PRVOD docs
A real pull request, narrated end to end

Watch any pull request explain itself

PRVOD is an open-source tool that generates video walkthroughs for pull requests and codebases — a living knowledge base where the code is the source of truth.

Quick start

Postgres in Docker, npm run dev on your host, one CLI command. Setup is a handful of commands; the first walkthrough renders in 8–15 minutes.

Understand the pipeline

Diff parsing, script generation with the Self-Refine judge loop, TTS, and FFmpeg composition — what each stage does and what it costs.

Compare to your current setup

PRVOD versus written PR descriptions, manual Loom recordings, AI code-review tools, static doc sites, and code-coupled docs. Trade-offs spelled out per row.

What PRVOD produces

Section titled “What PRVOD produces”

A short narrated video that walks through a PR end-to-end, with synchronized captions and a permanent review page. Each walkthrough is generated from the diff itself — no recording, no manual scripting, no separate authoring step. The output is hosted at /reviews/[jobId] and /watch/[jobId] and can be shared with anyone who needs to see what shipped.

Four modes cover the range of PR sizes:

  • Standard — 20–120 seconds, scaled to diff size.
  • Short — 20–60 second focused walkthrough.
  • Popcorn — ~5-minute deep tour through every changed file, built for PRs you would otherwise need a meeting to explain.
  • Deepdive — reviewer-style narration, combinable with any of the above.

Source code and hosted tier

Section titled “Source code and hosted tier”

PRVOD is open source at github.com/keep-honest/prvod. The hosted tier at prvod.dev runs the same generation pipeline and adds the surface layer the OSS does not:

  • User management — orgs, roles, per-repo access, audit log.
  • Two-way PR review surface — comment on scenes or diff hunks in the player; comments round-trip to the GitHub PR as inline review comments.
  • Walkthrough library — every walkthrough your org has generated, in one searchable place indexed by repo, PR, author, and topic.
  • Ongoing feature work — new capabilities built on the open core ship to hosted first.

Choose whichever fits your privacy, cost, and ops trade-offs. The self-host vs hosted FAQ breaks down the decision.
