    ReviewStage

    Stage was created to make human code review faster and more understandable as AI-generated pull requests proliferate. Its hosted product reorganized pull requests into ordered, contextual chapters, while its open-source tools bring the chapters experience to local code and coding-agent workflows.

    Stage hosted platform
    April 30, 2026

    AI-powered GitHub code-review platform that groups pull-request changes into logical chapters, orders them for comprehension, explains what changed, highlights review focus and risk, and syncs comments and approvals with GitHub. The hosted service was scheduled to sunset July 31, 2026.

    Stage CLI and stage-chapters skill
    2026

    Free, open-source local tool distributed through npm and an agent-skill installer. It organizes local changes into reviewable chapters, opens a browser UI, supports local diffs and GitHub pull requests, and works with any AI agent.

    Luke
    2026

    Open-source macOS 14+ Apple-silicon app for planning features by voice before handing work to a coding agent. Luke reads a selected code folder through sandboxed read-only commands, asks clarifying questions, streams a structured plan, and lets the user copy the plan into Claude Code, Codex, or another agent.

    Market Position

    Stage positioned itself as a human-centered alternative to conventional GitHub review and automated review bots: rather than only flagging surface-level bugs, it reorganized changes into readable chapters with context and review prompts so humans could understand and approve AI-generated code faster. The open-source CLI extended that differentiated chapter-based workflow to local changes and any coding agent, while Luke addressed the adjacent feature-planning step before implementation.

    Founding Story

    Charles Pan and Dean Stratakos met in their first Stanford class, later attended classes together, worked at Five Rings Capital, and became roommates in New York. While Pan was an early engineer at Yuzu Health in late 2025, they saw coding agents dramatically increase code production while creating a pull-request review backlog; they started Stage to rebuild code review around how engineers naturally understand changes, like reading chapters of a book rather than an unstructured diff.

    Business Model

    Revenue Model

    The hosted Stage service used paid subscriptions after a free trial; its terms describe recurring subscriptions, and the YC launch offered a free first 14 days. The hosted service was later sunset and subscriptions were canceled. The Stage CLI is free and open source; Luke is distributed as an open-source Apache-2.0 macOS app.

    Pricing Tiers

    Stage trial
    Free for 14 days

    The YC launch post said Stage was free for the first 14 days; it also advertised a launch promotion of 25% off for three months.

    Private company; no IPO plan was identified. The hosted Stage product was announced as sunsetting July 31, 2026, while the company continued its open-source tooling and Luke product line.
