AI Debt Auditor

Developer ToolsAI/MLB2B SaaS

A GitHub Action that scans pull requests for AI-generated code patterns, estimates the long-term maintenance cost (complexity, duplication, lack of documentation), and assigns a 'loan rating' with refactoring suggestions before merge. It flags code likely produced by Copilot-style completions.

Target Audience

Engineering leads at startups where 70%+ of new code is AI-generated and code review is superficial because reviewers trust the AI. They are silently accumulating technical debt that will slow velocity in six months.

Why Now

GitHub Trending includes copilot-sdk and dev.to's 'Every AI-Generated Line of Code Is a Small Loan — And Eventually, You Have to Pay It Back' directly names the pain. No existing tool quantifies the maintainability burden of AI-written code.

Export to .md with a startup plan — implementation, monetization, first customers.
