How does Spedy sync with GitHub issues?

You connect your GitHub repo. Existing issues are imported; new issues sync bidirectionally: status, labels, comments, assignees. You work in Spedy, contributors in GitHub — both see the same state.

What is BYOK and why?

‘Bring your own key’: you connect your own Anthropic or OpenAI API key. The agent runs with your credentials and you pay LLM cost directly (typically €0.05–0.50 per ticket). Spedy takes no margin — fair for OSS maintainers with a sponsors budget.

How does the AI agent help with ‘good first issues’?

You write a well-defined ticket. The agent opens a PR with skeleton code (function signature, test stub, doc hint). A contributor picks the ticket and completes it — onboarding friction drastically lower.

Can we use Spedy for our OSS project for free?

Solo maintainers: yes, always (free plan). Established OSS projects (>1k GitHub stars, public repo, OSI license) get Pro free for the core team. Email oss@spedy.ai — we’ll enable it.

What if the project has commercial sponsors?

As long as the project is OSI-licensed and the code is public, the OSS tier applies. If you build a separate Pro version or a SaaS on top, that’s a regular SaaS pricing setup.

For open-source maintainers · Indie

Triaging issues isn’t a job. Writing code is.

OSS reality: GitHub issues pile up, contributors need clearly-written tickets, GitHub Sponsors rarely covers a full SaaS stack. Spedy includes the AI agent in the free plan — and gives you triage power instead of triage burden.

What we hear

GitHub issues are unstructured: bug reports, feature wishes, support questions, all in one stream.
Contributors get stuck on ticket detail: ‘What exactly should I do? Which file? Which test?’ — you explain it in a comment, three times a week.
Roadmap transparency is wanted, but GitHub Projects is half a try — no releases, no sprints.
GitHub Sponsors won’t pay for 5 SaaS subscriptions. You need something that works in the free plan.
Burnout: solo maintainers need leverage, otherwise the project dies.

How Spedy solves it

Concrete answers, no marketing promises.

Free plan is enough for solo maintainers

1 user, all features. No artificially capped Pro features. If you maintain alone, you pay nothing.

Public forms instead of unstructured issues

Bug reports and feature requests get a form: repro steps, version, logs as required fields. Structured or not at all. GitHub Issues stays free for contributor discussion.

AI agent for ‘good first issues’

Mark a ticket as a good first issue? The agent can prep it: PR with skeleton, stubbed tests, doc update. The contributor picks up a half-done PR instead of an empty codebase.

Wiki as ‘CONTRIBUTING.md on steroids’

Architecture diagrams, decision records, style guides live in the wiki — searchable, versioned, with AI search. Contributors find answers without pinging you.

GitHub sync, not replacement

Spedy syncs with GitHub Issues. You work in Spedy (triage, roadmap, sprints), contributors work in GitHub. Both worlds talk to each other.

Our recommendation

Recommended: Free (€0)

For solo maintainers the free plan is enough. If your project has a core team of 2–5 maintainers, you switch to Pro (€9 / user / month). Spedy offers Pro free for established OSS projects (>1k stars) — drop us a line.
