Tusk AI

What is Tusk AI?

Tusk AI is an AI assistant for software engineering workflows. Tag a task in Linear, Jira, or Notion, and Tusk sends code changes to your GitHub repository, typically within minutes. It opens pull requests, runs automated tests to verify they work, and provides code context when it can’t open a pull request immediately. The tool targets small but time-consuming work: customer-reported bug fixes, copy updates, and UI/UX tweaks. Users report that changes often need only a quick review and merge. Plans range from a free option for individuals to enterprise plans for larger companies.

Setup takes about 5 minutes: sync your GitHub repositories, then link Jira, Linear, or Notion to route tickets to Tusk. It supports frontend frameworks including Next.js, React, Angular, and Vue.js, plus design libraries like Material UI, Ant Design, and Chakra UI. Tusk performs best on copy changes, UI/UX improvements, and simple bug fixes.

Tusk was created by Marcel Tan and Sohil Upadhyay. The company focuses on automating code changes and testing for software engineers, with plans tailored to different team sizes, usage limits, and support levels.

What is Tusk AI used for?

• Ticket-to-PR code generation: Creates code directly from a ticket and opens a pull request.
• Iterative improvements: Refines changes based on code review feedback.
• Automated testing: Runs checks to confirm pull requests function correctly.
• Code context: Provides a starting point when it can’t create a pull request initially.
• Automated triaging: Sorts tasks, writes code for them, and tracks progress.
• Collaboration: Includes a ‘Request for Review’ feature and surfaces relevant tasks for product managers.
• Production codebases: Works on your live code, not just sandboxes.

Who is Tusk AI for?
