Question 1

What is Vibehacker?

Accepted Answer

Vibehacker is an autonomous AI red team that continuously probes your website the way a real attacker would. Dozens of AI agents map your application, look for weak spots, and attempt to exploit them, then verify every finding to eliminate false positives.

Question 2

How is it different from a traditional vulnerability scanner?

Accepted Answer

Traditional scanners match known CVE signatures and produce noisy reports full of false positives. Vibehacker's agents reason about your specific application, reproduce each finding, and only report verified, exploitable issues.

Question 3

Do I need security expertise to use it?

Accepted Answer

No. Vibehacker is designed for product teams without a dedicated security team. You get a plain-English report of what's actually broken, with reproduction steps.

Question 4

How much does it cost?

Accepted Answer

The first scan is free (Proof of Value tier). Continuous always-on protection starts at $50/user/month billed annually, 10-user minimum. Enterprise self-hosted pricing is custom.

Question 5

Can I try it on my own website?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The first scan is free. Book a demo and we will run it on your site during the 30-minute call.

Question 6

What types of applications does Vibehacker work on?

Accepted Answer

Any web application reachable over HTTP or HTTPS. Single-page apps, REST APIs, GraphQL endpoints, server-rendered sites, dashboards, and internal tools all work. Both public and authenticated apps.

Question 7

Does it work on sites that require login?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Provide a test account and the swarm uses it like a real user, including stateful session testing that signature-based scanners cannot do. IDOR and privilege-escalation checks require this.

Question 8

How long does a scan take?

Accepted Answer

A typical mid-complexity web app finishes in 15 minutes to 2 hours. Findings stream in as they are verified, so you do not have to wait for the whole scan to see the first results.

Question 9

What kinds of vulnerabilities does it find?

Accepted Answer

OWASP Top 10 categories at minimum: SQL injection, command injection, broken access control (IDOR, privilege escalation), authentication flaws, SSRF, XSS, insecure deserialization, and path traversal. Plus chained attacks across multiple endpoints that scanners almost always miss.

Question 10

Am I allowed to scan my own site?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You can authorize security testing against systems you own or manage. Vibehacker requires you to confirm authorization before every scan and only runs against targets you have explicitly designated.

Question 11

How does it compare to a manual penetration test?

Accepted Answer

Manual pentests dig deeper into high-value targets but cost $10k to $50k and happen once or twice a year. Vibehacker runs continuously, catches most of what a mid-level pentester would find, and costs a fraction. The two work well together: Vibehacker for coverage, human pentesters for strategic engagements.

Question 12

Is there a false positive problem?

Accepted Answer

Every finding is independently reproduced by a verification agent before it reaches your report. Findings that cannot be reproduced are discarded. In practice, near-zero false positives. What you see is real and exploitable.

Question 13

What happens to my scan data?

Accepted Answer

Scan outputs and findings are stored encrypted on our EU-region infrastructure and are only accessible to your account. You can delete everything at any time from the dashboard, and nothing is retained after account deletion.

Question 14

Can Vibehacker be self-hosted?

Accepted Answer

Yes, on the Enterprise tier. Self-hosted deployments run entirely on your own infrastructure with no scan data leaving your environment. Useful for regulated industries and air-gapped setups.

Writeups, case studies, and how attacks really work

We rebuilt 3 real vulnerable apps in a lab and let our agent loose. It found all three CVEs.
