Vaishant Kameswaran is an American technology entrepreneur and software engineer. He is the co-founder and chief technology officer (CTO) of Greptile, an artificial intelligence company that builds automated code review tools for software engineering teams. Greptile was part of Y Combinator's Winter 2024 cohort and is based in San Francisco, California.[1]

Early life and education

Kameswaran attended the Georgia Institute of Technology, where he studied computer science. While at Georgia Tech, he participated in the university's CREATE-X Startup Launch program, an entrepreneurship initiative that supports student-led ventures. It was through CREATE-X that Kameswaran and his co-founders initially developed an AI shopping assistant called Tabnam before pivoting to software development tools.[2]

Prior to founding Greptile, Kameswaran held positions at Amazon, HubSpot, and Mentra.

Career

Kameswaran co-founded Greptile in 2023 alongside Daksh Gupta and Soohoon Choi, both also Georgia Tech alumni. The company develops an AI-powered code review agent that analyzes pull requests with full context of a team's codebase. The product is designed to help software development teams catch bugs and merge pull requests more efficiently. Greptile can be deployed via the cloud or self-hosted in an air-gapped virtual private cloud (VPC) environment.[3]

The company was accepted into Y Combinator's Winter 2024 batch. In 2024, Greptile raised $25 million in Series A funding led by Benchmark, bringing its total capital raised to approximately $30 million and valuing the company at $180 million. By early 2026, the company reported more than 2,000 customers, including Brex, Whoop, Substack, PostHog, and Raycast.[2]

As CTO, Kameswaran oversees the technical development of Greptile's AI platform, which indexes and understands entire codebases to provide context-aware feedback on code changes.
