AWS CodeGuru: AI-Powered Code Review and Profiling

AWS CodeGuru is Amazon's AI-powered developer tool that automates code reviews and identifies application performance issues. Trained on millions of code reviews from Amazon's internal codebase and open-source repositories, CodeGuru detects defects, security vulnerabilities, and performance bottlenecks that manual reviews often miss.

Two Core Capabilities

CodeGuru has two main components: CodeGuru Reviewer for static code analysis and security scanning during pull requests, and CodeGuru Profiler for identifying CPU utilization and latency bottlenecks in production applications.

Key Features

• Automated PR reviews: AI comments on pull requests with specific line-level recommendations
• Security scanning: Detects OWASP Top 10, AWS credential exposure, and injection vulnerabilities
• Performance profiling: Identifies expensive code paths in production with flame graphs
• AWS best practices: Recommendations based on Amazon's internal engineering standards
• CI/CD integration: GitHub, GitHub Enterprise, Bitbucket, AWS CodeCommit
• Machine learning: Continuously improving models trained on real code reviews

Who Uses AWS CodeGuru?

AWS CodeGuru is used by development teams already in the AWS ecosystem who want automated code quality and security feedback without adopting a separate third-party tool. It's particularly strong for Java and Python applications.

Pricing

CodeGuru Reviewer charges $0.75 per 100 lines of code analyzed. CodeGuru Profiler charges $0.005 per hour of profiling per host.
