How they differ

Both are AI reviewers that comment on your pull requests. CodeRabbit (82) is the zero-setup option: install the app and it reviews every PR on GitHub or GitLab, with IDE and CLI reviews too. Greptile (79) first builds a graph index of your whole repository, then runs a swarm of agents on each PR and posts comments in about 3 minutes. It learns from your team’s thumbs-up/down and replies, lets you pick a review depth (Base, Plus, Apex or Auto), and works with GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket and Gitea.

What you pay

CodeRabbit is free for public and open-source repos; private repos start at Essentials, $24 per user a month billed annually ($30 monthly), then Team at $48 annual ($60 monthly) and Advanced at $72. Greptile Starter is free for 1 active developer with 50 credits a month. Pro has no seat fees: you prepay for credits at $1 each, shared across your whole organization, with unlimited developers. A Base review costs 1 credit, Plus 3 and Apex 10. Greptile is free for qualified non-commercial OSS projects (by application), and pre-Series A startups get 500 free credits a month for 6 months.

The math for a small team

On Greptile Pro you pay for reviews, not people: 100 Base reviews a month cost about $100 whether 3 or 10 developers open the PRs, and Plus or Apex reviews cost 3 or 10 times as much. Credits come from a shared organization pool, and auto-review can run on every push, so an agent that pushes often can use credits fast; set a flex usage limit (it can be $0) to cap spend. CodeRabbit Essentials for 3 users is $72 a month billed annually.

Working with coding agents

Greptile has a CLI, an MCP server, a Claude Code plugin and a “Fix with your Agent” button that sends each comment to Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or Devin, plus a /greploop flow that lets an agent iterate until issues are resolved. Its TREX beta runs the PR branch in a sandbox to find runtime bugs. Enterprise adds self-hosting (Docker Compose, Kubernetes, air-gapped).

Which to pick

CodeRabbit for open-source repos or a solo builder who wants reviews on every PR with no setup. Greptile if you want deeper reviews that use the whole codebase, a review loop your coding agent can read and fix, Bitbucket or Gitea support, or a self-hosted option on Enterprise.

Who wins: Greptile or CodeRabbit?

By score, CodeRabbit wins Greptile vs CodeRabbit at 82/100 vs 79/100. CodeRabbit: Zero-setup PR reviews and free for OSS. Per-dev pricing for private repos. Greptile: Strong, codebase-aware PR reviews with tiered depth, learning from team feedback and good hooks for coding agents (MCP, Claude Code plugin, Fix with your Agent). Below CodeRabbit for vibe coders: the free plan covers only one developer and 50 credits, Pro has no seat fees but bills $1 per credit from a shared pool (deeper Plus/Apex reviews burn 3-10 credits, and auto-review on every push adds up), OSS use needs an application, and self-hosting is Enterprise-only. CodeRabbit is best for Automatic AI review on every pull request. Greptile is best for Teams that want deeper, codebase-aware PR reviews and a review loop their coding agents can read and fix.
