AI startup Greptile is reportedly raising a $30 million Series A at a $180M valuation, with Benchmark leading the round. Founded by 22-year-old Dasksh Gupta post-Georgia Tech and fresh out of Y Combinator’s 2024 batch, the startup is betting big on AI-driven code reviews. Its bot reviews code like a senior engineer, spotting bugs humans may miss. But Greptile isn’t just pushing boundaries in tech—it’s also under fire for its intense work culture. Gupta himself admits there’s “no work-life balance,” with employees grinding 9 am to 11 pm. The ambition is undeniable, but the pressure? That’s the price some startups pay chasing top spot.
