Scale is excited to lead CodeRabbit’s Series B!
Every developer intimately knows the drudgery of code reviews. Whether you are the person that wrote the code or the person that has to review it, it is tedious, it is slow, and it can silently kill productivity. And in a world where devs are using AI to ship code at lightspeed, the code review process has increasingly become the bottleneck.
CodeRabbit’s founders Harjot and Gur recognized this gap early on. While AI DevTools tools like Claude Code, Cursor, and the like have dramatically changed the code authoring process, developers are still left to their own devices when it comes to certain niches of the SDLC. At the point of the PR, it means that devs are still bogged down in manually parsing line-level changes to catch bugs, review architectural and performance implications, and understand the evolving codebase as a whole. Given where AI is today, this should not be the case.
CodeRabbit solves this problem, and it is already well on the way to transforming developer workflows everywhere. The company’s AI code review agent slots seamlessly into the developer workflow. Integrated directly into GitHub and other version control systems as well as the IDE, it automatically reviews every pull request, surfaces issues, and provides actionable, line-level feedback. Unlike PR tools of days past, the product goes beyond just basic linting or static analysis. It truly understands the broader context of a codebase, identifies subtle logic errors, spots security vulnerabilities, and suggests improvements that align with architectural patterns and company standards. The product’s interface and the AI’s context and expertise are expertly crafted for PR flow specifically, and the magic of the product is reflected in how quickly it has captured developer mindshare.
Since its launch, CodeRabbit’s adoption has been nothing short of explosive. As with most AI markets, there is no shortage of competitors, but it is abundantly clear that CodeRabbit has risen above the pack and is poised to run away with the market. Fast-growing startups and established enterprises alike have flocked to the platform, and the product has quickly become a core part of the modern software development lifecycle. Dev after dev cites the purchase decision as a no-brainer—why would we not use the best-of-breed tool to automate one of the most dreaded parts of our workflow?
We have been incredibly impressed by the team’s vision and their dedication to building a product that has quickly become a must-have for modern engineering teams. They have a deep understanding of the engineering lifecycle and are relentlessly focused on empowering developers to do their best work. They are poised to become an essential part of every SDLC, and we are excited to be on board for the journey!
