    Code Review for the AI Era

    Sourcery Closed source Since

    AI code review platform for the AI era. Automated code reviews, security scanning, and team analytics across GitHub, GitLab, VS Code, and JetBrains. Used by 300,000+ developers.

    + Pros

    • Automated code reviews catch bugs, vulnerabilities, and tech debt before production
    • Security scanning across all repos with high-signal vulnerability detection

    Introduction

    Sourcery is an AI-powered code review platform designed for the era of AI-driven development. As AI coding tools generate more code faster, traditional peer reviews can’t keep up — PRs pile up, security vulnerabilities slip through, and tech debt accumulates. Sourcery solves this with automated code reviews, security scanning, and team analytics that work at AI-development speed.

    Trusted by 300,000+ developers and enterprises including Cisco, Sky, HelloFresh, Red Hat, and Ant Group, Sourcery is SOC 2 certified and integrates directly into GitHub, GitLab, VS Code, and JetBrains.

    Key Features

    Automated Code Reviews

    Sourcery reviews every PR automatically — catching logic errors, edge cases, style violations, and maintainability issues. Reviews include clear summaries, diagrams of code changes, and line-by-line feedback with suggested fixes.

    Security Scanning

    Built-in security scanning detects vulnerabilities across dependencies, code patterns, and configurations. The high-signal, low-noise scanner helps teams prioritize real threats without drowning in false positives. Available from PRs to repos.

    Team Analytics

    Engineering leaders get visibility into review velocity, code quality trends, and team bottlenecks — helping them identify where processes can improve.

    IDE Integration

    Sourcery works inside VS Code and JetBrains IDEs, providing real-time feedback before code is ever committed. Developers can request a review anytime and fix issues with a single click.

    Agent-Ready

    Sourcery integrates with AI coding agents like Claude Code, providing feedback that agents can act on immediately — fixing issues across multiple files without human intervention.

    Security

    Sourcery is SOC 2 certified and offers:

    • No training on your code
    • Zero-retention options with trusted providers
    • Bring your own LLM endpoints (Team+)
    • Data passes through Sourcery servers but is not stored

    Who Is It For?

    Sourcery targets engineering teams adopting AI-driven development who need to maintain code quality and security as code velocity increases. It’s particularly valuable for:

    • Teams using AI coding agents that produce more code per developer
    • Organizations that need security scanning without hiring additional security engineers
    • Engineering leaders who want data-driven visibility into code quality trends
    • Open source projects that need free, automated code review

    Conclusion

    Sourcery fills a critical gap in the AI development toolchain: quality assurance at AI speed. As AI coding tools accelerate how much code teams can produce, traditional review processes become the bottleneck. Sourcery automates that bottleneck — catching bugs, vulnerabilities, and tech debt before they reach production — without slowing developers down.
