Macroscope review
A GitHub-focused reviewer with deep analysis and usage-based pricing.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Macroscope is an AI code review platform for engineering teams working with GitHub. It automatically reviews pull requests, analyzes codebase relationships through AST-based representations and reference graphs, and identifies bugs, security issues, and regressions. It also suggests fixes and generates pull-request summaries. The free plan and usage-based model make it relevant to teams that want to align cost with review activity rather than pay by seat.
Pricing is divided by review mode and usage type. Budget Code Review costs $0.025 per KB of diff reviewed and provides automated pull-request review. Balanced Code Review costs $0.05 per KB and adds the default detection mode, while Precise Code Review costs $0.06 per KB and Ultra Code Review costs $0.2 per KB; each includes automated pull-request review. Status costs $0.05 per commit for commit summaries, sprint reports and weekly digests, and project classification. Agent costs $0.01 per credit and can write code and ship pull requests through Slack, GitHub, and the API. Enterprise offers discounted pricing for longer commitments, priority support, and custom MSA and DPA agreements.
The standout capability is the combination of codebase analysis, reference graphs, custom markdown-defined checks, and merge-gating GitHub Check Run Agents. Spend caps and repository or file exclusions provide controls for managing usage, while integrations span Slack, Jira, Linear, Sentry, PostHog, LaunchDarkly, Amplitude, BigQuery, Google Cloud Logging, and MCP. Macroscope suits teams that want GitHub-native review automation with configurable analysis and connected workflows. Teams needing a non-GitHub host or a deployment model other than cloud should choose an alternative.
