# Introduction

> Learn how the Autter platform reviews pull requests and how the Autter CLI records AI authorship.

Autter has two complementary products:

* **Autter platform** reviews proposed changes before merge.
* **Autter CLI** records AI authorship as developers and coding agents edit code.

You can use either product independently or connect them for team-level attribution and analytics.

## Autter platform

The Autter platform is an AI code review product for pull requests and merge requests. It uses the current diff, codebase context, team rules, linked work items, and scanner output to find issues before merge.

The platform can help you:

* find bugs, edge cases, and security risks
* apply team standards written in natural language
* summarize a pull request and its architectural impact
* suggest concrete fixes
* run linters, security scanners, and pre-merge checks
* measure review cycle time and team activity

Autter works alongside human review. It handles repeatable checks and surfaces context so reviewers can focus on architecture, product behavior, and risk.

## Autter CLI

The open source Autter CLI records explicit AI authorship. Coding agents report which lines they changed, so Autter does not need to guess whether code was written by AI.

The CLI links AI-authored lines to the coding agent, model, and prompt context. You can inspect that information with commands such as `autter blame` and `autter stats`.

<Info>
  Local-only mode works without an account. Connected mode sends selected attribution and prompt data to your Autter organization. Review [Data and privacy](/cli/data-and-privacy) before choosing a mode.
