Not exactly. GrapheneOS has an OEM partner and has early access to AOSP changes that aren't public. A huge downside to that is that security preview releases can't be open source until after Google makes the code public.
Well, that's not a huge downside. They still provide those security updates in their binary builds.
Fair enough. I said "huge" because I guess some people care a lot. I personally don't and have been on security preview releases since they started releasing them.
