Post Description

Show HN: Pyor - A better alternative to Github for reviewing PRs

since the introduction of AI, the bottleneck for shipping code shifted from producing code to reviewing it, and the PR reviewing experience on Github is lackluster, leaving a lot to be desired.

my team now ships too much code and it sits in review for too long, review AI code is not easy and we need a better tool to review code, especially on large PRs.

So I built Pyor, a website and a performant desktop app to review code at least 3x faster compared to Github (from experience)

As a web dev, I compiled all of my painpoints into this project, what would make a review easy (and even fun) for me, I integrated tools to group noise from actual important bits to focus on reviewing, that speeds up reviewing time immensely, especially on migration PRs where most is mechanical name changes.

Try it out at https://www.pyor.review and let me know what you think!
