# Read PR

> Proof that a human actually read the pull request, as a required CI check.

Read PR is a GitHub App plus a browser extension. The extension measures
per-file dwell time while a reviewer reads a diff on github.com; the GitHub
App turns the `read-pr/reviewed` check green only once every changed file has
been read. Branch protection can then require that check, so approval stops
being the honor system. It tracks reading, not readers: per-file dwell time
only, no keystrokes, no mouse paths, no screenshots. Pricing is flat monthly
bands by active reader count (Startup $19, Team $99, Business $349) with
unlimited private repos on every plan; public repositories are free.

## Product

- [Read PR](https://readpr.dev/): A GitHub App and browser extension that gates pull request approval until a human has read every file. Proof of review as a CI check, not the honor system.
- [Install](https://readpr.dev/install): Install Read PR on your GitHub repo in two minutes. Add the GitHub App, install the browser extension, and the read-pr/reviewed CI check goes live.
- [Pricing](https://readpr.dev/pricing): Flat monthly bands by active readers. Startup $19, Team $99, Business $349. Unlimited private repos on every plan. Public repos free, forever.
- [Compare](https://readpr.dev/compare): Where Read PR fits next to GitHub's honor system, AI code review tools, and audit tooling. A side-by-side comparison of what each does and what they cannot do.
- [Read PR for AI-generated pull requests](https://readpr.dev/ai-code-review): AI is writing more pull requests than humans can review honestly. Read PR is the human pass that follows the model: a required CI check that turns green only after a person has actually read the diff.
- [Manifesto](https://readpr.dev/manifesto): Code review was the last human check before merge. AI-generated code is turning it into a rubber stamp. Why we built Read PR.
- [Security](https://readpr.dev/security): How Read PR handles your code, your reviewers, and your data. Encryption, access control, vulnerability disclosure, and SOC 2 status.
- [Changelog](https://readpr.dev/changelog): Every Read PR release. What shipped, what changed, and what is next.

## Who it is for

- [Read PR for engineering leaders](https://readpr.dev/for/engineering-leaders): Stop rubber-stamping, raise the bar on review, and prove it without nagging. A required CI check that turns green only after the diff has been read.
- [Read PR for security & compliance](https://readpr.dev/for/security-and-compliance): A verifiable record that a human reviewed every file in a pull request before merge. Per-file dwell time, per reviewer, exportable for SOC 2 and ISO 27001 evidence.
- [Read PR for open source maintainers](https://readpr.dev/for/open-source): Free for public repositories. A required CI check that gates merge until a maintainer has actually read the contributor diff. Useful for trust, contributor onboarding, and supply-chain hygiene.
