CodeRabbit: Cut Code Review Time & Bugs in Half. Instantly.

Great engineering teams don’t wait days for reviews; they ship in hours with confidence. CodeRabbit isn’t just another assistant, it’s an AI reviewer that understands your codebase, your guidelines and your intent, then acts with senior‑engineer judgment inside every pull request so workflows, not stalls.

From messy debug sessions to AI‑powered clarity, it summarises, diagrams, lint-checks, proposes fixes, and even generates tests so pull requests move from opened to merged with speed and safety.

Public repositories get full Pro‑tier reviews free, with clear paths to scale for private codebases. Set it up in minutes and watch your team accelerate from feedback to final in one sprint, not three. Code smarter, ship stronger and give every developer the confidence of a seasoned reviewer on demand.
