Use of Estimates The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Such estimates include, but are not limited to, allocation of revenue to the license element in the Company's self-managed subscriptions, estimating the amortization period for capitalized costs to obtain a contract, allowance for doubtful accounts, stock-based compensa tion expense, fair value of contingent consideration, fair valuation of retained interest in an investee on loss of control, estimation of income tax liabilities related to the bilateral advance pricing agreement (“BAPA”), valuation allowance for deferred income taxes, reserves for unrecognized income tax benefits, valuation of acquired intangibles assets and impairment of goodwill and equity method investments. The Company bases these estimates on historical and anticipated results, trends, and various other assumptions that it believes are reasonable under the circumstances, including assumptions as to future events. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Principles of Consolidation The condensed consolidated financial statements include 100% of the accounts of wholly owned and majority owned subsidiaries as well as a variable interest entity for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. The ownership interest of other investors is recorded as noncontrolling interest. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies There were no significant changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies disclosed in “Note 2” of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K f or the fiscal year ended January 31, 2024 . Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Aside from the new accounting pronouncements already discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2024, there were no additional pronouncements issued or effective during the period that would materially affect our condensed consolidated financial statements.

The Company uses the specific-identification method to determine any realized gains or losses from the sale of the Company’s short-term investments classified as available-for-sale. For the three and nine months ended October 31, 2024 and 2023 , the Company did not have any material realized gains or losses as a result of maturities or sales of short-term investments. During the three and nine months ended October 31, 2024 , the Company recorded $12.6 million and $37.4 million of interest income on cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments, respectively, which includes $3.8 million and $12.9 million of net amortization of premiums or discounts on short-term investments during the three and nine months ended October 31, 2024, respectively.

Business Combination, Asset Acquisition, and Joint Venture Formation [Abstract]
Acquisitions	6. Acquisitions Rezilion On May 23, 2024 (the “Asset Acquisition Date”), the Company completed its acquisition of certain assets, primarily software intellectual property, of Rezilion Inc. and its subsidiary, Rezilion Ltd. (collectively, “Rezilion”) for approximately $7.3 million in cash. The Rezilion transaction was accounted for as an asset acquisition because substantially all of the fair value of gross assets acquired were concentrated in the developed intellectual property. Acquisition-related direct transaction costs were capitalized as a component of the cost of the assets acquired. On the Asset Acquisition Date, the fair value of the developed technology was $7.7 million including $0.4 million of acquisition-related direct costs. The developed technology acquired has an estimated useful life of three years. Oxeye On March 20, 2024 (the “Acquisition Date”), the Company completed the acquisition of Oxeye Security Limited (“Oxeye”), a cloud-native application security and risk management solution company based in Israel. The Company believes this acquisition will allow the Company to strengthen its product offerings. The transaction was accounted for as a business combination. The Acquisition Date fair value of the consideration transferred consisted of the following (in thousands): Closing cash consideration $ 16,737 Cash held in escrow 3,593 Total consideration $ 20,330 Total consideration includes $3.6 million deposited in an escrow account as partial security for post-closing indemnification claims made within 15 months of the Acquisition Date. As the Company is not the legal owner of the escrow account, it is not recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of October 31, 2024. As part of the acquisition, there was also a holdback in the amount of $3.2 million (the “holdback”). The holdback will be paid to the two co-founders (the “founder holdback”) in three equal tranches of 33.3%. The first such payment will be paid if certain milestones are achieved on or before the first anniversary of the closing date, provided such founder is employed by the Company upon completion of the milestones. The second and third tranches will be paid provided such founder is employed by the Company on the second and third anniversaries of the closing dates, respectively. As the founder holdback arrangement represents compensation for post-combination services, the Company has excluded the entire $3.2 million from the purchase price to be allocated, and will recognize the amount as expense over the period of services rendered after factoring in the likelihood of achieving the milestones in the first year. During the three months ended October 31, 2024 , the milestones attached to the first payment tranche were achieved and $1.1 million was paid out to the two co-founders. The Company recorded $0.1 million and $1.1 million of the founder holdback in general and administrative expenses in its condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2024, respectively. Acquisition related transaction costs were $1.2 million for the nine months ended October 31, 2024 , and were recorded by the Company in general and administrative expenses in its condensed consolidated statement of operations. The Company recorded the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their estimated fair values, with the difference between the fair value of the net assets acquired and the purchase consideration reflected in goodwill. The total purchase price