WHAT GETS SCANNED

8 scanners. Zero blind spots.

Every attack surface covered — from source code to running containers — through a single integration point.

All 8 scanners run in parallel. Average scan time: 12 seconds on a 50k LOC codebase. Powered by Semgrep, Trivy, Gitleaks, and Checkov — battle-tested by millions of developers.

Testimonials

Loved by vibe coders who ship safe

We plugged SafeWeave into Cursor and immediately caught a hardcoded API key that had been in our codebase for months. The MCP workflow is a game-changer.

Sarah Chen

Average scan time went from 90 seconds with our old tool to 12 seconds. My team actually runs scans now instead of skipping them before every PR.

Marcus Rivera

The fact that I can just type "scan this project" in Claude Code and get back structured findings with fix suggestions — that's the future of AppSec.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Does SafeWeave store or transmit my source code?

In Self-Hosted mode, your code stays on your machine. File contents are sent to our scanner fleet over HTTPS for analysis and immediately discarded after scanning — we never store source code. In Cloud mode, scan results (not source code) are stored for dashboard analytics.

How is this different from Snyk or GitHub Advanced Security?

SafeWeave is MCP-native — it integrates directly into AI code editors like Cursor, Claude Code, and VS Code as a first-class tool. You get 8 specialized scanners through a single npx command, with no complex setup or vendor lock-in. Self-hosted scanning starts at $0/mo.

Which CI/CD platforms are supported?

SafeWeave works with GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, CircleCI, Jenkins, and any CI/CD platform that supports Node.js. Just add npx safeweave-mcp to your pipeline.

Does the MCP server require internet access to my codebase?

The free Self-Hosted tier sends files to our scanner fleet for analysis. Self-Hosted Pro does the same but unlocks all 8 scanners. No cloud account is needed — just run npx safeweave-mcp.

What does 'Basic' SAST mean on the free plan?

The free tier includes SAST scanning with the top 20 most impactful rules covering SQL injection, XSS, SSRF, and path traversal. Custom patterns, extended rule sets, and scan history require Self-Hosted Pro or higher.

Can I self-host the MCP server?

Yes. The MCP server runs locally on your machine via npx safeweave-mcp. On the free tier you get 3 scanners; Self-Hosted Pro ($15/mo) unlocks all 8 scanners and compliance profiles while keeping everything local. Only license verification touches our servers.
