CodeRabbit vs Hyrax
CodeRabbit judges the change.
Hyrax makes it.
CodeRabbit is the change-management layer: it triages incoming PRs, explains large diffs, reviews code, and its Security product monitors shipped code and proposes fixes. It scales your team's judgment. Hyrax does the work itself: audits the repo across six categories, writes the fix, verifies it in 13 steps, and ships the PR.
Hyrax runs on roughly 400 of our own repositories.
Free plan: full access, up to 100 PR reviews a month for free, a $30 starter credit, and $10/month ongoing.

The difference
Same surface area. Hyrax does the work.
- Triages, explains, and reviews changes others propose
- Security monitors shipped code and proposes fixes
- Codebase monitoring is security-scoped
- $24/dev/month, auto-charges per collaborator
- Proposes the change: finds, fixes, verifies, ships
- Audits six categories, not security alone
- 13-step verification before any PR opens
- Creates PR, closes Linear ticket automatically
Feature comparison
Everything CodeRabbit does, plus the execution it doesn't.
The edge CodeRabbit misses
A fix isn't done until it's verified.
CodeRabbit stops at a suggestion or a scoped patch. Every Hyrax fix runs a 13-step verification before it can merge. Baseline tests are established first, the fix is applied, and the full pipeline confirms nothing else broke. Nothing ships on trust.

FAQ
Questions about switching from CodeRabbit.
Yes, and the split is clean. CodeRabbit manages the flood of incoming changes: triage, explanations, review. Hyrax generates the outgoing ones: audits, verified fixes, merge-ready PRs. One scales judgment, the other does the work.
CodeRabbit's Security product monitors shipped code for vulnerabilities and sends proposed fixes back through the review workflow. That's real, and it's security-scoped. Hyrax audits six categories (security, correctness, maintainability, performance, architecture, operations) and every fix passes 13-step verification, including your own test suite, before a PR opens.
CodeRabbit's category for governing AI-generated changes: Triage scores and routes incoming PRs, Change Stack explains large diffs in layers, and Security monitors the shipped codebase. It's a control layer for changes someone else proposes. Hyrax is the fix layer: it proposes them, verified and ready to merge.
Its Security product does: it continuously monitors shipped code for vulnerabilities and verifies reachability. That monitoring is security-only. Hyrax's continuous audit covers all six categories and ships verified fixes for what it finds, not just security findings.
