Product Information on Aikido Security

Updated 25th June 2024

What is Aikido Security?

Aikido is a developer-centric security platform that gives developers and security teams an instant overview of all code-to-cloud security issues and guides teams to fix vulnerabilities fast. Aikido supports security teams execute by aggressively reducing false-positives, automatic triage and risk bundling, and translating Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) into easy step-by-step explanations to resolve. Described as an "all-in-one" application security platform, Aikido's covers the entire Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC), including: static application security testing (SAST), dynamic application security testing (DAST), infrastructure-as-code (IaC), container scanning, secrets detection, open source lisence scanning, cloud posture management (CSPM), runtime protection, and more.

Aikido Security Pricing

Aikido has transparent and flat-rate pricing. The pricing is not based on per-developer or per-active contributer. Rather, the pricing model is based on flat-rates per up to 10, 20, 30, 50 groups for mid-size customers with set coverage. For enterprise customers, there is "scale" or custom pricing that allows for unlimited users and unlimited coverage on repos, cloud accounts, container images, and domains. There is a free-to-use tier so developers can try the product immediately.

    Aikido delivers strong AppSec coverage with an excellent developer-centred approach

    5.0
    Jan 28, 2026
    Aikido has provided consistently strong support throughout the development of our application security programme. From the outset, the team demonstrated a clear understanding of our objectives and engaged with us in a thoughtful and collaborative manner. They connected us with the right subject matter experts and made it straightforward to explore the platform in depth. What stood out was their willingness to go above and beyond during the evaluation phase, ensuring that we were able to test, valiadte and demonstrate value before making a commercial commitment. That approach helped build confidence and created a strong foundation for the partnership. Since adoption, our experience with support has remained excellent. Requests are handled promptly, feedback is taken seriously and improvements are often delivered at pace. It is evident that Aikido are committed to continuous enhancement of the product and to maintaining a constructive relationship with their customers.

Aikido delivers several standout strengths that materially enhance the effectiveness and efficiency of our application security programme. The following provide the most value: - Seamless GitHub integration and large scale onboarding. The App pattern makes it exceptionally easy to onboard repositories in bulk, while the native integration ensures that users and teams are imported cleanly and kept aligned with our existing developer workflows. - Comprehensive and effective security scanning coverage. The platform brings together a broad suite of embedded scanners, including SCA, SAST, secrets detection and IAC analysis. The inclusion of DAST with support for both GraphQL and REST API scanning further strengthens its technical depth. - Strong developer-centric experience that accelerates remediation. The portal offers a clear and intuitive user interface and places a real emphasis on helping developers prioritise and resolve issues. Explanations are accessible, suggested auto-fixes are helpful and the ability to open pull requests directly supports rapid action. Additional aspects that consistently add value include noise reduction and transparent prioritisation, industry-leading supply chain and malware monitoring, and the robust set of search and filtering options. These strengths combine to create a platform that is powerful and highly usable, enabling engineers to adopt security practises with confidence and velocity.
