For LiveAPI - Each Day In Itself is a Little Life

Hello, I'm Shrijith. I'm building git-lrc, an AI code reviewer that runs on every commit. It is free, unlimited, and source-available on Github. Star Us to help devs discover the project. Do give it a try and share your feedback for improving the product.

We are building - as a Swagger Alternative - with automation maximized.

As an entry or starting point - we are relentlessly focused on simplifying 1 problem:

We help you connect your code repositories at scale, to our tool, and let our tool generate excellent, interactive documents out of them.

The value of a 100% documented API code infrastructure is of many types:

  1. Easy browsing of APIs across the org
  2. Search for keywords to find relevant APIs
  3. Organized and beautiful docs enhancing dev engagement
  4. Code generation for endpoints
  5. Automatically generated SDKs for your APIs
  6. Interactive widgets to play around with APIs
  7. Automatically generated API descriptions

So - with LiveAPI, documenting APIs at scale not only becomes possible - but is possible with ease.

Our platform already works at a basic level with:

  1. Github
  2. Gitlab (both .com and self-hosted variants)
  3. BitBucket

Throughout the weekend and today - our energetic team accomplished lots of advances:

  1. LiveAPI Runner: Reduce your code exposure to LLMs. We allow enterprises to run language and framework detection - right within their infra, select the bare minimum files necessary for generating APIs, package them up and send them to our LLM layer
  2. Subscription flow: We have priced LiveAPI at 21 USD per month as of now, and we've built up a nice subscription flow for startups and individuals to take advantage of. The team has tested USD and INR payments end to end.
  3. BitBucket integration: While we already have Github/Gitlab integrations earlier, we noticed that many prospects are quite integrated into the Atlassian ecosystem. So we invested into a BitBucket integration and got it (mostly) working.
  4. Docs for Public Repos: For helping people quickly onboard, without requiring a login - we thought it'd be a good idea to allow generating docs for public repositories. So we implemented a simple UI where you can paste in the URL of a public git repo, and get docs generated within a few minutes.
  5. Big improvements in landing page: We have made the landing page more helpful, we give more relevant information now, for example how can act as a good Swagger Alternative.

On top of these technical advances, I had two long-ish yet productive meetings - one with a product manager from a company with considerable IT footprint, and another tech founder who also has extensive experience in executing tech projects on a service basis. Both the meetings gave me new ideas, directions, and points to ponder further about to make the best automated API documentation generator for engineering orgs.

Why

  • 🤖 AI agents silently break things. Code removed. Logic changed. Edge cases gone. You won't notice until production.
  • 🔍 Catch it before it ships. AI-powered inline comments show you exactly what changed and what looks wrong.
  • 🔁 Build a habit, ship better code. Regular review → fewer bugs → more robust code → better results in your team.
  • 🔗 Why git? Git is universal. Every editor, every IDE, every AI…
