Autofix SuggestionsYes

Autofix button generates fixes for all occurrences of an issue; metered by AI credits, usage-priced on Open Source.

Autofix via Agentic PRsYes

Autofix opens a PR or commits onto an existing PR branch; vulnerability autofix opens PRs with a breakage score.

Who it's for

Notable strengths

  • Reachability analysis with call-path visualisation plus a tunable Dynamic Risk Score combining CVSS, EPSS, and reachability
  • Autofix covers both code issues and dependency upgrades, opening PRs with an AI-assessed breakage score
  • 30-tool MCP server and JSON-output CLI give AI agents structured access to issues, metrics, and vulnerabilities
  • Coverage tracking across line, branch, condition, and composite metrics including new-code variants, with merge gating
  • Zero-config activation (no YAML, no CI change, no agents) and stacked-PR-aware issue diffing with documented edge cases

Notable limitations

  • Secrets detection, compliance reporting, audit logs, and advanced security features require Team or Enterprise
  • OSS dependency scanning is billed pay-as-you-go per active dependency target on every plan, including Team
  • AI Review is usage-priced per 10K LOC beyond included credits, so cost scales with code volume
  • No third-party certifications (SOC 2, ISO 27001) named anywhere in the documentation
  • Self-managed VCS providers (GitHub Enterprise Server, GitLab self-managed, Bitbucket Data Center) are documented only for Enterprise Server
