SAN FRANCISCO – Nov. 10, 2026 – The San Francisco Press Club announced today that CodeRabbit has joined as a breakthrough sponsor of the organization’s 49th Annual Greater Bay Area Journalism Awards.
The awards gala will be held on Monday, Dec. 7, 2026, at the Julia Morgan Ballroom in downtown San Francisco, where more than 300 journalists, media professionals and industry leaders will gather to celebrate excellence in Bay Area journalism. The event will include cocktail service beginning at 5:30 p.m., followed by dinner and awards at 6:30 p.m. Guests will enjoy a three-course gourmet meal with wine service and panoramic views of the San Francisco skyline.
“AI is changing how information is created, shared and consumed. It’s also making trust and independent review of the work done by AI even more important,” said Peter Guagenti, CMO at CodeRabbit. “Readers depend on journalists to question assumptions, verify facts and hold powerful institutions accountable. We’re proud to support the San Francisco Press Club and the journalists who do the daily work of keeping the public informed.”
The December ceremony will recognize winners from the Press Club’s annual journalism contest, which received nearly 800 entries this year. The gala honors outstanding work across categories including breaking news, investigative reporting, feature writing, photography and digital media innovation.
“Strong journalism depends on a community that values and invests in it,” said Curtis Sparrer, President, San Francisco Press Club and Principal, Bospar. “We’re grateful to CodeRabbit for supporting that community here in the Bay Area.”
To help ensure that working journalists have priority access to this year’s gala, online ticket sales are designated for journalists ($80), Press Club members ($70) and students ($50). A limited number of tickets for non-member supporters will be available by request at $350. Those interested may contact the Press Club at scoop@sfpressclub.org for information.
