##
−

Cons
- Not a coding agent — reviews code but doesn't write it
- Security scanning limits on lower tiers (10 repos on Pro, biweekly scans)
- IDE integration limited to VS Code and JetBrains
- Requires third-party LLM providers (OpenAI)
- Review depth depends on custom rules configuration

## 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.