of $20.3 million was allocated using information available to the Company at the time of acquisition. The Company may continue to adjust the preliminary purchase price allocation after obtaining more information regarding asset valuations, liabilities assumed, tax-related items and revisions of preliminary estimates. During the three and nine months ended October 31, 2024 , there were no measurement period adjustments identified and recorded. The following table reflects the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed (in thousands): Cash and cash equivalents $ 120 Developed technology 16,276 Goodwill 8,055 Prepaid expenses and other current assets 121 Accrued expenses and payroll (3,582) Deferred tax liability (660) Net assets acquired $ 20,330 As of March 20, 2024, developed technology of the acquired business had an estimated useful life of three years. The fair value of the developed technology intangible asset was estimated using the replacement cost method, which utilizes assumptions for the cost to replace it, such as time and resources required, as well as a theoretical profit margin and opportunity costs. The goodwill is primarily attributed to the synergies expected to be realized following the acquisition. The goodwill is not deductible for Israeli income tax purposes. Results of operations of the business acquired have been included in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements subsequent to the date of acquisition. The revenue and net income (loss) earned by the business acquired following the acquisition are not material to the Company’s condensed consolidated results of operations; and accordingly, pro forma financial statements have not been presented.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	12. Income Taxes For the three and nine months ended October 31, 2024, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $39.4 million and $66.1 million on pretax loss of $11.2 million and $80.5 million, respectively. Included in these amounts is an income tax benefit for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2024 of $8.3 million and $46.4 million, respectively, related to the conclusion of negotiations relating to a BAPA between the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) and Dutch Tax Authority (“DTA”), and a benefit of $31.6 million for three and nine months ended October 31, 2024 related to the conclusion of an agreement with the DTA on a reduced rate of tax on the gain from the transfer of the economic intellectual property (“IP”) rights. The Company executed the BAPA agreements with the IRS and DTA on October 10, 2024, and October 22, 2024, respectively. On October 28, 2024, the Company paid $187.7 million to satisfy the tax assessment issued by the DTA, which reflected the BAPA negotiations and the agreement to reduce the rate of tax on the gain from the transfer of economic IP rights. As a result of the BAPA and Dutch assessment, the 2015 through 2017 tax years are closed for GitLab B.V. Pursuant to the terms in the BAPA, the Company will file amended returns for the 2018 through 2023 fiscal years; the tax returns for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2024 were not yet due as of the end of the current fiscal quarter. All U.S. federal and state tax net operating losses (“NOLs”) and credits, as well as Netherlands NOLs, are not yet recognized due to the determination that they are not more likely than not to be realized. For the three and nine months ended October 31, 2023, the Company recorded income tax expense of $256.8 million and $262.3 million on pretax loss of $28.8 million and $125.8 million, respectively. The income tax expense for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2023 was primarily related to an increase in tax expense for unrecognized tax benefit relating to the BAPA, and the Company's foreign and domestic operations. The Company's provision for income taxes is based on its worldwide estimated annualized effective tax rate, except for jurisdictions for which a loss is expected for the year and no benefit can be realized for those losses, jurisdictions for which forecasted pre-tax income or loss cannot be estimated, and the tax effect of discrete items occurring during the period. The tax provision for jurisdictions for which a forecast cannot be estimated is based on actual taxes and tax reserves for the quarter. Under the provisions of ASC 740, Income Taxes , the determination of the Company’s ability to recognize its deferred tax asset requires an assessment of both negative and positive evidence when determining the Company’s ability to recognize its deferred tax assets. As in prior years, the Company maintained that it was not more likely than not that the Company could recognize deferred tax assets in certain jurisdictions. The evidence evaluated by the Company included operating results during the most recent three-year period and future projections. More weight was given to historical results than to expectations of future profitability, which are inherently uncertain. Certain entities’ net losses in recent periods represented sufficient negative evidence to require a valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets. This valuation allowance will be evaluated periodically and could be reversed partially or totally if business results have sufficiently improved to support realization of deferred tax assets. As of October 31, 2024, unrecognized tax benefits were $9.9 million, of which $0.5 million would affect the effective tax rate if recognized. As of January 31, 2024, the unrecognized tax benefits were $396.8 million, of which $207.8 million would affect the effective tax rate if recognized. The Company has settled and paid the BAPA tax liability with the DTA, thereby reducing the current tax liability previously classified as an unrecognized tax benefit. For unrecognized tax benefits unrelated to the BAPA, the Company is unable to reasonably estimate the timing of the remaining long-term payments or the amount by which the liability will increase or decrease. It is the Company's policy to classify accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for income taxes. Accrued interest and penalties were $0.3 million as of October 31, 2024 and $52.1 