Overview
buggy.run is an automated security audit platform designed for developers and small teams who need to catch vulnerabilities before attackers do. Unlike traditional scanners that only check public pages, buggy.run uses a real browser to crawl both public and authenticated pages, capturing every network request and inspecting responses for data leaks, misconfigurations, and injection flaws. It runs 56+ security checks per page, including HTTP headers, TLS, cookies, exposed files, and input fuzzing, then an AI agent ranks findings by severity and explains each one in plain English with the exact fix. The tool supports on-demand and continuous audits, integrates with any web stack without SDK installation, and offers a free initial audit.
Key Features
- Authenticated crawling: Log in with test credentials to scan pages behind authentication, not just the marketing site.
- Real-browser network capture: Every request and response is inspected for session tokens, PII, API keys, and secrets.
- 56+ security checks per page: Covers headers, TLS, cookies, injection, rate limiting, and more across the entire app.
- AI-powered triage: An agent explains findings in plain English, provides the exact request that triggered each issue, and recommends fixes.
- Continuous auditing: Schedule recurring audits to catch regressions and newly exposed endpoints as you ship.
- Safe load testing: Capped tests reveal missing rate limits and account lockouts without taking the app down.
Target Audience
buggy.run is built for indie founders, small engineering teams, and solo developers who ship web apps and want a practical, affordable way to identify security issues without hiring a consultant. It's also useful for agencies managing multiple client sites.
