VS

Agentic pentesting,
billed by the repo or by the exploit.

DepthFirst charges a subscription priced on how much code you scan. CodeAnt runs autonomous, code-aware pentesting across your whole attack surface, ships a working PoC and a 48-hour audit-grade report, and you pay only when an exploit actually lands.

[ THE DIFFERENCE ]

Why CodeAnt AI is different

Invoiced only on a real finding

You're billed only when a real critical or high lands. No credits, no minimums, no annual lock-in.

Every exploit maps to a line

Every exploit maps to the exact line that caused it, with a clear fix path.

Audit-grade, fast

Audit-grade, mapped to SOC 2 and ISO 27001. No waiting.

A real research track record

Real zero-days, real codebases. The track record speaks for itself.

[ The honest read ]

Where each one fits

Where DepthFirst fits

Deep agentic
analysis of your code

DepthFirst is a capable, well-backed AI-native platform. If you want deep agentic analysis of your code, supply chain, and secrets surfaced inside a developer platform with ready-to-merge fixes, on a subscription, it's a real product from a serious team.

Where CodeAnt fits

Proof across your whole surface, priced on results

If you want a pentest that proves exploitability across your whole attack surface, apps, cloud, network, and external, produces the audit-grade report your compliance program needs, and charges on results instead of codebase size, that's CodeAnt.
