Quickstart

Get Koalr connected to your GitHub and see your first deploy risk score in under 5 minutes.

Step 1: Create your account

Go to app.koalr.com/signup and sign up with your work email. No credit card required.

Step 2: Connect GitHub

  1. Click Settings → Integrations in the sidebar
  2. Click Connect next to GitHub
  3. Authorize the Koalr GitHub App on your organization
  4. Select the repositories you want to monitor

Koalr will immediately begin syncing your pull request history, deployment events, and CODEOWNERS files.

Step 3: See your first deploy risk score

Navigate to Delivery → Deploy Risk. Within 60 seconds of connecting GitHub, Koalr computes a fast-path risk score for all open pull requests using live signals:

  • Lines of code changed vs. your team median
  • Number of files and directories touched (change entropy)
  • CODEOWNERS coverage
  • CI status
  • Days open (staleness)

You'll see a ranked list: "You have 3 High Risk PRs open right now."

Step 4: Invite your team (optional)

Go to Settings → Members and invite engineers. Each member gets access to team DORA metrics, deploy risk alerts on their own PRs, and the AI chat panel.
