About Openchangelog

OpenChangelog is an AI-powered platform that automatically generates and manages professional, categorized changelogs for GitHub and GitLab projects. By analyzing commits, pull requests, and issues, it produces accurate, human‑readable release notes (e.g., Added, Fixed, Changed) that you can customize with templates and versioning rules like SemVer. With a native GitHub App integration, multi-repo support, real-time previews, and outputs in Markdown, HTML, or JSON, OpenChangelog streamlines releases for developers, maintainers, and teams—without storing your code.
