I've been using Sweep for a few months and its scary that with most tasks it gets everything right. Every time I try it and I see a complete PR it blows me away. The rate of improvement is also crazy, I tried to have sweep do something tricky few months ago and it failed, but then a few days ago I tried that same task again and it got it perfect! Definitely give it a try.

I use this daily. It's 100x better than Github Copilot X and Code Interpreter.

Anyone who doesn't care about the correctness or quality of their code would love this tool!

I was curious at the reviews so I tried the product for a few days. The audacity to claim you are "replacing junior devs" with a primitive GPT wrapper is laughable. It is just as incompetent as ChatGPT.

This tool falls short of its promises. Just like ChatGPT, it is a mindless bot that lacks any semblance of independent thinking. The code it generates for any non-trivial task is either incorrect or introduces more problems than it solves, so its basically a glorified ChatGPT wrapper. There's a reason why AI generated content is banned on stackoverflow, and developers would be wise to avoid this tool if they seek reliable and efficient coding solutions.

don’t buy this product. the creator is a university dropout who is delusional about the capabilities of AI (and himself).

this looks like the state of the art in replicating the junior dev using AI at the moment. the team has the right approach and are only limited by the inherent limitations of generative AI right now. would give 5 stars if the actual experience right now would be great (right now it is just the best there is, but not great). as the foundational models (including open source ones) improve, companies like Sweep AI will be prepared to take advantage of them. a big risk for all startups in the space is the release of similar features and services by OpenAI or Microsoft Co-Pilot themselves.

A marvelous first-step & and truly incredible first look at the future of programming — not to mention the future of tech companies. I am genuinely astonished at the 1 star reviews: they sound SUS and make me suspicious they were written by a competitor of yours. Consider me a huge supporter — please feel free to reach out if you want some usability testing session feedback from my team and I using the product :) - John @BEASTMODE on twitter

Like any machine learning algorithm, it has its strengths and weaknesses. Right now there are too many issues of text-based AI to be considered robust for any developer's use (most notably, its answers are confidently incorrect about 99% of the time). It's genuinely fascinating and sad how much people overhype generative AI this year.
