Frequently Asked Questions
Absolutely! They complement each other perfectly. Use Copilot for real-time coding assistance in your IDE, and RepoBird for autonomous issue resolution and PR generation.
RepoBird uses Claude Code (Anthropic), while Copilot uses GPT-4 (OpenAI). Both are state-of-the-art models, but RepoBird's advantage comes from its autonomous agent architecture and cloud execution environment.
RepoBird is ideal for small teams because it multiplies your capacity without requiring more developers. One developer can manage multiple RepoBird agents, effectively scaling the team's output.
