Prioritized inbox
Review requests, blocked work, merge-ready changes, open threads, and work waiting on others — ordered around your next move.
Every pull request.
One clear next move.
Triage, understand, and review changes from one focused native workspace.
Homebrew
$ brew install --cask volnei/tap/reviewly
Less hunting. Less waiting. Better reviews.
One native place to triage, understand, and finish every pull request.
The review, in focus.
Know what needs you.
Review requests, failing checks, conflicts, and unresolved threads — ordered around your next decision.
See the change. Make the call. Move on.
Everything in Reviewly.
From the first signal to the final decision — including private AI, native tools, Labs, and team coordination.
Review flow
Everything from the first signal to the final decision.
Pull request overview
See the change map, checks, unresolved context, activity, and a suggested reading order before opening the diff.
Full diff workspace
Switch between unified and split views, expand context, hide whitespace-only changes, wrap lines, and track viewed files.
Persistent review drafts
Inline comments survive navigation and restarts until you submit a comment, approval, or request for changes.
Conversations
Read, reply to, and resolve threads without losing the file context. Reactions and labels stay close to the decision.
Mentions and health
Catch direct mentions, failed checks, conflicts, blocked merges, and changes that are becoming stale.
Search and saved views
Filter large accounts quickly and keep the views you return to instead of rebuilding the same query.
History and shortcuts
Move through reviews from the keyboard, open the shortcut sheet, and revisit recent actions when context changes.
AI, your way
Useful context without sending your code to a mandatory Reviewly AI service.
Change briefing
Turn a pull request into coherent areas, intent, and risk before reading every line.
Guided review
Walk through files and lines in an order that follows the change instead of the alphabet.
Ask AI
Keep a focused conversation attached to the pull request you are trying to understand.
Provider choice
Use Claude CLI, Codex CLI, Gemini CLI, or your own OpenAI-compatible endpoint.
Project instructions
Apply the repository’s conventions to briefings, guided reviews, and conversations.
Local clone context
Let local tools inspect the repository already on your machine; Reviewly does not need to upload it.
Native workspace
Fast, private, and present even when the browser is not.
Local-first cache
A local SQLite cache keeps navigation fast and preserves the state you have already built up.
Secure credentials
GitHub credentials stay in Keychain, Credential Manager, or Secret Service — never in a plain settings file.
Native notifications
Get review alerts plus dock and tray counts without keeping a web tab open.
Background sync
Watched repositories reconcile quietly so the inbox reflects what changed while you were away.
Signed releases
Install on macOS, Windows, or Linux, update automatically, or use the Homebrew cask.
GitHub Enterprise
Connect GitHub Enterprise Server with its own host and authentication flow.
Local repositories
Connect the clones on your machine and move between remote review context and local code.
Private by design
No Reviewly telemetry and no hosted Reviewly AI backend in the individual app.
Labs
Deeper tools for the work around a pull request.
Living Architecture
Inspect local Turbo workspaces for package boundaries, dependency cycles, phantom dependencies, version drift, and blast radius.
Spec Lens
Work with OpenSpec changes, draft proposals with AI, and create an isolated worktree and branch without touching your checkout.
Merge Lab
Simulate up to eight pull requests together, find a merge order, inspect blast radius, and optionally prove it in a temporary local worktree.
Teams
Shared coordination when the review queue belongs to everyone.
Shared review queue
Give the organization one ordered view of every pull request that needs the team.
Ownership and assignment
Make the current owner and next action visible instead of coordinating in side conversations.
Priority and SLA
Set urgency and review expectations so important changes do not disappear into chronological order.
Fastlane rules
Let the team define which small, safe changes can leave the queue early — with protected paths and size limits.
GitHub App sync
Keep organization repositories current through a revocable GitHub App installation and webhooks.
GitLab
Bring GitLab merge requests, discussions, and approvals into the same shared review workflow.
Slack
Send assignments and reminders to Slack and put review actions where the team is already talking.
Centralized billing
Manage organization membership and per-seat billing from one Teams account.
Metadata-only backend
The Teams service coordinates review metadata; source code and diffs stay with your Git provider and app.
Reviews move together.
No review disappears into another tab. No teammate wonders who owns it.

Teams scale.
Everything you need to review alone stays free. Upgrade when the queue belongs to the whole team.

Good to know.
Is Reviewly really free?
Yes. The complete individual app is open source and free forever. Teams is the paid coordination layer for organizations.
Does it work with GitHub Enterprise Server?
Yes. Connect your company hostname using GitHub CLI or a personal access token. Reviewly derives the Enterprise REST and GraphQL endpoints automatically.
Does Reviewly Teams work with GitLab?
Yes. Connect GitLab.com to bring merge requests, discussions, and approvals into your organization’s shared review queue.
What does the Slack integration do?
Reviewly Teams sends assignments and reminders to your Slack workspace, with review actions available where the team is already talking.
Does Reviewly send my code to its own AI service?
No. Hobby mode has no Reviewly AI backend. You choose a local CLI or an OpenAI-compatible endpoint and trigger every action yourself.
Where is my GitHub token stored?
In your operating system keychain: Keychain on macOS, Credential Manager on Windows, and Secret Service on Linux.
