The "zero data retention" positioning is brilliant. Most AI code review tools send your entire codebase to third-party APIs with vague privacy policies. For founders who code, that's a non-starter. Surmado removes the compliance anxiety entirely. Two things stand out: 1. Per-PR pricing vs per-seat — genuinely better economics for small teams. A 5-person team doing 20 PRs/week pays for 20 reviews, not 5 seats x $20/month each. 2. Human reviewer brief — directing human attention to the highest-signal parts of a PR is more valuable than flooding them with AI-generated noise. One question: what languages and frameworks does Surmado support today? And how do you handle reviews for PRs that touch multiple languages (e.g., a full-stack change with React + Python + Terraform)? Also curious if you've considered a "graduated review" mode — AI catches the obvious stuff, and only escalates to human review when confidence is low or the change touches critical paths? Clean product. The 10-second install Scoobert mentioned below is a great signal too.

Surmado Code Review is an automated, easy to use review tool specifically designed for vibe coders and small teams. The tool offers standardized review services for all Pull Request (PR) evaluations, with the important characteristic being zero data retention. Try it free. No credit card required. It operates by automatically reviewing each PR before your teammates open it in order to identify code bugs and improve code quality. While the service is particularly targeted towards small developer teams and individual developers, it also provides an invaluable resource for founders who code. Surmado Code Review uses AI to analyze the developers code when a PR is pushed, ensuring compliance with pre-set standards. It identifies areas for improvement and provides actionable feedback, making it easier for developers to repeat good practices and fix potential issues. Unlike many other platforms, Surmado Code Review does not store any of the inspected code during or after the review process. The tool can also handle any repository count within a GitHub account. An added advantage is its ability to direct human reviewers to focus on specific areas that need attention, using a human reviewer brief that summarizes changes and points of interest. Surmado's pricing is set on PR review basis as opposed to per-seat pricing which offers significant saving for teams. The tool also checks for personally identifiable information (PII) in logs as part of every review.
