Dynamic scanning at scale. Without the noise.

Ready to trade chasing false positives for chasing the perfect extraction? Detectify automates API security, eliminating the noise and manual work that consumes your day. We give you back the time to perfect your craft, whether that's code or coffee. If your gear includes more grinders and gooseneck kettles than spare keyboards, go ahead and blame us.

Dynamic on a new level

Instead of a fixed set of conditions for scans, our engine randomizes and rotates payloads with every scan. Giving you a more accurate, ongoing assessment even against more static targets.

Fast testing on a massive scale

We built out testing for scale. For prompt injection, we can generate a staggering number of payload permutations, exceeding 922 quintillion in theory. For command injections, we leverage a comprehensive library of over 330k payloads.

Unified API visibility

Get a unified inventory with the context to prioritize scanning across your entire API attack surface, not just the parts you already know about.

Proprietary, research-led testing

Our proprietary scanning engines deliver high-accuracy, actionable findings. The focus is on exploitability, reducing the time you waste on triaging false positives from outdated checks.

Test what matters with research-led coverage

Confidently fulfill compliance mandates for PCI, SOC 2, and more. Our research-led scanner goes deep, with over 900 unique tests covering critical OWASP API Top 10 categories like Broken Authentication (API2) and Security Misconfiguration (API8), plus a huge range of injections (SQL, NoSQL, Command, XSS) and other common vulnerabilities. Because our internal research team powers the engine, you get high-fidelity, exploitable findings, not a flood of false positives. Spend your time fixing real risks, not triaging noise.

How does the scanner work?

Our API assessments are never static; for each scan, we dynamically rotate a unique subset of payloads drawn from a massive, proprietary library. When a specific payload identifies a vulnerability, we prioritize it in that API's future test cycles. This ensures we continuously validate the finding and that regressions are not missed by newer, unproven payloads.

How fast is the Detectify API scanner?

API scan completion times average 15 - 20 minutes, influenced by API size and execution rate. These scans are significantly faster than most DAST scanning due to a more focused scope that does not require crawling. Instead, we randomize payloads so that every time we test your APIs for the same vulnerabilities, we’re trying different ways to find those vulnerabilities in your APIs.
