Agentic Index
CodeRabbit vs Graphite (2026)
CodeRabbit is an AI reviewer; Graphite is a review workflow platform with an AI reviewer inside. CodeRabbit drops into your existing pull request flow and starts commenting, from 12 dollars. Graphite changes the flow itself: stacked pull requests, a stack aware merge queue, and Graphite Agent for review and conversational fixes, at 20 to 40 dollars per user.

Choose CodeRabbit if
- You want AI review without changing how your team ships; installation is the whole migration.
- GitLab support matters; Graphite centers on GitHub.
- Lower per seat cost across a large team is decisive.
Choose Graphite if
- Review latency is your bottleneck, and stacked pull requests attack the root cause.
- The merge queue keeps trunk green without engineers sequencing merges by hand.
- You want feedback tuned by accept and reject signals plus fixes applied in chat.
Graphite operates as its own product under Anysphere, the maker of Cursor, following a December 2025 acquisition.
