Which one would each critic pick
| Critic | CodeAnt AI | DeepSource | Pick |
|---|---|---|---|
| El Juez | — | — | not enough reviews |
| El Amigo | 6.3 | 6.5 | DeepSource — Pick it if you want review, security scanning and coverage from one vendor; pick Codacy when the editor-side catch matters more than the automatic fix. |
| El Crítico | 5.8 | 6.0 | DeepSource — The automatic correction commits back to the pull request, so a wrong fix becomes a commit with your pipeline's approval and your author's name near it. |
| El Profesor | 5.5 | 6.5 | DeepSource — Deterministic analysers and model agents produce findings into the same comment stream with no published split between them, and no precision figure for either. |
| La Inversora | 6.0 | 7.5 | DeepSource — A $24 per-user subscription with review metered per processed line on top, and bring-your-own-inference held back for the enterprise tier, is a well-designed expansion ladder. |
| La Jefa | 6.0 | 6.3 | DeepSource — Sixty seats at $24 billed yearly is $1,440 a month, and the annual review credit of $100 covers roughly one week before the per-line meter starts. |
| El Hacker | 4.3 | 4.0 | CodeAnt AI — Closed, hosted, no key of my own and no protocol support, so my only local footholds are the editor plugin and the CLI. |
