Six axes, head to head
Each axis runs 0 to 5. The label under a score is what that project's own docs claim, not a category average.
| Axis | ai-job-search | DeepTutor |
|---|---|---|
Context depth How much of your codebase it sees before it answers: the open diff, the diff plus related files, or the whole repository. | ●●●●● Repo + documents | ●●●●● Multi-doc RAG |
Noise control How it keeps output volume down — severity thresholds, deduplication, incremental runs over new commits only. | ●●●●● Reviewer + dedupe | ●●●●● Basic filters |
Customization How far it bends to your team: custom rules, prompts, style guides, per-path config. | ●●●●● Templates & portals | ●●●●● Plugin & skills |
Privacy Whether your code stays on your own infrastructure: fully local, self-hostable, or cloud API only. | ●●●●● Third-party cloud | ●●●●● Fully local |
Model freedom Whether you can point it at any provider, or it is wired to one. | ●●●●● Claude + others | ●●●●● BYOK + local |
Setup ease What it takes to get a first useful run out of it. | ●●●●● CLI + deps | ●●●●● One-command start |
