output. Teams are opening larger PRs more frequently, but the current tools don’t support this new coding paradigm. GitHub still presents files without structure. As engineers reviewing these massive diffs more frequently, we spent hours painstakingly reconstructing where…

I’ve spent the last 2.5 months building a product that runs LLM-powered code reviews on my pull requests — and I just launched it. The tool is built specifically for solo developers. You install it on your repo, trigger a scan by creating a pull request, and it leaves structured review comments using OpenAI under the hood. Funnily enough, I used the dev version of this app to review its own pull requests while building it. It helped me spot bugs, simplify structure, and keep quality high — all with minimal need for another human in the loop. Things I want to try out in the next months : -…
