Engineering Ammunition for Modern Product Teams
Engammo is a tool to generate release notes from GitHub pull requests, automating release notes for GitHub repositories. We believe that every merged pull request should automatically become a clear, publishable update, so engineering teams can focus on building product instead of documenting what they built.
What is Engammo and how does it work?
Engammo is an AI release notes tool for GitHub: it turns every merged pull request into a plain-language, categorized release note. You install the GitHub App, and Engammo writes and publishes a note seconds after each merge, with no workflow file or commit convention to adopt.
1. Connect GitHub
Install the GitHub App and choose the public or private repositories Engammo can read.
2. Merge a pull request
GitHub sends a webhook. Engammo reads the PR title, description, labels and a trimmed summary of the changed files, writes a short summary with AI and tags it from your labels.
3. Publish the note
The note appears on your public changelog page, embeddable widget, RSS feed and JSON endpoints. Edit, regenerate or hide it at any time.
Starter is $29/month for up to 3 repositories, with a 14-day free trial. See how it works for the full walkthrough.
Our Mission
We are building the platform that eliminates the gap between shipping code and communicating what shipped. Our mission is to make release communication automatic, accurate, and useful for every stakeholder, from the engineer who wrote the code to the customer who benefits from it.
Why We Built Engammo
The Problem We Experienced
Before building Engammo, we saw the same pattern at the companies we worked with. Product managers asked engineers what shipped. Engineers wrote changelogs at the end of the sprint from memory. Customer success teams did not know about bug fixes until customers asked. The information existed in pull requests, but nobody was translating it into useful updates.
The Insight
Pull requests already contain all the information needed for good release notes: what changed, why it changed, and what category of change it is. The problem is not a lack of information. It is a lack of automation. AI is now capable of reading PR data and producing summaries that are accurate enough to publish with minimal editing.
The Solution
Engammo connects directly to GitHub, processes merged pull requests in real time, and uses AI to generate categorized, human-readable release notes. The goal is to make release communication automatic so that teams can focus on building product instead of writing documentation about what they built.
What We Share with Release Notes Generators
Release notes generators, such as GitHub Actions and scripts that collect merged pull requests, start from the same data as Engammo. Here is what is the same and what Engammo adds.
What is the same
- Both start from merged GitHub pull requests.
- Both group changes using your PR labels.
- Both work with the labels you already use, including Release Drafter labels.
- Both have a free option.
What Engammo adds
- Writing: AI writes a short title, a one-sentence description and plain-language bullets.
- Where notes appear: Hosted changelog page, one-script-tag widget, RSS feed and public JSON endpoints.
- Setup: Install the GitHub App and pick repositories, no workflow file.
- Versioned releases: One release note from all changes between two Git tags.
- Languages: English, plus Italian and Spanish translations on Team.

Engammo vs LaunchNotes and ReleasePad
Small teams looking for LaunchNotes alternatives, or for tools that summarize GitHub PRs with AI for product updates, often compare Engammo with these two. Here is what we share and where we differ.
LaunchNotes
- Shared: both publish product updates to a public page for customers and the rest of the company.
- Different: LaunchNotes is a release communication platform for larger product organizations, with many audiences, subscriptions and segmentation, and your team writes each update. Engammo writes the update for you from every merged GitHub pull request, so a small team needs no one to own the changelog.
- Price: LaunchNotes Growth is $999/month billed monthly, with a trial after a demo. Engammo Starter is $29/month with a 14-day free trial. Pick LaunchNotes when a product marketing team runs announcements for several audiences.
ReleasePad
- Shared: both install as a GitHub App, use AI to turn merged work into customer-facing notes and publish them to a changelog page and a widget.
- Different: ReleasePad drafts a post on its Pro plan that waits for your approval. Engammo publishes a note for every merged PR automatically, which you can edit, regenerate or hide afterwards, adds an RSS feed and JSON endpoints, and compiles the changes between two Git tags into one versioned note.
- Price: Engammo Starter is $29/month for up to 3 repositories with unlimited AI summaries, while ReleasePad's AI drafts are on Pro, at $35 per product per month.

Our Values
Ship What Matters
We focus on solving real problems for engineering teams. We prioritize features based on real problems teams tell us about. We do not build features for the sake of building features. If it does not reduce friction in your release workflow, we do not ship it.
Clarity Over Complexity
Release notes should be clear. Our product should be clear. Our communication should be clear. We avoid jargon, unnecessary configuration, and complex setup processes. If something can be automated, it should be automated.
Developer-First Design
Engammo is built by developers for developers. We understand the frustration of context-switching between coding and documentation. Every design decision prioritizes reducing the time developers spend on non-coding tasks.
Transparent Operations
We maintain a public roadmap, a detailed changelog, and open communication channels because we believe our customers deserve to know where the product is heading. We do not hide behind vague timelines or marketing speak.
Our Vision for AI in Developer Workflows
Eliminate Release Communication Toil
Today, Engammo automates release note generation from GitHub PRs. Tomorrow, we will extend this automation to more platforms, more formats, and more audiences. Our vision is a world where shipping code automatically generates the right communication for the right audience.
AI That Earns Trust
We are building AI that developers trust with their release communication. This means accuracy, consistency, and transparency. Every generated note can be reviewed, edited, and regenerated. We do not aim to replace human judgment. We aim to give humans a better starting point.
Why Teams Trust Engammo
Minimal GitHub Permissions
We request only the GitHub permissions needed to read merged pull requests and, optionally, create version tags. You choose which repositories Engammo can access.
No Source Code Storage
Raw PR diffs are processed in memory and not stored. We store generated release notes, PR metadata, and GitHub webhook events.
Encryption and Access Controls
Data is encrypted in transit and at rest by our infrastructure providers, and access to production systems is limited to the Engammo team.
Public Roadmap and Changelog
We practice the transparency we preach. Our roadmap and changelog are public so you know exactly where the product is heading.

How is Engammo different from a release notes generator?
Release notes generators and Engammo both read merged pull requests and group them by label. Generators usually list PR titles in GitHub Releases or a CHANGELOG.md file. Engammo rewrites each PR in plain language, publishes it outside GitHub and needs no workflow file.
Is Engammo open source?
No. Engammo is not open source at the moment.
Does Engammo have a referral program?
Not at the moment.
How does Engammo handle customer data?
We take data handling seriously. Engammo processes PR metadata and diff excerpts but does not store raw diffs. Data is encrypted in transit and at rest by our infrastructure providers. For full details, see our security page.
