Our mission at Graphite is to accelerate every software team by giving them best-in-class tooling for creating, reviewing, and merging code. Today, we’re excited to announce Graphite for Startups, a new program that makes Graphite more accessible than ever. Graphite for Startups gives early-stage companies and OSS projects access to our full Standard plan feature set for free, including unlimited stacking, insights, automations, and our stack-aware merge queue. Any startup with 10 or fewer org members on GitHub is eligible — just sign up for a Graphite Standard annual plan and we’ll automatically detect your org’s eligibility and activate your free subscription.

Today, Graphite is trusted by many of the fastest-moving enterprise-scale software teams in the world, such as Snowflake, Asana, Figma, and Ramp. When we built the first version of Graphite 2.5 years ago, however, we were a 6-person team that just wanted an internal tool to ship faster and spend less time blocked on code review. These beginnings are what inspired us to make Graphite as accessible as possible for early-stage teams. Having the right developer tools and processes from day 1 can make a meaningful difference in your company’s trajectory, and stacking can be a force multiplier when bandwidth is tight. Even on small teams, engineers spend hours every week blocked on code review — hours that matter when you’re trying to iterate quickly and find product-market fit. Graphite for Startups gives every early-stage team a power tool that helps them ship fast and scale quickly — and hopefully outgrow the program along the way.

We’re not stopping with early-stage companies — we’re also announcing Graphite for Open Source, which extends the same benefits as Graphite for Startups to maintainers of open source projects. Graphite relies on the incredible work of open source contributors (all the way down to git itself), and we want to give back to the OSS community by giving them the same powerful tooling as the top closed-source teams. There’s no limit on how many contributors a project can have — any open source project can sign up and start stacking.

Startups and OSS projects with 10 or fewer GitHub org members can join the program immediately — just sign up for a Graphite Standard annual plan and we’ll automatically detect your org’s eligibility and activate your free subscription.

If you’re a maintainer of a larger OSS project, please contact us and share your project’s GitHub org, website (if applicable), and description of what you’re building. We’ll review your submission and reach out with instructions to redeem the discount. Please note that Graphite for Open Source is intended for OSS projects that otherwise couldn’t afford to pay for a Graphite plan — if you’re a venture-backed “open core” company with more than 10 GitHub org members you can try our Standard plan for free for 4 weeks.
