I think automated style checkers are great too. One problem I have with them is it fails the build, which has poor locality with the problem. Instead, I wanted the failures to actually comment on the line of code. That's why I wrote an automatic style checker to do that. You can run without having it baked into the company process (just from the CLI), which was important for me at the time. You can find it here: https://github.com/justinabrahms/imhotep

I also wrote a service version of it at https://betterdiff.com/. One relies on the other, so the CLI app will have the same feature set, just not automatic. Several people use the CLI app from jenkins or similar. :)
