Use your own Claude, Gemini, or GPT API keys for AI code review. Pay only for what you use. Your code goes directly to your AI provider — no third-party servers, no vendor lock-in, full control.
For a team of 5 developers: Git AutoReview = $14.99/mo vs CodeRabbit = $120/mo (87% savings)
BYOK (Bring Your Own Key) is a deployment model where you use your own API keys from AI providers like Anthropic (Claude), Google AI (Gemini), or OpenAI (GPT) instead of the tool's bundled AI access. This gives software engineers and development teams full control over costs, privacy, and model selection.
With traditional AI code review tools like CodeRabbit and Qodo, your code is sent to their servers, processed through their AI accounts, and you pay per-user fees regardless of usage. With Git AutoReview's BYOK, your code goes directly from VS Code to your chosen AI provider. You pay for actual API usage, not per-seat licenses.
If you have existing AI contracts, want to control costs, or need to keep code off third-party servers, BYOK is the way to go. Your code goes only to your approved AI providers.
Why use your own API keys instead of a vendor's bundled AI access.
Pay only for actual API usage. No per-user fees. A team of 5 developers saves 87% compared to CodeRabbit ($14.99 vs $120/month).
Your code goes directly to Anthropic (Claude), Google AI (Gemini), or OpenAI (GPT). No third-party servers store your code repositories.
Choose which AI model to use for each review. Run Claude, Gemini, and GPT in parallel. Switch models anytime without vendor lock-in.
Use your existing enterprise AI contracts. Comply with corporate policies. Integrate with your DevOps workflows and CI/CD pipelines.
Install Git AutoReview from the VS Code Marketplace. Add your API keys for Anthropic (Claude), Google AI (Gemini), or OpenAI (GPT) in extension settings. Keys are stored locally — Git AutoReview never sees them.
Connect to GitHub (including GitHub Enterprise), GitLab (including GitLab Self-managed), Bitbucket Cloud, Bitbucket Server, or Bitbucket Data Center. Your Git platform of choice, your credentials.
Choose a pull request to review. Select which AI models to use — Claude, Gemini, GPT, or all three in parallel. Compare suggestions from different AI providers before deciding what to publish.
Your code diff is sent directly to your AI provider using YOUR API key. No Git AutoReview servers in between. Usage is billed to your Anthropic, Google AI, or OpenAI account at their standard rates.
AI hallucinates 29-45% of suggestions. The 2023 PMC study found people accept AI output 96.8% of the time without checking. You review drafts first, filter the noise, publish what makes sense.
