Sweep is an AI-powered junior dev that transforms bug reports and feature requests into code changes. Developers can describe a bug in English, such as “the payment link on my website is broken” and Sweep generates code to fix it.
Hey ProductHunt! 👋
This is William, Lucas, and Kevin, and we’re building Sweep. Sweep is an AI-powered junior developer that solves small features, bugs, and missing documentation by writing code. Sweep formats this as a GitHub pull request, allowing developers to review and validate the code before pushing it to their codebase.
Software engineers spend over 25% of their time on fixing tech debt. As developers, we wanted AI to handle these mundane tasks rather than doing it ourselves. Sweep allows our customers to review the written and tested code, increasing their productivity 3x.
Sweep:
🚀 Turns issues directly into pull requests (without an IDE)
👀 Addresses developer replies & comments
🔧 Fixes the code based on failing tests in GitHub Actions
We provide all of our users with 5 GPT4 PRs/month, and 60 GPT4 PRs/month for Sweep Pro users.
We love hearing feedback (and bugs) here: https://discord.com/invite/sweep-ai. To contribute to Sweep, check out and star our repository https://github.com/sweepai/sweep!
Please feel free to try out Sweep and ask questions! We’ll be here all day 😀.
@william_zeng1 I am an early user and Sweep has helped me 10x my productivity. Thank you for making this and I highly recommend everyone to give this a try.
Hi @william_zeng1, congratulations on the launch! 🚀
The product is very interesting for me. There are several questions:
1) Is the change in the code automatically covered by the test?
2) If there are tests in the project, will they be automatically adjusted for the change?
@ashimanski Hey Artyom! We don’t do this automatically, we currently rely on the developer for validation. You can ask Sweep to look at the tests and fix/add more of them!
Hi ,
This is a really awesome. Being in the marketing team, sometimes its hard for us to get access to engineering resources from the tech team and often gets delayed on our own work. This can be a real game changer on this front.
I've been using Sweep for a few months and its scary that with most tasks it gets everything right. Every time I try it and I see a complete PR it blows me away. The rate of improvement is also crazy, I tried to have sweep do something tricky few months ago and it failed, but then a few days ago I tried that same task again and it got it perfect! Definitely recommend people to give it a try.
Hi @william_zeng1 congrats on launching such a cool product. I hope you have a successful launch.
Do you want to host a live demo for your users today? We are launching our live-streaming SDK product on the 18th of July and giving it free to fellow makers before the launch.
Let me know if you want to try it out. Happy to set it up.
Cheers!!
Hi William, Lucas, and Kevin,
Congratulations on the launch of Sweep! As a developer, I can see the massive potential of Sweep to streamline the development process. It's amazing how AI is being leveraged to automate tasks that are typically time-consuming.
Here are a few points and suggestions for consideration if you dont mind:
Sweep Learning Curve: I'm curious to understand how Sweep 'learns' to improve itself. Given that it's AI-powered, does it continuously learn from its interactions with developers and the code it generates to improve its performance over time?
Integration with Other Tools: Besides GitHub, are you planning on integrating Sweep with other development tools? Integration with project management tools like Jira or Slack for communication can be beneficial for better synchronization and workflow.
Customization and Flexibility: How flexible is Sweep when it comes to working with different coding languages or frameworks? The more adaptable it is, the more it will be beneficial to a broader audience of developers.
Security: Writing code directly implies Sweep has access to the codebase. Could you elaborate more on the security measures you have in place to protect users' code?
I'm also launching my startup ezML on producthunt soon (https://www.producthunt.com/prod...) and we focus on computer vision integration for apps. Also simplifying tasks for devs. Please feel free to follow and press notify and reach out to connect!
Looking forward to hearing more about your plans for Sweep and its potential impact on the dev community. Keep up the great work!
@sean_dorje Hey Sean! Thanks for the great questions!
1) Sweep is improving through us, we don’t train on our user’s code.
2) For integrations, we’re happy to build more, we have some with Linear and Sentry.
3) Sweep currently supports almost any language/framework GPT4 supports.
4) Finally, our Github app has the minimal set of permissions needed(it can only write PRs, not merge them). We also do not store user code as plaintext :)
Hope I answered your questions!
