AI coding agents can generate pull requests at a pace your team has never seen. The bottleneck has shifted from writing code to everything that follows: reviewing, iterating, and merging. AI code-to-merge platforms are the category of tools built to manage that entire lifecycle, from the moment an agent starts working to the moment code lands in your main branch. This article walks through ten questions you should ask before committing to a platform.

We put a blunt question to developers on a recent live webinar: right now, could you actually prove AI agents are paying off for you or your team? Only 24% said yes. The other 76% were guessing, unsure, or already suspicious that agents are costing more than they’re saving. That gap between adoption and proof is the real story in agentic development right now. Teams aren’t behind on running agents. They’re behind on knowing whether it’s working.
