What Greptile does

Greptile reviews pull requests with full context of the codebase. Top YC companies like PostHog, Raycast, Vouch, Podium, and YC's own internal software team use Greptile to review millions of changes every week. When companies start using Greptile, they catch more bugs and merge PRs 4x faster, on average Greptile can be used via the cloud, or be hosted 100% on your cloud in an air-gapped VPC.

AI code review agent with full codebase context

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We built an AI agent that reviews pull requests in repositories with full awareness of the entire codebase. Unlike existing tools that look at only diffs or small code snippets, Greptile understands full context so it can catch subtle bugs and suggest meaningful improvements. Teams at companies like PostHog and Raycast use Greptile to speed up code reviews and improve code quality. We support cloud and fully air-gapped VPC hosting to meet security needs.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live in San Francisco, CA, and Greptile is based here as well. After YC, we plan to continue operating in San Francisco.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco is where we all live and where our early users are concentrated. Being in this tech hub helps us build the right relationships and recruit engineers familiar with developer tools and AI.
