# Composal vs CodeRabbit

CodeRabbit evaluates diffs and repository context. Composal runs the changed application in a browser against Scenarios or exploratory goals, then returns recordings and reproduction steps.

## Composal

Composal sends AI browser agents to use your running web app and check the outcomes you care about. Define journeys as plain-English Scenarios, map existing flows with Discovery, or explore for bugs with Deep Scan. Runs keep recordings and reproduction steps so your team or coding agent can investigate a Finding.
