Graphite Diamond is a full platform play — stacked PRs, a custom PR inbox, AI review, merge queues. If your team has already adopted Graphite's workflow and relies on stacked PRs heavily, the bundled AI review is a reasonable add-on. But if you just want AI code review with a human gate, you're paying $40/dev/mo for features you don't use. PullLight is purpose-built: PR review, human approval, $20/team.
Graphite is the right tool for teams that have bought into the stacked PR workflow. If your developers already use Graphite's CLI to manage stacked branches, the Diamond plan's AI review is a natural extension of the toolchain. The sub-5% negative feedback claim is credible — Graphite has invested heavily in signal quality.
The problem is the all-or-nothing nature of the platform. To use Graphite's AI review, your team needs to adopt Graphite's PR inbox and workflow. That's a different kind of investment than installing a GitHub App. And at ~$40/dev/mo, you're paying for a lot of features before the AI review even loads.
PullLight is narrower and cheaper. It installs in 5 minutes as a GitHub App, works entirely in the GitHub UI your team already uses, and costs $20/mo regardless of headcount. If stacked PRs aren't central to your workflow, there's no reason to pay $40/dev/mo for them.
No install required. Paste a PR URL or raw diff — Claude analyzes it and returns structured findings instantly.
