No.

Yes; we most definitely have teams from Fortune 500s running mission critical code through out platform. We will be releasing a case study from one in the next quarter. I would say…

Yes; unfortunately QA was used here, when QA doesn't capture what we do. Probably my fault in the interview.

Thanks much -- this is a company, product, and project where we have the liberty and passion to say that quality is what we care the most about. Also: I'm lame, I went with "We're …

Definitely a concern within the business -- we're trying to solve this through a combination of tooling and reassignment of reviewers to the same projects. Within tooling, we use a…

Yes; one of the reasons I created the company was to give flexibility to people I've seen drop out of the industry for one reason or another (be it having kids, illness, etc). It's…

We both internally and have customer rate reviews -- we also establish corpus details with customers during the onboarding process. On the whole, we believe it's valuable to stay w…

Ah! Bot in this case is the label applied to any application within Github.

Thanks for the insight. We'll definitely be clearing up the pricing packages.

We're trying out a few different models right now. Our goal is to make sure that developers are getting great pay and want to work with us!

We would love to offer one review a month - unfortunately, because there are humans on the other side of the review, it's harder to do this than for a straight SaaS operation. We'l…

We're still exploring the landscape on this. At the core, we're hiring reviewers in jurisdictions that we have presence for (currently North America), and they are signing a 3 way …

I think that's a natural place where our tooling will evolve to - a lot of things that aren't caught in an automated way, after being trained with real review, will. There's no rep…
