Pricing
FreemiumGreptile uses a credit-based pricing model. The Starter plan is free for 1 active developer with unlimited repositories and 50 credits/month (50 standard reviews or ~16 TREX reviews). No credit card required. The Pro plan is $30/seat/month and includes 50 credits per seat, with additional credits available at $1 each. Credits are consumed as follows: 1 credit = 1 standard PR review, 3 credits = 1 TREX runtime review (sandbox test execution). Pro adds team collaboration, admin controls, and access to all Greptile features. Enterprise pricing is custom and adds SSO, audit logs, self-hosted deployment in your own AWS environment, BYOK (bring your own LLM providers), priority support, and dedicated SLAs. Greptile also offers free usage for qualified open-source projects and significant discounts for pre-Series A startups. A Greptile API is available at discounted bulk pricing for teams building on top of Greptile's codebase intelligence.
FreemiumCursor's Hobby plan is free with no credit card required, offering limited Agent requests, limited Tab completions, and access to Composer. Pro costs $20/month and includes extended Agent limits, generous Grok and Composer limits, access to frontier models, MCPs/skills/hooks, cloud agents, and a $20 monthly credit pool for premium model usage. Pro+ costs $60/month with roughly 3x Pro's usage limits and a larger credit pool (~$70). Ultra costs $200/month with about 20x Pro's limits, a ~$400 credit pool, and priority access to new features. Teams Standard costs $40/user/month and adds centralized billing, a team marketplace, Bugbot code reviews, shared cloud agents, usage analytics, team-wide privacy mode, and SAML/OIDC SSO; Teams Premium costs around $120/user/month with roughly 5x Standard's included usage. Enterprise is custom-priced and adds pooled usage, invoice/PO billing, SCIM seat management, repository/model/MCP access controls, audit logs, and an AI code tracking API. Annual billing saves approximately 20% across all paid plans, and all prices are exclusive of applicable taxes.

Greptile Pros & Cons

Pros

  • Deepest codebase context of any code review tool — builds a full graph of files, functions, and dependencies, not just the diff
  • 'Fix with Agent' button uniquely integrates with Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Conductor, and Devin for automated review-fix loops
  • TREX runtime validation (Beta) writes and executes real tests in a sandbox — the only code review tool that actually runs the code
  • Free Starter plan for 1 developer with 50 reviews/month and unlimited repos — genuinely usable with no credit card required
  • Self-hosted and BYOK options for full data sovereignty in air-gapped and regulated environments
  • Trusted by Brex (CTO: 'outperforms them all by a mile'), NVIDIA, Retool, Substack, Scale, PostHog, Mintlify, Zapier, and 22,000+ teams

Cons

  • Credit-based pricing can be unpredictable — TREX runtime reviews cost 3 credits vs 1 for standard reviews, so heavy users of the most valuable feature pay 3x more
  • Pro at $30/seat/month is more expensive than CodeRabbit Pro ($24/user/month) for standard PR review without TREX
  • Founded 2023 by recent graduates — smaller team than competitors like CodeRabbit ($143M raised) despite raising a $30M Series A at $180M valuation
  • Series A reported in talks as of July 2025 but not confirmed closed — some uncertainty around funding timeline
  • Early culture of very long working hours was publicly noted by founder (9am–11pm, 6–7 days/week) — may affect team sustainability

Cursor Pros & Cons

Pros

  • Deep AI-native integration rather than a bolted-on plugin experience
  • Free Hobby tier available with no credit card required
  • Wide model choice across OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and in-house Composer models
  • Autonomous cloud agents can work tasks end-to-end in parallel
  • Privacy Mode guarantees code isn't used for model training when enabled
  • SOC 2 certified with strong enterprise governance and access controls

Cons

  • Credit-based billing means heavy agent or premium-model usage can exceed the base plan quickly
  • Ultra tier is expensive at $200/month for power users
  • As a VS Code fork, some proprietary VS Code extensions may not be fully compatible
  • On-demand overage costs beyond included credits are billed in arrears and can surprise new users
  • Enterprise pricing and invoice billing require contacting sales rather than transparent self-serve rates
