I’m biased (I created https://codeapprove.com) but I think GitHub has let code review lag so far behind the rest of the platform. They’ve done a lot of work on project management, CI, discussions, and code authoring but code review has been the same for about 10 years.

Tools like Graphite, CodePeer, Codelantis (and of course CodeApprove) make it so much easier to have a meaningful discussion on a PR. Making sure every thread comes to resolution, knowing whose turn it is, having a fast way to navigate between code and comments, etc. The FAANG companies all have this kind of thing built in house because good code review is a key part of building high quality large software projects.
