Codacy vs ThinkReview

Codacy is a cloud platform for engineering teams focused on code quality, security, and AI coding standards. Its AI Reviewer reviews pull requests with fix suggestions and summaries, and can identify false positives automatically. Listed security capabilities include SAST, software composition analysis, secret scanning, infrastructure-as-code scanning, DAST, and container image scanning. Team offers shared coding standards across 49 languages, integrations for GitHub, Bitbucket, GitLab, Jira, and Slack, and capacity for up to 30 developers and 100 private repositories with unlimited lines of code. Developer includes an IDE plugin and integrations for VSCode, JetBrains, and Cursor; the IDE extension comparison also names Windsurf. Developer costs nothing. Team costs $18 a year with yearly billing or $21 a month with monthly billing, billed per developer per month. A 14-day free trial is available without a credit card. Codacy states that it is GDPR compliant and has SOC 2 Type II compliance; its services run on AWS, with data in transit encrypted using TLS.

ThinkReview provides AI code reviews in a browser sidebar on pull and merge request pages. It supports GitHub, GitLab, Azure DevOps, and Bitbucket, including several self-hosted editions. Reviews can suggest code-quality improvements, analyze security, recommend best practices, score quality, and answer follow-up questions. Developers can discuss a change, edit a review comment, and post it themselves; nothing is written to a pull request until they choose to post. Users can define review standards and create agents tailored to a project's technology stack. ThinkReview MCP supports live PR reviews from Cursor, Claude Code, and Copilot, with structured feedback. With Ollama, reviews can use local models without sending patches to the cloud, including on air-gapped machines. The Free plan is for individuals and includes two daily review credits for small PRs up to 1,000 lines of code changes. Lite costs $10 a month and Professional costs $16 a month. Cloud conversation data may be retained for up to 90 days. Trial terms differ between the pricing FAQ and homepage pricing section.
