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.
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 code reviewer that understands your entire codebase — merge 4x faster
AI coding assistant with deep context across your entire codebase
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
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
