We’re excited to announce a new way to run your pentests: AI-led Pentesting, now available in both Hybrid and Full-AI modes. This release marks the first step in bringing automation and intelligence into your security testing process.

ℹ️ AI-Led Pentesting is currently in closed beta. If you don’t have access yet and would like to participate, please reach out to our Customer Success team to request early access.

Why AI-led Pentesting?

Traditional pentesting remains essential, providing depth and expertise that only humans can deliver. By combining it with AI, we’re opening up:

  • Faster coverage of common vulnerabilities.

  • Continuous exploration beyond human constraints.

  • More efficient use of expert time to focus on high-impact findings.

How it works

AI-led pentests combine automation with professional oversight to deliver reliable, high-quality results. You can choose between:

  • Hybrid Mode: Human and AI collaboration. The AI runs exploratory and automated tests, while professional pentesters review, validate, and expand on the findings.

  • Full AI Mode: The AI takes the lead, running a complete security assessment of your target.

Human oversight

Regardless of the mode you select, all results are monitored and reviewed by our professional Operations team. This ensures findings are accurate, validated, and actionable — keeping quality and trust at the center of every test.

Security & technology

  • AI testing agents operate within controlled, isolated environments.

  • Intrusive techniques are handled carefully, with the same safeguards as manual testing.

  • Data handling follows the same strict policies applied to all pentests.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this feature in beta?

Yes. During the beta, we’re gathering feedback and fine-tuning both AI and workflow processes.

Do AI-led pentests replace human testers?

No. AI enhances and accelerates pentesting, but human expertise remains essential for validation, context, and advanced testing.

Can I run AI-led pentests on production environments?

We recommend running them on staging or test environments first. Production use is possible but should be carefully considered.

What types of pentests can I run?

At this stage, AI-led pentests support web and API applications.

What’s next

We’ll continue improving the AI engine, adding coverage for more technologies, and expanding hybrid workflows to give you even greater control and reliability.
