Question 1

Does Pull Panda replace GitHub?

Accepted Answer

No, we work alongside your existing workflow. Pull Panda integrates directly with GitHub to enhance the review experience without changing where you manage your code. Your team keeps using the same pull request process they're used to. We just make the review part less painful by surfacing the most important changes, preserving context, and organizing feedback in ways GitHub's interface wasn't built to handle.

Question 2

How do you handle large pull requests?

Accepted Answer

We break them down intelligently. Instead of dumping 47 changed files on your reviewers, Pull Panda analyzes the changes and groups related modifications together. We highlight the critical paths through the code and surface potential issues automatically. Think of it as getting a guided tour instead of wandering through a maze. Reviewers can focus on what actually matters rather than clicking through tabs trying to piece together what happened.

Question 3

Will my team actually use this?

Accepted Answer

The best tools don't require changing how your team works. Pull Panda fits into the review workflow developers already follow, so there's no steep learning curve or process overhaul. We've found that once developers experience a review with proper context and focused feedback, they don't want to go back to the old way. Junior developers especially benefit from clearer, more constructive feedback that feels collaborative rather than critical.

Question 4

What if we're already breaking PRs into smaller chunks?

Accepted Answer

That discipline is great, and Pull Panda makes it even better. Smaller PRs are easier to review, but they still need context. Why did you make these changes? How do they fit into the bigger picture? What should reviewers focus on? Pull Panda ensures that context travels with every pull request, regardless of size. We also help teams maintain that discipline by making larger PRs easier to handle when they're genuinely necessary.

Question 5

Can we try it without committing our whole team?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Start with one repository or one team and see how it feels. Most teams run Pull Panda alongside their regular process for a sprint or two before deciding to expand. We're not asking you to overhaul your entire workflow on day one. Try it where it matters most, see the difference, and scale from there when you're ready.
