# Leaderboard

> Track and visualize team performance

The **Leaderboard** highlights the most active contributors in your repository based on their review and comment activity.
It helps teams recognize participation, identify key reviewers, and ensure review responsibilities are balanced.

***

## How it works

Each member’s activity is broken down into three metrics:

* **Comments** – the number of review comments left by the contributor.
* **Reviews** – the number of completed pull request reviews.
* **Activity score** – a weighted score combining reviews and comments.

```
Activity score = (2 × Reviews) + Comments
```

Reviews are given double weight because they typically require more effort than individual comments.

## Why it matters

* **Recognize contributions** – surface active reviewers and acknowledge their work.
* **Spot imbalances** – if review work is concentrated in a few members, redistribute to reduce bottlenecks.
* **Encourage healthy practices** – visibility into review activity fosters accountability and shared responsibility.

## Best practices

* Use the leaderboard to celebrate **top reviewers**, but also check for **imbalances** that may signal review overload.
* Encourage contributors with lower activity to join reviews, spreading knowledge more evenly.
* Track leaderboard trends over time to see whether review load is becoming more balanced.

PullRule’s Leaderboard makes review activity transparent, helping teams ensure **fair participation** and avoid over-reliance on a handful of contributors.
