Helipad – PR Review Dashboard

A lightweight macOS panel that shows which pull requests need your review or attention in real-time. Developers can multitask across multiple team PRs without losing track of what needs their input.

GitHub's own notification system is notoriously noisy and PR review fatigue is a real, documented complaint in engineering teams, so a dedicated ambient display layer has genuine workflow justification. The closest substitute is Gitify, a free open-source menubar app that already handles GitHub notifications on macOS with a loyal user base — that's a direct ceiling on willingness to pay. A $500–2k/mo revenue band implies somewhere between 50 and 200 paying users at a $10/mo price point, which is plausible but thin, and realistically requires either a team/seat pricing model or deeper integrations to push past the low end. The biggest risk is that free tools like Gitify and native GitHub notification improvements keep eating the addressable market before enough paying users convert.
