Refraction Autoreview + CLI
We just rolled out Autoreview — a GitHub Marketplace plugin that automatically generates descriptions and code reviews for your PRs. It's still in beta, but we'd love to get your thoughts on it!
Available now for paid Teams.
We also released Refraction for Terminal, a fun little CLI that allows you to generate code using AI straight in your terminal.
Enjoy! ✌️
Analytics for Teams and Reviews
Howdy folks! We've been quiet recently as we work on some amazing new features for Refraction. First one up is Analytics for Teams, where admins can get granular insights into their team's usage of Refraction.
On top of that, you can also review and rate AI responses now! You'll get a little toast down the bottom after you generate some code, where you can leave a rating (👍, 🤷♀️, 👎) and a further review.
Check it out and let us know what you think!
Visual Studio Extension for Refraction
Our Visual Studio extension is now live! Download the extension now. Supports Visual Studio 2017, 2019 and 2022, incl. community edition.

Content Security Policy and Diagram Generators
Today we released two new tools — a Content Security Policy generator and a Diagram generator! We've been having fun playing with Mermaid (the language behind the Diagrams utility) making AI flowcharts for our internal READMEs.
Give them a try and let us know what you think!
File uploads and fixed C language
Today we added a drag-and-drop file upload so you can easily refactor and optimize entire files from your codebase! Also, we fixed our C language implementation and added support for Check and CUnit testing libraries.
🎥 New videos + even more new languages
Today, we launched a few new videos, one on our homepage that shows a bunch of Refraction utilities working together, and one for our VS Code Extension. We also rolled out a small improvement to our dashboard for teams.
Also we've rolled out support for 12 new languages: ABAP, Ada, Apex, Batch, CameLIGO, Cobol, D, Fortran, Julia, PascaLIGO, Pug and Racket.
Have fun!
🤯 New features and new languages
Another big update today! We have two new features:
- Generate Regexes: Tell us what you want your regular expression to do and we will write it for you, as well as explain exactly how it works.
- Generate SQL Queries: Tell us what you want your database query to do and we will write it for you. Works for MySQL, Postgres, BigQuery, Redshift and more!
Also, we added support for 9 new languages: Clojure, F Sharp, Handlebars, Liquid, Powershell, Solidity, Visual Basic .NET, XML and YAML.
We also launched feature pages on our website, like Unit Tests, so you can see how these utilities work before using them! You can find them all on our Features page.
Lastly, if you're an organization wanting to start a business plan but need that extra certainty, we launched our Data Security Policy by special request.
That's all for today! Happy hacking.
🔮 Launched the Refraction Blog
A small update today! We launched the Refraction Blog, a place for us to share our thoughts on code, AI and the future of software engineering. We're using Midjourney to generate all the cover photos. Going for a magic-y theme, hope you enjoy it! Check it out.
