The honest brief

Horizon3.ai

Agentless, production-safe pentests you can run continuously and on demand — replacing periodic manual engagements with always-on attack validation.

  • No agents to deploy in your environment
  • Runs continuously, not once a year
  • Verifies fixes by re-testing
  • Covers internal, external, cloud, hybrid
  • 225k+ pentests run to date
  • Enterprise pricing, quote-only
  • Aimed at orgs with security teams
  • Offensive testing needs careful scoping

Strix

Runs the app and confirms each vulnerability with a working proof-of-concept, cutting the false positives static scanners produce.

  • Open-source (Apache-2.0)
  • Validates findings with PoCs
  • Runs locally via Docker or cloud
  • Bring-your-own LLM provider
  • GitHub Actions integration
  • Requires your own LLM API key
  • Needs Docker to run locally
  • LLM costs scale with use
  • Newer, shorter track record
