Kodus reviews pull requests with AI, posting review comments and code suggestions in supported Git-hosting workflows. It suits independent developers and teams that want to shape review behavior with custom rules, severity filters, and plugins, while keeping a choice between hosted and self-hosted deployment on selected plans. Reviews can run automatically or on demand with @kody start-review. Linked business requirements and work items can also be checked during review, which makes Kodus relevant to teams that want reviews to reflect more than code changes alone.

Pricing separates a free Community plan from Teams at $10 per user per month, billed monthly. Community allows unlimited PRs using the customer’s own API key, up to 10 Kody Rules, and up to 3 active plugins; it includes Discord community support. Teams is hosted by Kodus and adds unlimited rules and active plugins, engineering metrics and a cockpit, plus email support alongside Discord community support. The published plans also show a 14-day trial, with no credit card required. Enterprise includes hosted or self-hosted deployment, SSO, RBAC and audit logs, SOC 2, and dedicated support. This tier structure gives budget-conscious teams a way to start without a subscription, then pay for broader configuration and metrics as needs grow.

The integration list covers GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, and Azure DevOps for code hosting, plus Jira, Linear, and Notion. Kodus can use customer-provided model API keys, import or detect rule files from other coding tools, and supports plugins including MCP plugins. Those options make it a fit for teams that value control over deployment, model credentials, or review policy. The trade-off is that Community has clear rule and plugin caps, while Teams is hosted-only; organizations needing self-hosting alongside SSO and audit logs would need to assess Enterprise. Teams wanting a hosted review workflow with configurable checks and metrics should consider Kodus; those seeking self-hosting on its Teams tier or unlimited Community customization should look elsewhere.
