Client updates, on autopilot
GitLoom is a Slack-first pull request notification tool for independent developers: it watches your client repos and sends one quiet digest of what you shipped, what's stuck, and what happened this week, in plain English you can forward as-is.
Built for teams who'd rather ship.
The client update writes itself
The weekly digest summarizes what you shipped in plain English. Forward it instead of composing a Friday email.
Your stuck PRs get surfaced
When your PR sits waiting on the client’s review, the digest says so. The nudge comes from the report, not from you.
Plain English clients understand
Reports read like a short written update, not a commit log. Non-technical clients can follow along, and custom instructions per report let you match each client’s style.
Works outside Slack too
Reports deliver to Slack, email, or Telegram, so every client gets updates in the channel they actually read.
Quiet by default
If nothing changed, GitLoom stays silent. Clients get signal, never noise.
Solo-friendly pricing
The Starter plan is $29 a month with a 10-day free trial. Setup takes about two minutes per repo.
Common use cases.
Friday, without the write-up
The weekly digest covers what shipped, so end-of-week reporting stops eating an unbillable hour.
Unblocking client reviews
A PR waiting on the client’s side shows up in the digest, which is a much easier conversation than "please review my PR again".
Several clients, several repos
Each engagement gets its own quiet reporting, so you keep the full picture without living in GitHub tabs.
Wrapping up an engagement
Drafted release notes turn months of merged work into a clean handoff summary.
Backing up the invoice
A weekly written record of shipped work makes invoices easy to stand behind.
Starting with a new client
Professional, automatic updates from week one set the tone before anyone asks for a status report. You can test-send a report to yourself before the client sees anything.
Spend Fridays shipping, not summarizing.
Connect a client repo in about two minutes. 10-day free trial on the $29 Starter plan.
