Building AI Code Review: A Conversation with Richie
Products & Services
A platform that connects code repositories, documentation, and team conversations to provide AI agents with full organizational context.
Automated code review tool that uses codebase history and team knowledge to identify bugs and provide context-aware suggestions.
Autonomous CI triage tool that automatically detects and triages failing pull requests.
Meta-Contextual Platform server that integrates Unblocked's context into coding assistants like Claude, Cursor, and VS Code.
Market Position
Unblocked differentiates itself by building a 'context engine' that aggregates non-code metadata (Jira, Slack, Notion) to explain the reasoning behind code, rather than just suggesting syntax like general AI assistants.
