>log in to commentHi DevHunt, I'm Muhammet, the maker of UstaWork. I built it after noticing that whenever one AI agent both wrote and checked its own work, it approved itself. So UstaWork splits the job: one agent builds the change on a branch, and a separate agent on a different AI provider reviews it, read-only and without seeing the first agent's reasoning. If the reviewer asks for changes, the work goes back with its findings. Nothing merges until you approve it. You can start from a plain description ("add CSV export to the reports page") and let Usta set up the project and plan the work, or start from a workflow blueprint like feature delivery or security review. If you want to try it on a real task, code LAUNCH25 gives you 100 Work Units and $25 of Managed AI credit. I'd really like to hear where the review loop helps and where it gets in the way. I'm around in the comments all day.
UstaWork automates project planning, execution and review with specialist AI agents, requiring human approval before merging.

- Developers and teams needing AI-assisted code, research, data or docs workflows with gated approvals.
- pricing
- freemium
Key features
- AI Planning Agent — Creates work items, milestones, acceptance criteria and dependencies from a high-level idea.
- Specialist Work Agents — Dedicated AI roles (engineer, reviewer, security, docs) execute tasks in isolated workspaces.
- Independent Review Gates — Code, security and custom reviewers provide verdicts before any merge occurs.
- Live Previews — Runs each candidate in a short-lived environment (Docker/Compose) for visual approval.
- Customizable Workflows — Draw pipelines with agents, human steps, decisions, parallelism and wait actions.
- Integrations & Recurring Work — Connects to GitHub, Slack/Telegram, Supabase and supports scheduled jobs.
Use cases
- Automated feature development with AI-engineered code and gated code review.
- Generating and updating documentation alongside code changes.
- Running periodic dependency updates or data reports on a schedule.
- Research or data-analysis tasks executed by AI agents with human validation.

- UstaWork vs n8n: n8n offers generic workflow automation but lacks AI-driven specialist agents and gated code review.
- UstaWork vs Cline: Cline provides an autonomous coding agent inside an IDE, without the full project planning and review gates of UstaWork.
- UstaWork vs Cursor: Cursor is an AI-enhanced code editor, focusing on assistance rather than end-to-end autonomous execution and approval.
- UstaWork vs Mastra: Mastra is a TypeScript framework for building AI agents, whereas UstaWork is a hosted platform with built-in agents and governance.
UstaWork FAQ
How does UstaWork ensure code changes are safe before merging?+
Each change is reviewed by a separate Code Reviewer and Security Reviewer AI, which must give a Pass verdict before the merge gate opens.
Can I use my own LLM provider keys?+
Yes, you can bring your own OpenAI, Anthropic or Google keys; otherwise you can use Managed AI credit.
What happens if a gate is not met?+
The step is paused; you receive a preview and can provide feedback or make changes before the workflow continues.
Does UstaWork support recurring or scheduled tasks?+
Recurring work is available on Pro and Team plans, allowing daily, weekly, monthly or cron-based jobs.
Which version control systems are supported?+
UstaWork integrates with GitHub and its own built-in Git implementation for repository access and pull-request handling.
