Get the review a senior team would have given you.

You shipped it alone, probably with AI. A working product lead, staff engineer or growth lead uses what you built and writes down what they would say in a design review.

No queue. No reviews to write back. Not useful? Refunded in full for 7 days after it lands.

Pick the lens

Choose the discipline. The reviewer comes from that bench and reviews only what they know.

Product

Does this solve a real problem, and does the first run make sense?

Engineering

Will this survive real users, and what did the model quietly get wrong?

What you get

Every review has the same four parts, so you can act on it at once.

What held up

The parts that did what you claimed, confirmed by running them.

Where it broke

The exact input, click or edge case that failed. Specific enough to be a ticket.

You ask one question at order time. It gets a direct answer.

One prioritised recommendation, not a list of twelve.

An actual review

not a sample — this one shipped

Written for ClearAddress, an email-verification API. Reproduced with the maker's permission.

@jonnoverified humanran the API before writing · 8 Jul

Ran my own address through it before writing this: curl ca.rda.run/v1/[email protected]. No key, no signup, and the answer came back in about 300ms. The checks it claims are the checks it does: it caught a mailinator address as disposable, flagged a dead domain, and rejected a malformed one on syntax.

You see who before they start. Not a pool, not a queue. Decline and re-queue for free.

STEP 3
It lands, or it is refunded
