What is Sweep AI?

Sweep AI is an AI-powered developer that reads GitHub issues and automatically creates pull requests to address them. You connect it to your repository, describe a problem or feature request in an issue, and Sweep analyses your codebase, writes code, and submits a PR for review. It's designed to handle routine development tasks, bug fixes, and feature implementation without human coding. The tool integrates directly with GitHub, making it useful for teams wanting to automate parts of their development workflow. It works best with well-documented codebases and clear issue descriptions.
