CodeRabbit, a company focused on automating code reviews using artificial intelligence, has secured $16 million in Series A funding, bringing its total raised to nearly $20 million. The investment round, led by CRV with participation from Flex Capital and Engineering Capital, will support the expansion of CodeRabbit’s sales, marketing, and product offerings, including enhancements to its security vulnerability analysis capabilities. Founded by Harjot Gill and Gur Singh, CodeRabbit’s AI-driven platform aims to improve code quality by providing actionable feedback to developers, automating what has traditionally been a time-consuming and manual process.

Gill, who previously served as the senior director of technology at Nutanix, believes that CodeRabbit’s platform offers a significant improvement over traditional static analysis tools and peer reviews. He claims that the AI models employed by CodeRabbit can understand the intent behind code and provide human-like feedback, reducing the need for manual intervention. Despite these claims, concerns about the effectiveness of AI in code reviews persist. Studies and anecdotal evidence, including internal experiments by Greg Foster of Graphite, suggest that AI-driven code reviews often produce false positives and may lack the nuanced understanding that human reviewers provide.

Nevertheless, CodeRabbit has already attracted around 600 paying customers and is conducting pilots with several Fortune 500 companies. The company plans to use the new funding to further develop its platform, including integrating with tools like Jira and Slack and introducing advanced AI automation for tasks such as dependency management, code refactoring, and unit test generation. Additionally, CodeRabbit is expanding its operations with a new office in Bangalore and aims to double its team size.
