About Aikido
Aikido is a commercial security platform that brings several application security checks into one dashboard. It is built for developers and for small to mid-sized engineering teams that want fewer separate tools.
What it does
Aikido scans code, dependencies, containers and cloud settings, then groups the results into risks. It offers automatic triage and AI-assisted fix suggestions, plus AI-driven penetration testing. The product connects to common IDEs, CI/CD systems and Git hosts, so checks run in the places developers already work.
Key features
- Scans dependencies for known vulnerabilities
- Static code analysis and secrets detection
- Checks cloud settings and infrastructure as code
- AI-assisted fixes and penetration testing
- Integrations with IDEs and CI/CD systems
Who it's for
Aikido suits startups and developer teams that want one place for application security without running several products. Larger organizations may want to compare it with enterprise platforms that offer deeper governance features.
Pricing and good to know
The site offers a free start, and the pricing page lists paid plans for more features. The company also publishes some open source projects, including Opengrep and Aikido Safe Chain, but the main platform is a hosted service. Teams should check which integrations they need before signing up.
