Terms & Conditions
Last updated: 30 May 2026
DevReview is a code-review tool operated by Andre Sha (ABN 53 858 093 095), a sole trader based in Victoria, Australia ("DevReview", "we", "us"). These terms govern your use of the website and service. By using DevReview — anonymously or signed in — you agree to them. If you don't agree, don't use the service.
The short version
- The review is generated by an AI model. It can be wrong, miss problems, or invent issues. Verify everything yourself — it is not professional, security, or legal advice.
- Only submit code you have the right to submit, and never paste secrets, credentials, or other people's personal data.
- You keep all rights to the code you submit. We claim no ownership and don't use it to train anything.
- Paid plans bill through Stripe on a recurring basis until you cancel. You can cancel anytime; access runs to the end of the paid period.
- The service is provided "as is", with no uptime or accuracy guarantee — but nothing here removes rights you have under the Australian Consumer Law.
- Don't abuse the service: no circumventing quotas, scraping, reselling, or using it for anything unlawful.
Who can use DevReview
You must be able to form a binding contract to use DevReview. If you create an account or subscribe to a paid plan, you confirm you are at least 18 years old. If you use DevReview on behalf of an organisation, you confirm you are authorised to bind that organisation to these terms.
What the service does — and what it doesn't
You paste a code snippet or point DevReview at a GitHub pull request, and it returns an AI-generated review highlighting possible security, performance, and style issues. That output is informational only. It is produced by a third-party language model and:
- may be inaccurate, incomplete, or out of date;
- may miss real defects or vulnerabilities, or flag issues that don't exist;
- is not a substitute for professional code audit, security testing, or legal, financial, or other professional advice.
You are responsible for independently reviewing and testing any code before relying on it. Do not treat a DevReview result as the sole basis for shipping, securing, or relying on code.
Your content and your responsibilities
"Your content" means the code, diffs, pull-request references, and tokens you submit. When you submit it, you confirm that:
- you own it or have the right to submit it and to have it processed as described in our Privacy Policy;
- submitting it does not breach any employer policy, licence, confidentiality obligation, or law;
- it contains no secrets, API keys, passwords, or personal information about other people that you are not authorised to share;
- you understand it will be sent to Anthropic to generate the review, and (for pull requests) that the PR reference and any token you supply will be sent to GitHub.
You keep all intellectual property rights in your content. You grant us only the limited licence needed to receive, process, and transmit it to the model providers in order to produce your review for that request. We do not sell your content, and we do not use it to train any model. We do not store the code or the review text — see the Privacy Policy for exactly what is and isn't kept.
Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- circumvent, disable, or interfere with rate limits, quotas, or usage metering;
- resell, sublicense, or commercially redistribute the service or its output without our written permission;
- use automated means to scrape the service, or use it to build a competing product or dataset;
- submit content that is unlawful, infringing, malicious (e.g. malware), or that you are not authorised to share;
- attempt to gain unauthorised access to the service, other users' accounts, or our infrastructure, or otherwise probe, overload, or disrupt it.
We may apply rate limits and quotas, and may suspend or restrict access if we reasonably believe you have breached these terms.
Accounts
Anonymous use needs no account. To subscribe to a paid plan you sign in with Google or GitHub. You are responsible for activity under your account and for keeping your provider login secure. Provide accurate information, use one account per person, and tell us promptly if you suspect unauthorised use. You can delete your account at any time from the Account page.
Plans, fees, and billing
DevReview offers a free tier with usage quotas and paid plans (Lite and Pro). Current features, quotas, and prices are shown on the pricing page and form part of these terms. By subscribing you authorise us, through our payment processor Stripe, to charge the applicable fee on a recurring basis (e.g. monthly) until you cancel.
- Subscriptions renew automatically at the start of each billing period unless cancelled beforehand.
- Payments are processed by Stripe. We do not see or store your full card details.
- Prices are in the currency shown at checkout and are exclusive of any applicable taxes unless stated otherwise. You are responsible for any taxes that apply to you.
- We may change plans, features, quotas, or prices. We will give reasonable notice of price changes affecting your current subscription, and changes take effect from your next billing period.
Cancellation and refunds
You can cancel a paid plan at any time from the Account page. Cancellation stops future renewals; your plan stays active until the end of the period you've already paid for, and we don't pro-rate or refund part-used periods for change of mind.
This does not limit your rights under the Australian Consumer Law — see below. If a paid plan fails to meet a consumer guarantee, you may be entitled to a remedy regardless of this policy.
Availability
DevReview is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. We don't guarantee that it will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or that reviews will be accurate or available at any given time. We may modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the service, including features and plans, at any time. Because reviews depend on third-party providers (Anthropic, GitHub), outages or changes on their side may affect the service.
Third-party services
DevReview relies on third parties — including Anthropic (model), GitHub and Google (sign-in / diffs), Stripe (payments), and Neon, Upstash, and Vercel (infrastructure). Your use of those services through DevReview is also governed by their own terms and privacy policies. We are not responsible for the acts, omissions, or availability of third-party providers.
Australian Consumer Law
Our services come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law (ACL). Nothing in these terms excludes, restricts, or modifies any guarantee, right, or remedy you have under the ACL or any other law that cannot lawfully be excluded.
Where we are permitted to limit our liability for breach of a non-excludable guarantee, our liability is limited, at our option, to resupplying the relevant service or paying the cost of having it resupplied.
Limitation of liability
Subject to the Australian Consumer Law section above, and to the maximum extent permitted by law:
- we are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential loss, or for loss of profits, data, goodwill, or business, arising from your use of DevReview;
- we are not liable for any loss arising from your reliance on a review — including defects or vulnerabilities a review fails to identify, or issues it wrongly reports;
- our total aggregate liability arising out of or in connection with the service is limited to the greater of (a) the total fees you paid us in the 12 months before the event giving rise to the claim, or (b) AUD $100.
Indemnity
To the extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify us against claims, losses, and costs arising from your breach of these terms, your misuse of the service, or your submission of content you weren't authorised to submit (including any breach of a third party's intellectual property, confidentiality, or privacy rights).
Suspension and termination
You can stop using DevReview at any time and delete your account. We may suspend or terminate your access if you breach these terms, misuse the service, or if we're required to by law. On termination, the sections that by their nature should survive — including content rights, disclaimers, liability limits, and indemnity — continue to apply.
If you can't delete your account through the Account page — for example because of an outage at Stripe or our database — please contact us using the details below and we will action the deletion (including cancelling any active paid subscription) manually, as soon as reasonably practicable.
Privacy
Our handling of what you submit and any account data is described in our Privacy Policy, which forms part of these terms.
Changes to these terms
We may update these terms from time to time. When we do, we'll change the "last updated" date above, and for material changes we'll take reasonable steps to let signed-in users know. Continuing to use DevReview after a change means you accept the updated terms.
Governing law and contact
These terms are governed by the laws of Victoria, Australia, and you submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of its courts. Questions about these terms can be directed to andre@kohastudio.dev.
