Starter covers 1 active developer; self-hosted sizing guidance is Docker Compose up to 100 developers and Kubernetes for 100+ developers.
A good fit if
- You want review informed by a code graph and a self-updating knowledge base
- You want reviews that write and run tests and browser flows, with logs and screenshots attached (T-Rex, in beta)
- You want per-directory configuration with clear precedence rules
Consider alternatives if
- Your code is on Azure DevOps
- You need dependency, IaC, container or dedicated secrets scanning
- You want flat per-seat costs, since reviews draw on credits with overage billed per credit
