Hello Hunters! I am happy to launch today a product I have been working on for a little while - ReviewHelper. The idea behind ReviewHelper is to automate the tedious parts of reviewing code pull requests, and allow developers to spend time focusing on the important and non trivial code. This product can be used to self evaluate your own code before adding reviewers to your pull request (catching some trivial bugs/possible improvements) or to review other coder's work. With the automatic scrolling + code highlighting you can easily locate any optimization instantly and the comment functionality allows you to suggest improvements instantly on the pull request page. I would love any feedback, user experience issues, or any ideas on additional features that could be added to this product. It is currently available on the chrome web store, and is compatible for Bitbucket and Github pull requests. For a longer description here is the description of the product on the chrome extension app store: Review Helper is a game-changing Chrome extension designed to empower developers by automating the tedious aspects of pull request reviews. Say goodbye to the time-consuming task of manually examining every line of code. With this powerful tool, you can now streamline your review process and allocate more time to reviewing the complex and critical aspects of your code. Our extension automatically reads Bitbucket and Github pull requests and generates code optimization suggestions, saving you hours of manual effort. By effortlessly identifying potential areas for improvement, you can quickly optimize your code and enhance its quality. With Review Helper, you'll experience increased productivity and efficiency in your code review workflow. But that's not all. Our extension also offers a seamless commenting feature, allowing you to provide feedback and collaborate directly within the pull request interface, as well as automatic scrolling and code highlighting making it easier to identify the code segments that are being changed. What sets Review Helper apart is its versatility. Not only can you use it for reviewing external pull requests, but it's also an invaluable tool for conducting self-reviews. Take control of your code quality by leveraging the extension to thoroughly assess and optimize your own work before inviting additional reviewers. This feature empowers you to refine your code and ensure it meets your high standards. With Review Helper, developers gain the freedom to focus on the more intricate and complex aspects of their code. By automating the initial suggestions and optimizations, the extension enables you to dive deeper into the intricacies of your codebase. Spend your valuable time on critical thinking and problem-solving, knowing that the initial legwork has been taken care of. Start now for free to unlock a more efficient, collaborative, and impactful code review process! We are currently compatible with Bitbucket and Github pull requests - more websites to come! Review Helper prioritizes data privacy and is committed to maintaining the highest standards of confidentiality. We want to assure you that under no circumstances do we store, utilize, or share user data for any purposes beyond delivering the best possible service experience.

@ruby_smith01 Thank you! Let me know if you have any feedback on it :)

Sounds interesting, but are there any screenshots or video examples of what it can do? Also, is it open source? Letting extensions read my GitHub (especially for private repos) is somewhat risky and I'd love to evaluate what it does before installing.

@rob_514 Thanks! Let me know if you have any feedback on the product I apologize for this but product hunt will not let me respond to comments so I am responding within this existing comment. @dager_zuniga and @bengr I am only seeing your comments now, I'm sorry for the delay. I understand your apprehension to share private code with a random extension, I should have elaborated on this prior. @dager_zuniga It does use OpenAI's API, and for now there is no limit on the requests. In order to obfuscate the code, I implemented the algorithm in a way that masks as much as possible the code before sending it to OpenAI's API. Once reading the Pull request page (the data is not stored anywhere) It sends bits and pieces of the added code to the API in random orders as to not reveal the full content. I am currently working on a more thorough approach to this, I can share a new post once it is done. Here is a youtube link of how the application works :
Let me know if you have any other questions :)

This looks very cool, I would like to see more information about how it handles data, or at least some information about what exactly is processing (is this using OpenAi's API, is this open source, is there a limit). It would be a bit dangerous to run this on private repos. More transparency of these aspects would be helpful.
