Sourcery ranks fifth as the best low-cost reviewer for teams on GitHub or GitLab. Pro costs $12 per developer per month billed annually, or $15 monthly, and adds AI reviews on private repositories, higher review limits and Jira integration on top of the free Open Source plan. Every plan includes PR summaries and diagrams, one-click fixes, custom review rules, auto-approval for low-risk PRs and security checks on every pull request. Team at $24 adds codebase security with nightly scans of 50 repositories, an issues dashboard and team analytics. Sourcery reviews merge requests on GitLab.com and self-managed GitLab on every plan, while GitHub Enterprise Server and self-hosting sit on Enterprise. It says it keeps no copy of your code after a review and does not train models on it. The limits are platform reach, with no Bitbucket or Azure DevOps listed, and a narrower feature set than CodeRabbit or Qodo.
