Pitroom

A free pit crew for your expensive coding agent

Cheaper and faster: hand the reading, fixes, tests and reviews to workers that run in parallel. Keep the decisions.

Why Pitroom?

Claude Code, Codex and friends spend premium tokens *reading*: grepping, opening files, scanning code they'll never quote.

Pitroom goes one step further:

Your agent stays in the driver's seat. A pit crew of cheap workers does the legwork in parallel, while your agent keeps going, and hands back only the answer, the exact diff and a receipt.

Your model, not ours

No model is hardcoded.
