But it doesn't need to be.
The four things Macroscope does to a pull request — review, gate, approve and explain — walked through in order, live on a real PR.
Free · 60 minutes · Recording sent to everyone who registers
It's a product walkthrough, not a pitch. You do not need a Macroscope account to get something out of it.
Each stage only pays off once the one before it is in place. You cannot gate what nothing reviewed, and you cannot safely auto-approve what nothing gated. Ivan and Kayvon will walk through them on a live PR, not a slide deck.
Not every change should be reviewed the same way.
Detection Mode gives you four profiles, Budget through Ultra, switchable per repo or per pull request with a label. A typo fix and a migration do not need the same scrutiny, or the same bill.
How Detection Mode works →Your conventions, as checks that can block a merge.
Check Run Agents turn the rules your team already holds into checks you write in plain markdown. They run against your codebase, git history and integrations — and they can fail the check, not just leave a comment someone scrolls past.
How Check Run Agents work →About 40% of pull requests never needed you.
Low-risk pull requests from trusted authors that clear review with zero issues get approved automatically. Human review still matters on the ones that need it. The point is getting to those faster.
How auto-approval works →Plain language on what actually landed.
Status reads the week's merged work and tells you what shipped, in sentences. Not a commit wall, not a burndown chart nobody opens.
How Status works →60 minutes, including live Q&A at the end.
On the pull requests that need it. The whole point of the first three stages is getting a human to those faster, with less in front of them.

Nothing. The webinar is free and registration takes about ten seconds.
Yes. Everyone who registers gets the recording by email afterwards, so it is worth registering even if you cannot make the time.
A live walkthrough of the four things Macroscope does to a pull request, in order: Detection Mode profiles picking how hard to look, a Check Run Agent failing a merge on your own conventions, an automatic approval on a low-risk PR, and the Status report that comes out the other end. Product, not slides.
Engineering leaders, platform and developer-experience teams, and anyone who owns the pull request pipeline and has watched review become the slowest step in it.
No. This one covers the same four stages, framed around the problem underneath them: review capacity. If you caught September, expect the same walkthrough with the bottleneck argument made explicit. If you did not, nothing here assumes it.
No. The session is a product walkthrough and is useful whether or not you have ever installed Macroscope.
