# DeepSource

> AI-powered code review platform that automates pull request analysis with hybrid static analysis and AI agents to catch bugs, security vulnerabilities, and code quality issues.

DeepSource is an AI Code Review Platform that automates code reviews on every pull request, combining deterministic static analysis rules with an AI review agent. It is designed for teams writing more code with AI assistance, providing high-signal, low-false-positive feedback across security, quality, complexity, and coverage dimensions.

## What It Is

DeepSource sits in the code review category, functioning as an automated reviewer that integrates directly into pull request workflows on GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, and Azure DevOps. The platform uses a hybrid approach: over 5,000 deterministic rules for consistent, rule-based detection, layered with an AI review agent for contextual analysis. The result is inline comments on pull requests, structured PR Report Cards, and merge gates that can block low-quality code from reaching production.

## How the Hybrid Analysis Engine Works

DeepSource's core differentiator is the combination of deterministic static analysis and AI-driven review in a single pass:

- **Inline PR comments** flag bugs, anti-patterns, and security vulnerabilities with specific remediation guidance
- **Autofix™** provides verified, pre-generated patches for most detected issues so developers can apply fixes without leaving their workflow
- **PR Report Card** delivers structured feedback across Security, Reliability, Complexity, Hygiene, and Coverage dimensions, including prioritized guidance for the most impactful fixes
- **Pull request gates** let teams define merge guardrails based on analysis results

## Security and Compliance Coverage

Beyond code quality, DeepSource covers several security and compliance use cases:

- **Secrets Detection** — validated against 165+ providers to prevent API keys and credentials from reaching production
- **OSS Vulnerability Scanning (SCA)** — uses reachability and taint analysis to surface dependency vulnerabilities that actually affect the running code
- **Infrastructure-as-Code Review** — catches security misconfigurations in Terraform and CloudFormation
- **License Compliance** — flags copyleft and restrictive OSS licenses before they create legal risk
- **Compliance Reporting** — maps findings to OWASP Top 10 and SANS Top 25 for audit readiness

## Benchmark Position

DeepSource publishes benchmark results on the OpenSSF CVE Benchmark, which consists of over 200 real-life security vulnerabilities in JavaScript and TypeScript validated and fixed in open-source projects. According to DeepSource's own benchmark page, the platform claims an F1 score of 84.51% on this benchmark, which it presents as the highest among listed tools. F1 score is the harmonic mean of precision and recall, penalizing both missed vulnerabilities and false positives.

## Update: DeepSource MCP Server

The homepage highlights a recent addition: the DeepSource MCP Server, announced via the company blog. This enables review insights and structured PR feedback to be fed directly into AI coding agents or any MCP-compatible application, extending DeepSource's analysis beyond the pull request UI into agentic development workflows. The platform also exposes a full GraphQL API and real-time webhook events for custom integrations.

## Platform and Deployment

DeepSource operates as a cloud-hosted SaaS accessible via web browser, with integrations triggered through version control provider webhooks. It supports full codebase scanning beyond pull requests, allowing teams to track code health and security hotspots across their entire existing codebase over time. The platform is SOC 2 Type II compliant and GDPR compliant, and is positioned for both startups and enterprise teams.
