AI coding agents open PRs faster than any team can review them. Spillway is the control layer that keeps a human hand on the gate — so what reaches production is always a deliberate decision, not a default.
Every existing tool — CodeRabbit, Graphite, Ellipsis, Copilot Review — asks "is this PR good?" That's a quality lens. Nobody is asking the operational question.
When AI agents are the primary author, the real problems are:
"The agent pull request flood is here — and validation is now the critical bottleneck." — The New Stack, Feb 2026
Agents are built to ship. They don't get tired, they don't second-guess, and they don't know what's at stake when something breaks in prod. You do.
Spillway scores every PR by risk and change type — so you work the ones that require human judgment, not the ones that arrived first.
Every merge is a human choice, not a rubber stamp. Your judgment, your call — with full context to make it confidently.
Immutable audit trail. Every decision attributed to a human. If it ships, someone owned it — and that record holds up when something breaks in prod.
A GitHub App. Installs in minutes — no infra, no config. Three phases that grow with your team's exposure to agentic development.
Risk scoring and plain-language summaries so engineers work the queue instead of drowning in it.
AI agents generate tests at scale. Most are noise. Spillway tells you which ones actually matter.
Regulated industries need human-in-the-loop guarantees. Spillway makes that enforceable and auditable.
Whether you're in the queue every day or responsible for what ships across the org — Spillway gives you the control layer agentic development is missing.
40 open PRs. Half from agents. Spillway ranks the queue by risk so you spend time where it matters — making real decisions, not rubber-stamping whatever shipped at 3am.
You own the pipeline. Spillway gives you the visibility to act like it — before agent PRs overwhelm your ability to reason about what's in the queue.
You deployed agents to move faster. Now you need to know if that velocity is real — or borrowed time.
Spillway is the truth layer: review rates, revert attribution, and an audit trail that proves a human was in control of every decision that reached production.
Spillway is in private beta. Join the waitlist and be among the first teams to put a human hand back on the mechanism — calmly, deliberately, without slowing down what's working.
