Never let a pull request fall through the cracks
HotBot tracks your open PRs and posts a daily summary to Slack, Discord, or Teams. Your team sees what needs review before standup - no more "did anyone look at my PR?"
Works with your stack
Built for teams who are tired of PRs going stale
We built this because we kept forgetting to review each other's PRs. Now it's just part of our morning routine - check Slack, see what needs review, done.

Frequently asked questions
🔒 What permissions do you need?
Only read-only access to repository metadata and PR information. We never access your actual code, and all data is encrypted in transit and at rest.
⚡ How quickly can we get started?
Setup takes about 5 minutes. Connect your GitHub/GitLab account, add HotBot to your Slack/Discord/Teams, configure your first notification schedule, and you're done. No technical setup required.
🔇 How do you control notification noise?
Smart defaults exclude drafts, WIP PRs, bot-generated content, and already-reviewed PRs. You can customize filters by labels, file paths, authors, and more. Most teams see 90% less notification noise.
🎯 Do you create false positives?
Rarely. Built-in intelligence filters for draft status, WIP labels, reviewer assignments, and team conventions. Our algorithms learn your team's patterns to minimize irrelevant notifications.
⚙️ How customizable are the escalation rules?
Fully customizable. Set different thresholds for different repos, exclude certain labels or authors, define escalation chains (reviewer → team lead → manager), and customize timing for each step.
