Overview

Graphite is a code review platform built on top of GitHub's APIs. Its review agent analyses every pull request in a connected repository, points at issues and suggests fixes; the documentation says it focuses on real bugs rather than style and reads the whole codebase for context. Around the agent sits the workflow Graphite started with: stacked pull requests, which break a large change into smaller sequenced ones, and a stack-aware merge queue. Plans run from a free Hobby tier to Team at $40 per user per month.

Our take

Graphite suits teams that have decided small, sequential pull requests are the way to ship and want the tooling to stop fighting them, because the stacking workflow and the merge queue are the parts no competitor really replicates. The AI review then rides along on a queue that is already moving rather than being the whole product. The hard constraint is the platform: this is built on GitHub, so a team on GitLab, Bitbucket or Azure DevOps is out before the evaluation starts. The other thing to budget for is the jump between tiers, since unlimited AI review sits on the $40 seat rather than the $20 one, which makes the cheaper plan more of a stacking licence than an AI one.

Features

Where it runs: On the pull request in GitHub, plus a CLI, a VS Code extension, a Mac menu bar app and the Graphite web app
Inline completions: No. Graphite reviews changes and lands them rather than completing code as you type
Agent mode: Yes. A codebase-aware review agent comments on every pull request and suggests fixes, and Cursor Cloud Agents can create and update pull requests without leaving Graphite
Model choice: No model picker. Anthropic and OpenAI act as the AI subprocessors
Data control: Neither Graphite nor its subprocessors use customer data to train their models, AI features ask for approval before they run, and an organisation can email support to block all of them. Enterprise adds SAML and an audit log (SIEM)
Ecosystem fit: Built on GitHub's APIs, with Slack notifications, a VS Code extension and a GT MCP server that lets AI agents drive the Graphite CLI
API: Yes, a REST API with a published OpenAPI specification

Pros and Cons

Strengths

Stacked pull requests and a stack-aware merge queue, not just review comments
Review agent reads the whole codebase and can be tuned to a team's standards
Customer data is not used to train models, and AI features can be blocked entirely
Free tier for personal-account repositories

Limitations

Built on GitHub's APIs, so GitLab, Bitbucket and Azure DevOps are not covered
Unlimited AI reviews and unlimited Graphite Chat only on the $40 Team seat
No inline completions, so it sits alongside a coding assistant rather than replacing one
SAML and audit logging are Enterprise only

No reviews yet. Nothing has been published here yet, and no score is shown. How a review is checked before it appears is described below.

How we check reviews

Reviews are not published yet. The form on a tool's page works and reaches us, but nothing from it appears on this site, so no score here is based on a review. The rules below are the ones that will apply once reviews go live.

Every review is read by a person before it appears. We require a working email address and use it to come back to the author, so a review has a reachable sender rather than being anonymous. We publish positive and negative reviews alike, we pay nothing and offer nothing for a review, and we accept none that was bought or incentivised.

What we cannot do is verify a purchase. There is no shop here and no account, so whether the author really used the tool rests on what they tell us, plus the plausibility of what they write. We say so rather than implying a check that does not exist.

A vendor cannot have a review removed, cannot buy one, and cannot have one changed. Paid placement and a paid listing have no effect on which reviews appear or on any score.
