Verdict

Sourcery is the cheapest way to get instant refactoring feedback while you type, and it stays free for open source projects and individual use.

What customers praise

The VS Code and JetBrains extensions rewrite code as you type rather than waiting for a pull request, which shortens the feedback loop to seconds.

What customers criticise

Its depth outside Python and JavaScript is limited, and it rarely catches architectural or cross-service problems.

Best for

Python-heavy teams and solo maintainers who want refactoring suggestions in the editor as well as on the pull request.
