Introduction

Detail fixes bugs in the background while your team ships features. It exercises your code to find thousands of bugs, picks the top 1% you are most likely to care about and fixes them. One customer quote mentions 250+ fixes; another says Detail’s scan still found serious issues despite running Graphite, Codex, cubic, Gemini and Cursor Bugbot on PRs.

Testimonials describe bugs that traverse multiple layers of complexity, including one that could consume CPU indefinitely, subtle problems in critical API endpoints and issues missed by a recent pentest.

Because Detail works outside the PR loop, it complements reviewers rather than replacing them: review catches issues in new code, while Detail mines existing code for defects that have already shipped.

Launch and background: Detail was posted to Hacker News as a Show HN (“Detail, a Bug Finder”) on 9 December 2025.

Features

  1. Code exercising: Runs code paths to find bugs.
  2. Prioritisation: Top 1% surfaced.

Pricing

Detail’s first week is free. Plans are listed at $30 per contributor per month, with usage at $0.30 per credit.

Conclusion

Detail is a different angle on AI review: deep bug mining rather than PR comments.

Use the free week on your most critical service.
