Qodo Developer plan: how do the 30 PRs/month limit work, and what happens when we exceed it?

Quick Answer: On the Qodo Developer plan, you get 30 fully analyzed pull requests per month across all connected repos in your workspace. When you hit that limit, Qodo pauses new PR reviews until your monthly quota resets, but your existing reviews, IDE usage, and configuration remain intact—and you can upgrade at any time if you need more capacity.

Why This Matters

If you’re evaluating Qodo for yourself or a small team, you need to know exactly how the 30 PRs/month limit behaves so you don’t get surprised in the middle of a release cycle. The Developer plan is designed to give you meaningful, multi-repo code review coverage—without forcing you into an enterprise contract before you’re ready. Understanding how Qodo counts PRs and what happens after you hit the limit lets you plan your workflow, manage your backlog, and decide when it’s time to scale up.

Key Benefits:

• Predictable usage: A clear 30 PRs/month limit makes it obvious how much automated review capacity you have before commit and at PR time.
• Safe evaluation: You can see Qodo’s review agents in real workflows—logic checks, missing tests, compliance rules—without committing to enterprise pricing.
• Smooth upgrade path: When you start to outgrow 30 PRs/month, you can upgrade without losing configuration, rules, or historical learning.

Core Concepts & Key Points

Concept	Definition	Why it's important
PR review unit	A single pull request that Qodo fully analyzes with its review agents (issues, suggestions, tests, summaries).	This is the core “meter” for the Developer plan—the 30/month limit applies to these units.
Monthly quota window	The recurring 30-day billing cycle when your 30 PRs/month limit is counted and reset.	Tells you when your PR count will refresh and when paused reviews resume automatically.
Post-limit behavior	What Qodo does once you pass 30 PRs in a month on the Developer plan.	Helps you avoid breaks in your review pipeline and decide when to upgrade.

How It Works (Step-by-Step)

At a high level, the Qodo Developer plan gives you a fixed monthly budget of 30 pull request reviews by our agentic workflows. Here’s how that plays out in practice.

1. Connect your repos and CI:

   • You hook Qodo into your Git provider (e.g., GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, Azure DevOps) and configure where you want PR reviews to run.
   • Qodo’s Context Engine indexes your codebase across repositories so review agents can reason about real dependencies, shared modules, and patterns—not just a single diff.

2. Qodo reviews each new PR until you hit 30:

   • For each eligible pull request in your workspace, Qodo:
     • Runs pre-checks (bugs, logic gaps, missing tests, risky changes).
     • Applies your “living rules” (style, standards, compliance, traceability).
     • Produces high-signal output: inline comments, a prioritized list of issues, suggested fixes, and test suggestions.
   • Each PR that gets this full review counts as 1 against your 30 PRs/month limit—regardless of how many commits or files are inside that PR.
   • Qodo is built for scale (it handles 20K PRs daily across customers), so you get the same agentic workflows the larger teams use—just metered at 30 PRs/month.

3. When you exceed 30 PRs in a month:

   • As soon as the 31st PR in your billing cycle arrives:
     • Qodo stops running new automated PR reviews on additional pull requests for that workspace.
     • Existing PR reviews, comments, and suggestions remain available; nothing is deleted.
     • Your IDE integration and CLI commands that don’t require new PR reviews can still be used as configured.
   • You’ll typically see clear signals in the UI that you’ve hit your quota and that new PRs won’t be auto-reviewed until:
     • The monthly window resets, or
     • You move to a plan with higher PR capacity.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Assuming 30 PRs/month means 30 commits:
  Qodo counts pull requests, not individual commits. A PR with 15 commits and a PR with 1 commit each count as one unit. If your team likes tiny PRs, you’ll hit the limit faster—plan accordingly.

• Treating the limit as “per repo” instead of “per workspace”:
  The 30 PRs/month limit is applied at the workspace level across all connected repositories. Don’t assume you get 30 PRs per repo—share that budget across your services and prioritize where Qodo adds the most value.

Real-World Example

Imagine a small team running 5 microservices with a modest flow of pull requests:

• Average of 3–4 PRs per engineer per week.
• 3 engineers using Qodo on the Developer plan.
• Around 35–40 PRs opened per month across all services.

They connect their Git provider, turn on Qodo for their main repos, and start getting:

• Agentic pre-reviews on each PR (logic gaps, missing tests, risky changes).
• Automatic checks for cross-service breakage (thanks to multi-repo context).
• A “review-ready queue” where human reviewers see prioritized issues instead of raw diffs.

By week 3, they reach 30 PRs reviewed by Qodo. From PR #31 onward:

• Qodo stops adding new automated review comments on fresh PRs.
• Previous PRs remain fully visible with all Qodo feedback.
• Their team can still merge code as usual, just without new agentic review on those extra PRs.
• They realize that hitting the cap every month is the norm, not an exception—signal that it’s time to move beyond the Developer plan and unlock more PR capacity so all PRs benefit from the same review bar.

Pro Tip: If your team regularly hits the 30 PRs/month ceiling, decide which repos or branches are most critical (e.g., customer-facing services, security-sensitive components) and ensure those PRs are the ones Qodo reviews first—then talk to us about a plan aligned with your actual PR volume.

Summary

The Qodo Developer plan’s 30 PRs/month limit is a simple, predictable way to get “Beyond LGTM” code review without committing to an enterprise rollout on day one. Each fully analyzed pull request across your workspace counts as one unit; once you hit 30 in a billing cycle, Qodo pauses new automated PR reviews until your quota resets or you upgrade. You keep your history, rules, and context, and you can scale up smoothly when your PR volume—and your reliance on Qodo’s review-first workflows—grows.
