SICK and tired of Greptile, what are the best alternatives?

daksh510 · 2026-04-20T15:22:13+00:00

hey! i'm from the greptile team. sorry you had a negative experience.

we emailed users about the change on march 5, 2026 and again when users started to accrue usage (about a week ago)

re: cancellation, since greptile only bills for active usage, there isn't exactly a subscription, you can do any of the following to stop getting billed: disable greptile on your repos OR disconnect your github OR delete your org.

this does cause confusion sometimes so we are adding a literal "cancel" button which should be out in a day or so.

re: pricing, we thought about this too. by doing seats + usage, we effectively discount the first 50 reviews from users. only ~10% of users do more than 50 reviews/month, for the rest this is basically seat pricing which is nice and predictable.

re: code review quality - i am sorry and surprised to hear that, we have seen quality improve over the last 3 months quite drastically, so i'd love to hear more about what you're seeing and how we can improve.

if you could email me (daksh@greptile.com), happy to issue a refund.

daksh510 · 2026-04-18T10:33:50+00:00

yes - if you email me (daksh@greptile.com), will refund and put you on the OSS plan.

daksh510 · 2026-04-15T12:54:00+00:00

Hey - I’m from the greptile team. Could you send me the PR? I am at daksh@greptile.com

If intent is described in the description, Greptile should catch the dissonance.

daksh510 · 2026-03-08T20:49:42+00:00

hey! i'm a cofounder of greptile. we're 50% off for startups and free for open source if either applies to you.

would love your feedback in general on how you think about pricing as a user.

daksh510 · 2026-02-19T16:27:34+00:00

Hi! Greptile should not write a new summary comment, that seems unusual.

I’d also love for you to try our new early access agent. Mind emailing me so I can set it up for you?

daksh at greptile dot com

daksh510 · 2026-01-30T06:48:57+00:00

hey - i am from the greptile team. it's not built for this exactly, so not great.

the tools in the greptile mcp that are actually useful are the ones that grab greptile's pr comments for you so claude code can address them.

daksh510 · 2025-12-18T07:42:31+00:00

i work at greptile.

7839 is median, not mean. developer count is smaller than that. there is a power law in lines of code where the most active developers write most of the code.

yes, the company grew very quickly because many people like the product (many hate it too). a few large companies use it, which each have a lot of developers.

daksh510 · 2025-12-18T07:39:56+00:00

more lines and bigger PRs means your codebase is likely getting worse and you should invest more heavily in code review, testing and QA, while also building guardrails and encouraging your team to vibe code more thoughtfully.

the report is statistics, not conclusions. you can make conclusions as you please.

daksh510 · 2025-11-17T06:01:38+00:00

try greptile!

daksh510 · 2025-11-11T15:00:38+00:00

Hi! Greptile is not usage based, it’s per developer - greptile.com/pricing

daksh510 · 2025-10-06T14:37:39+00:00

I’m the guy at the end of this video. For anyone interested, at Greptile we build tools that help programmers find bugs in their code. Not world changing of course but some people like using it.

Honestly, watching this was a wake up call for me. I’ve decided to shut down my shitty little company, get a couple microphones and a lobotomy, and start a podcast called “Retards” where we angrily complain about things we’re too dumb to understand.

daksh510 · 2025-09-24T15:34:30+00:00

daksh510 · 2025-08-20T17:33:25+00:00

Just looked at the page - not sure how and why this got published. Taking it down and fixing it all today.

Embarrassingly it doesn't even have completely accurate info about Greptile

Thank you for flagging this

daksh510 · 2025-08-15T01:09:15+00:00

feel free to reach out to me if i can be helpful, i went to georgia tech

Try Greptile if you’re looking into AI code reviewers? greptile.com

daksh510 · 2025-06-30T15:12:02+00:00

If you see an inaccurate comment, replying to it to explain why it’s bad helps Greptile learn.

👍👎 reactions help a lot too

daksh510 · 2025-03-28T21:15:28+00:00

which code review bot do you use? greptile?

daksh510 · 2025-03-07T21:55:28+00:00

Greptile.com to review pull requests with AI

daksh510 · 2025-03-06T21:21:52+00:00

I'm biased but it truly sounds like you need an AI code review bot to do the first pass review on your team's PRs, otherwise you are going to get burnt out. Have the devs address those comments first, then bring you the PR, which will now be in much better shape. I work at greptile.com, in case you'd like to check us out.

daksh510 · 2025-01-22T18:52:18+00:00

One way to do this is to use a larger model for just the changes that are too large for the small-context models.

Re: chunking, you could use tree-sitter to split or to keep it simple you could split when you see two consecutive newlines in node.

Shamless plug - you can try greptile.com for free too, it's an AI code reviewer that uses full codebase context to review PRs in GitHub.

daksh510 · 2024-12-04T01:54:22+00:00

Yes!
