Code Review Graph vs Coherence

Pricing, capabilities and platforms side by side. Prices are as of the "Pricing checked" date in the table.

Code Review Graph

The tool builds a dependency graph of your codebase locally, then exposes that graph through MCP so Claude Code, Cursor, or any compatible assistant can ask targeted questions: which files are affected by this change, what is the impact radius, which communities cluster around this module. For large monorepos, this is the difference between a useful review context and a truncated one. The analysis runs entirely on your machine — no source code leaves the environment. The gap shows up when you need deep semantic understanding beyond structural imports; graph topology tells you what calls what, not whether the logic is correct.

Coherence

Coherence scans the links between code, docs, architectural decision records, tests, metrics, generated files, and API endpoints — and flags where those links have snapped. It runs locally, deterministically, with no external API calls by default, which means it fits inside a pre-commit hook or CI pipeline without sending your codebase anywhere. The checks are rule-based, not LLM-driven, so results are repeatable run-to-run. Where it breaks: Coherence detects drift but does not fix it, so the remediation loop is still manual. Teams with loosely structured repos get limited signal until they invest time defining what relationships Coherence should track.

Specs come from each tool's own site and docs (how we test). AIDiveForge is editorially independent.
