San Francisco just got a little louder, and not because another delivery robot jammed an intersection. Greptile, the AI code reviewer that refuses to skim the surface, just locked down a $25 million Series A led by Benchmark Capital with Eric Vishria taking a seat on the board. Returning believers Y Combinator, Initialized Capital, and angel Cory Levy doubled down, stacking the company’s total haul to about $29.1 million since 2023. For a team that once toyed with scraping Reddit reviews, finding themselves at the center of one of the most competitive corners of AI speaks volumes.
The founders, Daksh Gupta, Soohoon Choi, and Vaishant Kameswaran, are all Georgia Tech alums who turned academic excellence into commercial firepower. Gupta, now CEO, brought discipline from Amazon and Qualcomm. Choi, the CTO, applied his mathematics and computer science foundation to architect scale. Kameswaran, who built experience at HubSpot and Amazon, sharpened the AI edge now defining Greptile v3. From a small office at 2001 Van Ness Avenue, the trio has built a product trusted by over 1,000 software teams, including more than 500 paying customers from Stripe, Substack, Brex, PostHog, Bilt, Amazon, and even Y Combinator itself.
Greptile’s numbers slap. In just one month before the raise, the platform reviewed more than 500 million lines of code. Its benchmarks crush the field, catching bugs at an 82 percent rate versus Cursor at 58 percent, Copilot at 54, CodeRabbit at 44, and Graphite at a bleak 6. In recent months alone, the system stopped over 180,000 bugs from ever seeing production. Those aren’t vanity metrics. That’s time, money, and customer trust preserved.
The edge lies in how Greptile works. Competitors peek at diffs. Greptile consumes the full codebase, remembers a team’s quirks, and feeds context-aware feedback that adapts over time. It plugs directly into GitHub and GitLab, offers click-to-accept code fixes, and spins out PR summaries complete with mermaid diagrams. It’s compliant with SOC 2 Type II and can flex into enterprise environments without forcing devs to change how they work. Think of it less as a tool and more as an extension of the engineering brain.
Series A money isn’t going toward champagne showers. It’s fueling Greptile v3, a total rewrite of its architecture designed to triple accuracy, integrate deeper with systems like Jira and Notion, and expand the Greptile MCP Server for coding agent workflows. In a market expected to reach $3.2 billion by 2033, this round positions Gupta, Choi, and Kameswaran to scale without compromise.
