Hacker Bot vs Invicti

Enterprise DAST with proof-based scanning. Great for large security teams—but is it right for developers who ship fast?

TL;DR

Invicti excels at enterprise-grade DAST with deep vulnerability validation, but requires security team expertise and custom pricing. Hacker Bot is built for developers who want black-box testing integrated directly into their GitHub workflow—with transparent pricing starting at $59/month.

Choose Invicti if you have a dedicated security team and enterprise compliance needs.
Choose Hacker Bot if you want developer-first security that fits into your existing workflow.
