🚀 I Built an AI Tool That Reviews GitHub PRs — Would Love Your Feedback 🙏
Hey dev.to folks 👋
I’m a solo dev who’s been working on a tool called SmartReviewer — it automatically reviews your GitHub Pull Requests using AI and static analysis.
The idea came from pain I’ve felt myself:
Opening a PR and wondering “Is this secure? Is this performant? Did I just ship a bug?”
So I built something to help.
🧠 What it does
When you open or update a PR, SmartReviewer:
- Adds inline comments about security, performance, and code quality issues
- Combines static analysis + AI-powered suggestions
- Gives feedback instantly, right inside the PR
- Works with JavaScript / TypeScript (for now)
It’s kinda like having an AI team lead review your code.
🛠️ How it works
- Connect your GitHub repo
- Select which repos to enable
- Done ✅ — it’ll auto-review new PRs and comment suggestions
You also get a dashboard to:
- Track issue types across PRs
- Monitor how your team is doing over time
💡 Why I built it
I wanted faster feedback without relying on teammates being available. Also, most tools only lint for syntax or formatting — I wanted deeper insights.
Plus, it’s fun to build stuff that feels like magic ✨
👀 Try it out

It’s free to try — no credit card or weird hoops.
🙏 Would love your thoughts
- What do you think about the idea?
- Anything that feels confusing or could be better?
- Would you use something like this?
I’m early in the journey (still hunting for the first 50 real users), so your feedback would mean the world 🙇♂️
Thanks for reading ❤️
