During a retrospective with Autajon’s development team, two clear issues surfaced:

  • Merge requests were taking too long

  • Code reviews weren’t catching everything — quality issues still slipped through

Working across multiple stacks like Vue, JavaScript, and Java made it harder to standardize reviews and scale best practices. Manual review efforts were stretched thin, inconsistent, and vulnerable to oversight.

Merge request reviews were slow, and quality was slipping — now we’re fast and solid.

Autajon brought in CodeAnt AI as an intelligent reviewer — a new kind of team member — seamlessly integrated into their on-prem GitLab environment with no internet access required. This was a non-negotiable for Autajon: the deployment had to be fully secure and entirely self-contained within their infrastructure. CodeAnt AI delivered exactly that.

From the start, the system added immediate value:

  • Scans the entire codebase in seconds

  • Handles a versatile stack: Python, Vue.js, HTML, CSS, Terraform, Bash

  • Flags issues linters miss, like typos and hidden bugs

  • Suggests refactors, performance improvements, and code cleanup

  • Detects security vulnerabilities, duplication, and poor patterns

  • Runs in a fully private, enterprise-grade environment with no external exposure

We now have a new team member: CodeAnt AI. It sees our entire codebase in seconds, catches what linters miss, and suggests optimizations, refactors, even typos. It’s fully integrated into our on-prem GitLab — and the whole team adopted it instantly.
