163 organizations running a merge queue in public today, ranked by observed queue volume and segmented by which vendor they run. Private repositories are invisible to this method, so the largest buyers do not appear here — but every organization that does is qualified by behavior, with an evidence link that proves it.
A merge queue is not a default. Nobody arrives at one by accident — a team hits broken main, or races between PRs that each pass alone and fail together, and then goes and configures something. Every organization below has already reached that conclusion on its own. There is no problem left to explain to them.
Headcount, funding stage and tech-stack tags are proxies for the pain. This is the act itself, written into a config file and confirmed by queue runs. It is also why the list can't be bought: producing it requires reading repository configuration, not filtering a company database.
GitHub's native merge queue is free on public repositories, so adopting it costs nothing and proves only that the team wanted one. What teams reach for after that — parallel queues, affected-target batching, monorepo scale, self-hosting — is exactly what Aviator's own DoorDash case study is built on. Running the free queue at volume is the moment before that decision.
An organization paying Mergify today has already decided a merge queue is worth money and has the line item to prove it. That is a shorter conversation than a greenfield pitch: the category is sold, only the vendor is open.
Volume answers the remaining question — why now. A queue running a handful of batches is a team that adopted the idea. A queue running thousands is a team currently paying for it in wait time, and the ranking is ordered accordingly.
Pays a competitor for a merge queue today. Budget and intent already proven. Volume counts merges by that vendor's bot.