million as of January 31, 2024, respectively. As of October 31, 2024, the Company’s U.S. federal 2018 through 2024 tax years were open and subject to potential examination in one or more jurisdictions. In addition, in the United States, any NOLs or credits that were generated in prior years but not yet fully utilized in a year that is closed under the statute of limitations may also be subject to examination. The Company’s Netherlands tax years are currently open from tax years 2018 to 2024, subject to adjustments as a result of the recently negotiated BAPA. The Company believes that it has adequately reserved for the outcome of the BAPA. The Company regularly assesses the likelihood of adverse outcomes resulting from all existing and potential examinations to determine the adequacy of its provision for income taxes. The Company continues to monitor the progress of ongoing discussions with tax authorities and the effect, if any, of the expected expiration of the statute of limitations in various taxing jurisdictions.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies	14. Commitments and Contingencies Contractual Obligations and Commitments The Company’s purchase oblig ations of $140.5 million as of October 31, 2024 , represent third-party non-cancelable hosting infrastructure agreements, subscription arrangements and other commitments used in the ordinary course of business to meet operational requirements. Loss Contingencies In accordance with ASC 450, Loss Contingencies, the Company accrues for contingencies when losses become probable and reasonably estimable. Accordingly, the Company has recorded an estimated liability related to certain labor matters regarding its use o f contractors in certain foreign countries. As of October 31, 2024 and January 31, 2024, the estimated liability relating to these matters was $2.2 million recorded for each period presented in other non-current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets, respectively. Warranties and Indemnifications The Company enters into service level agreements with customers which warrant defined levels of uptime and support response times and permit those customers to receive credits for prepaid amounts in the event that those performance and response levels are not met. To date, the Company has not experienced any significant failures to meet defined levels of performance and response. In connection with the service level agreements, the Company has not incurred any significant costs and has not accrued any liabilities in the condensed consolidated financial statements. In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into contractual arrangements under which the Company agrees to provide indemnification of varying scope and terms to business partners and other parties with respect to certain matters, including, but not limited to, losses arising out of the breach of such agreements, intellectual property infringement claims made by third parties, and other liabilities relating to or arising from the Company’s platform or the Company’s acts or omissions. In these circumstances, payment may be conditional on the other party making a claim pursuant to the procedures specified in the particular contract. Further, the Company’s obligations under these agreements may be limited in terms of time and/or amount, and in some instances, the Company may have recourse against third parties for certain payments. In addition, the Company has agreed to indemnify its directors and executive officers for costs associated with any fees, expenses, judgments, fines, and settlement amounts incurred by any of these persons in any action or proceeding to which any of those persons is, or is threatened to be, made a party by reason of the person’s service as a director or officer, including any action by the Company, arising out of that person’s services as the Company’s director or officer or that person’s services provided to any other company or enterprise at the Company’s request. The Company maintains director and officer insurance coverage that may enable the Company to recover a portion of any future amounts paid. Legal Proceedings On September 4, 2024, a putative class action was filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California against the Company and certain of its current officers and directors. The complaint purports to assert claims under Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), SEC Rule 10b-5, and Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act, on behalf of persons and entities who acquired the Company’s Class A common stock between June 6, 2023 and March 4, 2024 (the “Class Period”). Plaintiff alleges that, during the Class Period, defendants made material misrepresentations or omissions regarding the Company’s use of AI features and ability to monetize its AI capabilities that artificially inflated the Company’s stock price. Plaintiff seeks, among other things, damages in an unspecified amount, as well as fees and costs. The action is in the preliminary stage and a lead plaintiff has not yet been appointed. The time for defendants to respond to the complaint has not yet passed and the Company intends to move to dismiss the complaint at the appropriate time. Based on the preliminary nature of the proceedings in this action, the outcome remains uncertain and the Company cannot estimate the potential impact, if any, on its business or financial statements at this time. In addition to the matter described above, the Company is, and from time to time may become involved in legal proceedings or be subject to claims arising in the ordinary course of its business. The Company is not presently a party to any legal proceedings that in the opinion of management, if determined adversely to the Company, would individually or taken together have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition or operating results. Defending such proceedings is costly and can impose a significant burden on management and team members. The results of any current or future litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, and regardless of the outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on the Company because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources and other factors.

