Show HN: Nitpicler. I was quoted $1M for AI PR review – so I bulit it myself

Postman engineer built Nitpicler, an open-source AI code review tool, after being quoted $1M/year for commercial alternatives. The tool costs about $300/month in token usage, reviews thousands of PRs daily in under 30 seconds, and deploys in under a minute.

Hi HN. I wanted an AI reviewer on every PR at work. Quotes came back around $1M/year, almost entirely per-seat licensing. I built a true open source alternative. We use it internally at Postman and the cost is ~$300/m in token usage. It's open source, self hosted also supports AWS lambda, cloudflare workers or Github actions and can be deployed in under a minute. It is lightweight only diff is sent to the LLM , support any LLM provider and scalable. Our busiest repo has thousands of PRs a day and we usually get PR reviews within 30 seconds. Give it a try and let me know what you think - https://nitpicker.dev https://nitpicker.dev Comments URL: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49244936 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49244936 Points: 2 Comments: 0
