PullApprove

PullApprove is a human code review framework designed to manage and enforce code approval policies, particularly for large and complex codebases. It serves as an advanced alternative to GitHub's CODEOWNERS, allowing teams to define granular review requirements using a `CODEREVIEW.toml` file. This configuration-as-code approach ensures review policies are predictable, version-controlled, and auditable. The product is ideal for development teams, from small independent groups to large enterprises and public sector organizations, who need robust control over their code review process. It helps ensure that critical changes receive the necessary human sign-off, especially in environments with high security sensitivity or complex team structures. By integrating directly with GitHub, PullApprove simplifies the 'last mile' of code review, making the human approval process smooth and efficient. PullApprove is not an AI code reviewer or an AI-powered assigner; instead, it focuses on providing the framework for human oversight after automated checks. It has been used in production for over 10 years, demonstrating its reliability and scalability for managing approvals across numerous repositories and thousands of users, including in monorepo environments.
