Graphite review and pricing

Modern stacked pull-request workflow for fast-shipping teams.

By Graphite · Founded 2020 · San Francisco, CA · private

Graphite is the modern stacked-PR code review tool, founded 2020 by ex-Airbnb engineers and last raising a $52M Series B in 2024 led by Tiger Global (reported total funding around $80M). The product layers on top of GitHub and gives engineering teams the stacked-pull-request workflow that Meta, Google, and Stripe use internally, plus a faster web review surface and a CLI (gt) that automates stack management. Strengths: cleanest stacked-PR workflow in the category, strong CLI, VS Code extension, fast web app that loads diffs noticeably faster than GitHub native, and a credible push into AI-assisted review with Diamond. Trade-offs: per-developer pricing on top of an existing GitHub bill (most buyers feel the second invoice), the stacked workflow demands a change in how engineers structure work (real adoption cost), and the AI features ship under aggressive marketing that overstates the depth of the actual analysis on independent benchmarks.

Visit Graphite Vendor pricing Compare to Reviewable
Best for

Engineering teams that ship many small, dependent changes and want a real stacked-PR workflow on GitHub. Particularly strong for platform, infrastructure, and core-product teams at fast-shipping startups and scaleups (50 to 1,000 engineers).

Worst for

Teams on GitLab or Bitbucket, teams shipping infrequent large PRs (stacking is overkill), regulated buyers needing self-hosted review, or buyers unwilling to layer a second per-seat bill on top of GitHub.

Trust signal log
  • 2024-04-09
    Graphite raised $52M Series B led by Tiger Global
    Reported total funding around $80M; positions Graphite as the modern stacked-PR review leader with multi-year product runway.
  • 2024-09-12
    Diamond AI review assist launched
    AI-driven review commentary positioned aggressively; decent on common issues, independent benchmarks show modest signal on complex multi-file PRs.
  • 2025-02-18
    Used at Stripe, Shopify, Hashicorp publicly
    Customer references at engineering-heavy organizations strengthen the stacked-PR-at-scale story.
Vendor Trust is scored independently of product quality. A great product from an unfair vendor still earns a low trust score.
