Code reviews are essential but often rely on cloud-based tools. A local-first AI reviewer ensures privacy and speed.

Create a tool that runs AI-powered code review locally, integrating with Git workflows.

Developers and teams will pay for privacy and efficiency.

The MVP could be a CLI tool that reviews code locally.

The biggest risk is limited AI capabilities compared to cloud-based solutions.
