MyChangeNote: Beautifully Telling Your Git Commits

Overview

MyChangeNote is a platform designed to transform raw Git commits into clear, human-friendly release notes. By connecting directly to GitHub or allowing manual pasting of commits, the service utilizes AI to generate professional changelogs in under two minutes. The resulting output includes a beautiful public page, optional email notifications, and an embeddable widget, ensuring that both technical and non-technical stakeholders understand what has been shipped.

Benefits

MyChangeNote offers several key advantages for teams managing software updates. The AI Writer generates copy that avoids developer jargon, focusing on clarity and impact. This ensures that updates are understandable to non-developers. For example, it can convert a technical message like "Refactored null pointer handling" into a simple statement like "Fixed a crash that affected some users." The platform also provides a public changelog page with a branded timeline layout, category filters, and search functionality. Users can set up email subscriptions to automatically notify subscribers when new releases are published. A unique feature called Deep Analysis reads the actual code diffs to explain exactly what changed in plain English, going beyond just reading commit messages. Security is a top priority, with measures like no credential storage, transient code diffs that are immediately discarded, and encryption for all data.

Use Cases

This tool is ideal for development teams, startups, and product managers who need to communicate updates clearly. It works well for teams that want to bridge the gap between technical teams and non-technical stakeholders, such as co-founders or investors. By providing clear visibility into weekly shipments, it helps everyone stay informed about what has been shipped. The embeddable widget allows applications to display a floating "What's New" button for users, requiring no extra dependencies. It is particularly useful for teams that want to reduce the time spent writing update emails and ensure that bug fixes and improvements are transparently communicated to improve user trust.

Additional Information

The infrastructure utilizes SOC 2-grade security from Supabase. Payments are processed through Stripe, which is PCI DSS compliant. The platform ensures that no data is used for training the Anthropic Claude AI model. GitHub Personal Access Tokens are used only for the current request and are never stored in the database. When Deep Analysis runs, code diffs are sent to the AI engine for a single request and are immediately discarded. No code is stored, indexed, or used for training. Database queries are protected by Supabase Row Level Security, ensuring projects are invisible to other users. All data is encrypted via TLS in transit, and database, auth tokens, and payment details are encrypted at rest on enterprise-grade infrastructure. Only explicitly selected commits are analyzed; the platform never crawls, indexes, or stores entire repositories.
