Introducing Releasebot - AI-Powered Changelogs for Developers
Today we're launching Releasebot, a service that automatically generates human-readable changelogs from your GitHub pull requests using AI.
We're excited to announce the launch of Releasebot, a new way to keep your users informed about what's shipping in your product.
The Problem
Every developer knows the struggle: you've just shipped a great feature, but now you need to write release notes. You stare at a list of merged PRs, trying to translate technical changes into something your users will understand.
Most teams either:
- Skip changelogs entirely - leaving users in the dark
- Write minimal notes - "Bug fixes and improvements"
- Spend hours manually writing - time that could be spent building
None of these options are great.
Our Solution
Releasebot automatically generates human-readable changelog entries when you merge pull requests. Here's how it works:
- Connect your GitHub repositories - Install our GitHub App
- Merge a PR - Just work like you normally do
- Get a changelog entry - AI analyzes your PR and generates a clear description
That's it. No extra steps in your workflow.
What Makes Releasebot Different
AI That Understands Code
We use Claude to analyze your PRs - not just the title, but the description, commits, and even the changed files. This gives us deep context to generate accurate, helpful descriptions.
Public Changelog Pages
Every repository gets a beautiful public changelog page. Share it with your users so they can see what you're building.
Built for Reliability
We know changelogs aren't mission-critical, but they matter. Our system is built with:
- Webhook chaos handling (duplicates, retries, out-of-order events)
- Durable job processing with automatic retries
- Full audit trail for debugging
