Built by one engineer who was tired of bugs slipping through

Hi, I'm Pankaj. I'm a software engineer, and I built MicroReview by myself.

On every team I've worked with, I kept watching the same thing happen: solid engineers shipping avoidable bugs, and the occasional secret committed straight into the repo. Not because anyone was careless — but because code review is the first thing that gets rushed when a deadline is close. The reviewer skims the easy files, rubber-stamps the big diff, and the off-by-one or the hardcoded key slips through.

And it's only getting harder. With AI coding assistants, developers are shipping more code and opening more pull requests than ever — often faster than any lead can realistically review in depth. When a stack of PRs is piling up, it's human to skim, and that's exactly when a subtle logic bug or a committed secret slips through. The volume has outgrown the time anyone has to review it carefully.

I wanted a reviewer that never gets tired, never skips the boring files, and gives you one honest number: how risky is this pull request? Low score, merge it. High score, take a careful look. Critical issue, block the merge. So I built it.

Think of it as an extra pair of eyes for your lead and your whole team — a second review on every single pull request that never gets rushed, no matter how many land that day. It doesn't replace your reviewers; it makes sure nothing reaches them un-checked.

MicroReview is independent and bootstrapped. There's no big company behind it — just me, and the teams who choose to use it early. I read every support email myself, I ship the features people actually ask for, and the roadmap is shaped by real feedback, not a sales quota.

If you're going to trust a tool with access to your source code, you should know who built it and what they believe. I believe your code is yours: MicroReview only ever reads the changed lines, never trains on your code, and is honest about what it can and can't do. You can read exactly how I handle your data on the security page.

If that resonates, I'd love for you to try it — and tell me what's missing.
