Greptile is a great product and I hope you succeed.

However, I disagree that independence is a competitive advantage. If it’s true that having a “firewall” between the coding agent and review agent leads to better code, I don’t see why a company like Cursor can’t create full independence between their coding and review products but still bundle them together for distribution.

Furthermore, there might well be benefits to not being fully independent. Imagine if an external auditor was brought in to review every decision made inside your company. There would likely be many things they simply don’t understand. Many decisions in code might seem irrational to an external standalone entity but make sense in the broader context of the organization’s goals. In this sense, I’m concerned that fully independent code review might miss the forest for the trees relative to a bundled product.

Again, I’m rooting for you guys. But I think this is food for thought.
