Use case
Before shipping or releasing a web app, a solo developer or small team needs to confirm whether its endpoints and auth have exploitable holes, working against the running application itself.
Running a generic vulnerability scanner, or hiring an external tester for a one-off penetration test, then manually judging which alerts are real.
Traditional scanners emit unreproducible alerts, while manual penetration testing is expensive and slow, so small teams often just guess where they might be breached.
xOcto's call
Demand is evidenced
Trend: security validation is shifting from hand-written test cases and after-the-fact scanning toward letting an agent actually attack your own service. Entry: start with solo developers and small teams doing pre-release self-checks, selling a per-run or per-project reproducible intrusion report rather than scanner seats; enterprise compliance workflows are not the entry point.
Reason to use it
Why users would choose it
Inference: it compresses find-reproduce-patch-reverify into one agent run, replacing unreproducible alerts with real requests and removing the step where developers manually validate each alert, so small teams without security staff that ship fast would pick it before release.
