Key Risks + Mitigation

warning

AI hallucination in code suggestions

HIGH

Mitigation: Add confidence scoring to every suggestion. Only auto-suggest fixes above 95% confidence. Always show diff preview before applying.

warning

GitHub API rate limits at scale

MEDIUM

Mitigation: Queue-based processing with priority for paid users. Cache repository context to reduce API calls.

warning

Enterprise security concerns with AI code access

MEDIUM

Mitigation: SOC 2 compliance from day 1. On-premise option for enterprise. Zero data retention policy for code.

info

GitHub launching native AI review

LOW

Mitigation: GitHub Copilot focuses on code generation, not review. Our moat is review-specific accuracy and security scanning depth.
