Category Standard

CodeRabbit is a verified market leader in AI-driven code reviews, having recently raised a Series B (Sep 2025) at a $550M valuation with over $15M in ARR. The platform serves 8,000+ organizations and 100,000+ open-source projects. While the submission text was low-effort (claiming 'everyone' as the audience), the underlying business metrics indicate a 'unicorn-scale' trajectory with exceptional utility and traction, justifying a high score despite the poor response quality.
