What is LightLayer?
LightLayer is the first voice-first AI code review platform engineered exclusively for developers — transforming static, text-heavy pull request reviews into dynamic, conversational, and deeply contextual engineering dialogues. By combining real-time speech understanding with deep codebase awareness, LightLayer helps engineers review PRs up to 5x faster without compromising rigor. Instead of typing line-by-line feedback, you highlight code, speak naturally — and instantly receive AI-generated insights, explanations, and polished comments — as if a senior engineer were reviewing alongside you, live.
How to Use LightLayer
Getting started takes under a minute. Connect LightLayer to your GitHub account using secure OAuth — no code changes or CI/CD modifications required. Once authorized, launch the web app, select any open pull request, and begin reviewing immediately. Hover over lines, click to highlight, and speak your observations aloud: “Why was this retry logic added?” or “This function looks duplicated — can we refactor?” LightLayer’s AI listens, interprets intent, cross-references your full repository, and responds in real time — surfacing relevant diffs, dependencies, and historical context on demand.
Go further with voice commands like “Draft a comment suggesting unit test coverage here,” or “Show me where this utility is used across the codebase.” As you scroll, LightLayer maintains contextual continuity — auto-linking related files, summarizing change impact, and converting your spoken thoughts into clear, actionable, team-ready feedback — ready for final review before posting to GitHub.
