Pulldog

Pulldog is a native macOS application built to make pull request reviews feel less chaotic and less tied to endless browser tabs. Instead of treating GitHub and GitLab reviews as something that only happens inside the browser, Pulldog turns code review into a more focused desktop workflow designed specifically for macOS.

The app aggregates pull requests from multiple accounts into a single inbox and gives developers tools to filter, organize, and prioritize reviews more effectively. Smart queries help reduce PR noise, making it easier to focus on the reviews that actually need attention instead of constantly scanning crowded dashboards.

What makes the product stand out is how heavily it leans into native macOS interactions rather than recreating a web app inside a desktop wrapper. Features like Spotlight actions, widgets, and on-device Apple Intelligence integrations are used to make reviewing code feel faster and more integrated into the operating system itself.

The broader philosophy behind Pulldog is fairly clear: code review is already mentally demanding, so the tooling around it should reduce friction instead of adding more context switching. By removing the browser-heavy workflow and consolidating reviews into a dedicated environment, the app tries to make pull request management calmer, cleaner, and easier to stay on top of over time.
