Lots of extra words in this blog post but the direction is right: companies prefer to build their own AI code review solutions than use off the shelf products. I’m the founder of a…

congrats Greg, Merrill, and the rest of the folks at Graphite! - Hunter @ Ellipsis

Bingo - it’s colloquially

Yes. My business is in the code review space, synthetic data is very helpful for evals

LLM's get relatively better at read-heavy operations (ex: code review) than write-heavy operations (ex: code generation) as codebases become less idiomatic. I'm a cofounder at www.…

100ms is crazy fast. Approx what's the split b/t the embeddings calls and the graph traversal work (the library stuff)?

Yes. Learning to "program" has never been easier, but nitty gritty stuff like networks and routing is still much more technical than the avg SWE

HA! Your LLM agents/prompts nailed a hilarious tone. For https://ellipsis.dev > This website looks like it was designed by someone who just discovered the concept of "AI" and decid…

Nice, I imagine you're using your own product? I got "LAUNCH SALE $100 OFF" 1. How do you provide consistent banners to an individual? or a device? 2. Are you aware of anyone doing…

Cool, probably not relevant info for modern devs because of all the hosted git providers, but interesting nonetheless. Got any thoughts on how LLM powered code generation products …

Pricing is on the landing page. $20/seat per month

Good catch. The team could add this rule to their Ellipsis config file to make sure that it's always flagged: "Never use magic numbers. Always store the number in a variable and us…

Unfortunately not. We’re early - all our data is qualitative. But we know we need hard numbers, so we’re working on it. We don’t want to sell a novelty, the product needs to actual…

No way, anyone can make silly mistakes. Ellipsis is a 2nd pair of eyes to catch stuff like that

The product works on draft PR's too, but not on local. Sometimes reviewers rope in Ellipsis by asking questions (we also support natural language Q&A about a PR) or by having a des…

As it stands today, Ellipsis isn't sold as an AI software engineer. One of our largest learnings is that state of the art LLM's aren't good enough to write code autonomously, but t…

Automated code reviews are a step in the software development lifecycle, not a replacement for human reviewers. Ellipsis can't commit code without your permission and approval, so …

All those tools do code review, so you'll have to try them out for yourself to see which is the most helpful. But when it comes to writing code for you, not all those tools actuall…

Hmm, that searches issues, which isn't the best way to see Ellipsis' work. Example of PR review: https://github.com/getzep/zep-js/pull/67#discussion_r1594781... Example of issue-to…

Ellipsis increases the quality of code a developer brings to their teammates, meaning fewer PR comments, meaning the team ships faster. It's not a replacement for human review. It'…

Hmm... probably, send me an email.

Nearly all languages are supported, but some perform better than others. JS/TS, Python, Java, C++, Ruby are highly supported.

It's most helpful when a GitHub/Linear issue is linked because the "why" is extracted, and also for larger PR's

We offer Ellipsis to large open source projects for free. Email us team@ellipsis.dev I was referencing the recent xz backdoor hack.
