What Stage does

Stage is a code review platform built for both humans and AI agents. As teams ship more AI-generated code, they face a growing backlog of pull requests to review. Stage redesigns the review experience around how engineers naturally read changes so they can understand and approve PRs faster.

Key capabilities

Stage groups changes into small logical "chapters" that match how engineers read pull requests, which the company says lets teams review PRs significantly faster than GitHub's default interface. Comments and approvals are two-way synced with GitHub, and existing status checks, required reviews, and merge rules continue to work as configured, so it layers on top of current workflows rather than replacing them.

Who it's for

Stage is aimed at engineering teams shipping quickly with coding agents who need a faster, clearer way to understand changes and give meaningful feedback. It is backed by Y Combinator.
