Pricing
FreemiumCodeRabbit offers a 14-day free trial with no credit card required, and a permanent free plan for open-source projects. The IDE extension (VS Code, Cursor, Windsurf) is free for all users.
The Pro plan costs $24/user/month (billed annually) or $30/user/month (monthly), and includes agentic PR and CLI reviews, 1-click fixes, learnings, agent loops, up to 5 MCP connections, pre-merge checks, agentic chat, linter/SAST integration, and Jira/Linear integrations. Pro Plus is $48/user/month (annual) and adds multi-repo analysis (up to 10 repos), custom pre-merge checks (up to 20), finishing touches (unit test generation, merge conflict resolution), post-merge actions, issue planner, and higher rate limits (10 PR reviews/hour). CodeRabbit Security is a separate add-on at $40/user/month for continuous repository scanning and per-PR security review. The CodeRabbit Slack Agent is usage-based at $0.50/agent-minute.
Enterprise pricing is custom and includes all Pro Plus features plus custom RBAC, SSO/SAML, audit logs, API access, self-hosting, multi-org support, SLA support, dedicated CSM, EU SaaS deployment, and AWS/GCP/Claude marketplace billing.
EnterpriseSourcegraph Cody previously offered three tiers: Cody Free (unlimited autocomplete, 200 chat messages/month), Cody Pro ($9\u2013$19/user/month), and Cody Enterprise. On July 23, 2025, Sourcegraph permanently discontinued the Free and Pro plans, consolidating Cody as an enterprise-only product.
Cody Enterprise is the sole remaining plan, reported at approximately $59/user/month on an annual contract. Some bundled Sourcegraph platform packages start around $16,000/year with included AI-feature credits. All pricing is negotiated directly with Sourcegraph's sales team and varies by organization size, deployment model, and contract length.
Enterprise includes admin-selectable LLMs (Claude, GPT, Gemini), SOC 2 Type II compliance, SAML SSO, RBAC, audit logs, full Sourcegraph platform integration (Code Search, Batch Changes, Code Insights), self-hosted or BYO cloud deployment for air-gapped environments, and guaranteed no training on customer code. Individual developers can use Sourcegraph's separate Amp product (currently free) as an alternative.

Summary
The AI control layer for code review, triage, explainability, and security
AI coding assistant with deep context across your entire codebase
CodeRabbit Pros & Cons
Pros
- Pioneer and market leader in AI code review — first to market, 17,000+ customers, 2M+ reviews/week, most installed AI app on GitHub and GitLab
- NVIDIA's Jensen Huang uses it company-wide — the strongest possible enterprise validation signal
- Free for all open-source projects — $10M committed over next 12 months to keep OSS features free
- Uniquely loops with AI coding agents (Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, Gemini) for fully automated review-fix cycles
- Agentic Change Management covers the full governance lifecycle: Review, Triage, Change Stack, and Security in one platform
- Revenue grew 5x+ year-over-year with $143M Series C at $1.5B valuation in August 2026
Cons
- No free permanent commercial tier — only a 14-day trial and free access for open-source projects
- Pro plan at $24/user/month (annual) adds up quickly for larger teams compared to per-repo pricing models
- Primary focus is code review/governance rather than inline autocomplete or code generation — not a Copilot replacement
- Rate limits on Pro (5 PR reviews/hour) and Pro Plus (10/hour) may constrain teams with very high PR velocity
- CLI and IDE reviews are newer additions — not as mature as the core PR review feature
Sourcegraph Cody Pros & Cons
Pros
- Best-in-class multi-repository context — retrieves relevant code from across entire enterprise codebases, not just the open file
- Deep integration with Sourcegraph Code Search, Code Navigation, and Batch Changes for a unified code intelligence platform
- Admin-level LLM flexibility — choose Claude, GPT, or Gemini per use case without being locked to one model provider
- Guaranteed no-training on customer code with SOC 2 Type II, self-hosted, and air-gapped deployment options
- Trusted by over 1M engineers at Databricks, Plaid, Uber, Lyft, Reddit, GE, Dropbox, and Fortune 500 companies
- Engineers report saving 5–6 hours per week and writing code 2x faster according to Sourcegraph customer data
Cons
- Cody Free and Pro discontinued July 2025 — no self-serve individual tier; enterprise procurement via sales only
- Pricing starts at ~$59/user/month on annual contract, significantly more expensive than GitHub Copilot or Cursor for small teams
- Multi-repo context only works for codebases indexed in your Sourcegraph instance — disconnected repos are invisible to Cody
- No bring-your-own-key (BYOK) model access for individual users — model selection is admin-controlled at the enterprise level
- Requires Sourcegraph platform deployment — not a lightweight plugin for teams not already running Sourcegraph
- Sales-led procurement only adds friction for teams that want to trial the product quickly without a contract
