Claims

  • [verified]

    CodeRabbit raised a $60M Series B in September 2025, led by Scale Venture Partners (with NVentures, CRV, Harmony Partners, Flex Capital, Engineering Capital, Pelion Venture Partners), at a $550M post-money valuation

    Consistent across the company's own press release and independent press coverage.

  • [verified]

    Total funding raised is $88M, including a $16M Series A led by CRV in August 2024 (with Datadog CEO Olivier Pomel as an angel)

    $16M Series A (Aug 2024) plus $60M Series B (Sept 2025) plus an earlier seed round adds to the $88M total cited by Sacra.

  • [verified]

    As of September 2025, CodeRabbit had 8,000+ paying customers and 100,000+ open-source projects on the platform, with named customers Chegg, Groupon, Life360, and Mercury

    Figure is company-reported in its own press release; not independently audited, but specific and dated.

  • [verified]

    A security research team found a critical RCE vulnerability in CodeRabbit (unsandboxed Rubocop integration) that exposed leaked API keys, the GitHub App private key, and database credentials, putting roughly 1 million connected repositories (including private ones) at risk of compromise

    Disclosed to CodeRabbit January 24, 2025; fix confirmed deployed January 30, 2025. This is a real security incident, not a marketing claim, and is material to any trust/security posture claims the company makes.

  • [plausible]

    CodeRabbit ranks #1 by F1 score (51.2%, precision 49.2%, recall 53.5%) among AI code review tools on Martian's Code Review Bench, an independent benchmark covering nearly 300,000 real pull requests

    Benchmark is run by Martian, a third party not selling code review tools, and is open-sourced/updated daily, which supports credibility. Not independently re-run by this record; CodeRabbit's own blog post is the source used to relay the numbers, though the benchmark site itself corroborates the ranking.

  • [plausible]

    CodeRabbit holds the #1 most-installed AI app position on GitHub Marketplace, connected to 2 million+ repositories with 13 million+ pull requests processed (as of ~April 2026)

    Repeated across multiple secondary sources (aggregator/review sites) but ultimately traces back to company self-reporting; GitHub does not publish a public installs leaderboard to independently confirm the #1 ranking.

  • [thin]

    CodeRabbit reached $40M ARR in April 2026, up 700% year-over-year from ~$5M ARR in April 2025, following $15M+ ARR in September 2025 (10x YoY growth cited then)

    These figures trace to Sacra's analyst estimates, not a direct company disclosure. CodeRabbit's own September 2025 press release cites '10x revenue growth' but does not state a specific ARR dollar figure. Treat as an estimate, not a confirmed number.

  • [contradicted]

    CodeRabbit's current headcount

    Sources disagree sharply: GetLatka reports 24 employees (Dec 2024), PitchBook reports 176, Tracxn reports 246 (June 2026), while CodeRabbit's own Sept 2025 press release says headcount 'more than 2x'd in under a quarter' with plans to double again by early 2026. No single authoritative figure. Separately, GetLatka's profile also claims CodeRabbit 'raised $0 in capital' and reached profitability without external funding, which directly contradicts the well-documented $88M in Series A/B funding above, a data-quality red flag consistent with prior GetLatka errors seen on other companies in this record.

Gaps

  • No independently confirmed current headcount figure.
  • No company-disclosed (vs. analyst-estimated) ARR figure for 2026.
  • Exact founding date beyond 'early 2023' not pinned to a specific month.
  • No independent audit of the Groupon case study (86 hours to 39 minutes review-to-production), which appears only in CodeRabbit's own press release.
