alt Hacker NewsHow many more bugs does it produce if we use CodeRabbit to review PRs? I assume the number will be less? (Asking seriously and hopefully if the product will help or would’ve caught the bugs, while also pointing out the natural conclusion of the article is to purchase your service :) )
I've used it in some repos. It doesn't catch all code review issues, especially around product requirements and logic simplification, and occasionally produces irrelevant comments (suggesting a temporary model downgrade).
But it's well worth it. It has saved me some considerable time. I let it run first, even before my own final self-review (so if others do the same, the article's data might be biased). It's particularly good at identifying dead code and logical issues. If you tune it with its own custom rules (like Claude.md), you can also cut a lot of noise.
