To me it looks like something that could be used to implement Gerrit, but it doesn't come close to what Gerrit offers, having used it for a few years now. Gerrit is excellent at what it does.

I like Gerrit features, but it always seemed too complicated to integrate into usual coding workflow, especially with people always even complaining about git being "hard to use". This tools seems simpler compared to Gerrit, and more flexible compared to GitHub pull requests.

I would appreciate advices on introducing Gerrit to my team and make it somehow transparent in development workflow.

I wrote about Gerrit a few years ago:

I recorded a video showing how it worked together:

Once you understand the workflow it's actually easy to adopt. The biggest challenge is getting people to think in terms of push requests instead of pull requests. If you configure the remote as "git config push HEAD:refs/for/master" then it becomes as simple as doing "git push" to upload changes.
