## Introduction

What The Diff is an AI-powered pull request assistant that automates the tedious parts of code review. Instead of manually writing PR descriptions, chasing stakeholders for feedback, or maintaining changelogs, What The Diff reads your git diffs and generates everything automatically.

Built by Beyond Code , What The Diff focuses on making pull requests accessible to everyone — not just developers. Product managers, designers, and stakeholders get simplified summaries in plain English (or their preferred language), while engineering teams get consistent, auto-generated PR descriptions that follow best practices.

## Key Features

### Automated PR Descriptions

What The Diff reads the diff of every pull request and writes a clear, structured description in plain English. It surfaces what changed, why it changed, and how it affects the codebase — giving reviewers immediate context without having to parse the diff themselves.

### Stakeholder Notifications

Non-technical team members rarely read PR descriptions. What The Diff sends rich summary notifications with simplified language, emoji, and optional translations so product managers, designers, and leadership stay informed without needing to understand code.

### Public Changelogs

Every merged PR can automatically appear on a beautiful public changelog page. The changelog is also available via JSON API for internal consumption — perfect for dashboards, release notes, and cross-team communication.

### Weekly Progress Reports

Teams receive automated weekly summaries of all changes across repositories — a great tool for standups, retrospectives, and manager updates.

### Inline AI Refactoring

During code review, What The Diff can suggest and apply refactoring changes directly — instead of leaving a comment for someone else to fix later.

## Who Is It For?

What The Diff is best for development teams that want to streamline their PR workflow without adding another heavy tool. It’s particularly valuable for:
- Teams with frequent PRs who want consistent, well-written descriptions
- Organizations with non-technical stakeholders who need digestible change summaries
- Open-source maintainers who want automated changelogs
- Engineering managers who want weekly progress visibility

## Conclusion

What The Diff solves a specific, valuable problem — making pull requests readable and accessible. It doesn’t write code, find bugs, or replace code review. But for teams that struggle with PR descriptions and stakeholder communication, it eliminates a surprising amount of friction. The free tier is generous enough to evaluate, and the Pro tier at $19/mo is affordable for most teams.