Trading Arrangements, by Individual
Material Terms of Trading Arrangement		Robin Schulman New 10b5-1 Plan On October 1, 2024, Robin Schulman, the Company’s Chief Legal Officer, Head of Corporate Affairs, and Corporate Secretary, entered into a new pre-arranged written stock sale plan in accordance with Rule 10b5-1, or the New Schulman Rule 10b5-1 Plan, under the Exchange Act for the sale of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, including shares of Class A common stock resulting from (i) vesting and settlement of restricted stock units and (ii) the exercise of vested stock options for shares of the Company’s Class B common stock and subsequent conversion to Class A common stock prior to consummating any sale in connection with the exercise of vested stock options. The New Schulman Rule 10b5-1 Plan will take effect on January 2, 2025, and on December 31, 2024 Ms. Schulman’s existing Rule 10b5-1 Plan will terminate according to its terms. The New Schulman Rule 10b5-1 Plan was entered into during an open trading window in accordance with the Company’s policies regarding transactions in the Company’s securities and is intended to satisfy the affirmative defense of Rule 10b5-1(c) under the Exchange Act. The New Schulman Rule 10b5-1 Plan provides for the potential sale of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, including upon the vesting and settlement of restricted stock units and exercise of vested stock options, so long as the market price of the Company’s Class A common stock is higher than certain minimum threshold prices specified in the New Schulman Rule 10b5-1 Plan, between January 2, 2025 and December 31, 2025. The aggregate number of shares of Class A common stock that will be available for sale under the New Schulman Rule 10b5-1 Plan is not yet determinable because the shares available will be net of shares sold to satisfy tax withholding obligations that arise in connection with the vesting and settlement of such restricted stock unit awards and exercise and settlement of option awards. As such, for purposes of this disclosure, the aggregate number of shares of Class A common stock available for sale is approximately 406,678, which reflects the aggregate maximum number of shares underlying Ms. Schulman’s restricted stock units and vested options which may be sold, without excluding the shares that will be sold to satisfy the tax withholding obligations. The New Schulman Rule 10b5-1 Plan includes a representation from Ms. Schulman to the broker administering the plan that she was not in possession of any material nonpublic information regarding the Company or the securities subject to the New Schulman Rule 10b5-1 Plan at the time it was entered into. A similar representation was made to the Company in connection with the adoption of the New Schulman Rule 10b5-1 Plan under the Company’s policies regarding transactions in the Company’s securities. Those representations were made as of the date of adoption of the New Schulman Rule 10b5-1 Plan, and speak only as of such date. In making those representations, there is no assurance with respect to any material nonpublic information of which Ms. Schulman was unaware, or with respect to any material nonpublic information acquired by Ms. Schulman or the Company after the date of the representation. Once executed, transactions under the New Schulman Rule 10b5-1 Plan will be disclosed publicly through Form 4 and/or Form 144 filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission in accordance with applicable securities laws, rules, and regulations. Except as may be required by law, the Company does not undertake any obligation to update or report any modification, termination, or other activity under current or future Rule 10b5-1 plans that may be adopted by Ms. Schulman or other officers or directors of the Company.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all disclosures normally required in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Fiscal Year	Fiscal Year The Company's fiscal year ends on January 31. For example, references to fiscal year 2025 and 2024 refer to the fiscal year ending January 31, 2025 and the fiscal year ended January 31, 2024, respectively.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Such estimates include, but are not limited to, allocation of revenue to the license element in the Company's self-managed subscriptions, estimating the amortization period for capitalized costs to obtain a contract, allowance for doubtful accounts, stock-based compensa tion expense, fair value of contingent consideration, fair valuation of retained interest in an investee on loss of control, estimation of income tax liabilities related to the bilateral advance pricing agreement (“BAPA”), valuation allowance for deferred income taxes, reserves for unrecognized income tax benefits, valuation of acquired intangibles assets and impairment of goodwill and equity method investments.
