AI-powered code review tool with no seat fees and per-credit pricing.
HeyDeer at a glance
HeyDeer is an AI tool that reviews GitHub pull requests for developers and engineering teams, using credit-based pricing instead of per-seat charges.
Good for
- Teams that want an AI reviewer to check pull requests regardless of whether the code was written by a person or a coding agent like Codex, Claude Code, or Cursor
- Workspaces with many developers or repositories, since the plan is shared by the whole workspace with no per-seat fees
- Open source projects, which can be reviewed for free up to a fair-use limit
Pricing
Free: $0/mo, 300 credits. Starter: $9/mo, 2,500 credits. Pro: $39/mo, 12,000 credits. Add-on credits from $5 ($10 per 1,000).
Questions people ask
How much does HeyDeer cost?
The Free plan is $0 a month with 1,000 credits the first month and 300 after that. Starter is $9 a month and Pro is $39 a month, and there are no seat fees so adding developers doesn't change the price.
How is HeyDeer different from the reviewer built into my coding agent?
Tools like Claude Code Review, Codex, Copilot, and Cursor Bugbot come with a coding agent, while HeyDeer is independent and reviews every pull request the same way regardless of who or what wrote the code.
How does HeyDeer keep false positives down?
A different model checks each potential issue against the code before it is posted, and only findings that hold up are shown. You can also set feedback scope to Concise, Balanced, or Detailed per workspace or repository.
Can HeyDeer follow our team's own coding standards?
Yes, HeyDeer reads REVIEW.md and AGENTS.md files in your repository, runs checks saved in .agents/checks/, and cites the line behind each comment it posts.
Will my whole team need a paid seat?
No. All members and repositories in one workspace share the same plan and credit balance, and there are no seat fees.
