Pricing alternative to Pynt

Sticker price is one factor in total cost. This alternative presents a per‑API pricing structure with a free entry point and clear additive costs. The Free tier allows three scans per month and CLI access at no charge. The Starter tier is billed monthly at 99 USD per plan and supports 15 APIs, scheduled monthly scans, a web dashboard, email alerts, and the MCP Server. The Pro tier at 499 USD per plan covers 100 APIs, with additional APIs billed at 7 USD each, and adds continuous monitoring, GitHub Action gates, CI/CD integration, Slack or Teams alerts, compliance reports, and signed webhooks. Enterprise plans are priced at 2000 USD per month and beyond for unlimited APIs, custom rules, SSO, audit logs, an SLA, and dedicated support.

Compare more than the monthly rate. Pynt may bundle features that require separate licenses or professional services here included in higher tiers. Free and Starter include read‑only black‑box scanning with under‑one‑minute runtime per submit. Pro adds automated rescan scheduling every six hours to daily, diff detection to highlight new or resolved findings, and HMAC‑HMAC‑SHA256 signed webhooks that auto‑disable after five consecutive failures. Enterprise adds unlimited scan concurrency and custom rule authoring without per‑scan surcharges. Factor in onboarding time, dashboard usability, and whether integrations such as the CLI, GitHub Action, or MCP Server reduce manual effort compared to building internal wrappers.

The scanner maps findings to three frameworks: PCI‑DSS 4.0, SOC 2 Type II, and OWASP API Top 10 2023. It detects issues across twelve categories aligned to OWASP API Top 10, including Authentication bypass, BOLA and IDOR, BFLA and Privilege Escalation, Property Authorization over‑exposure, Input Validation such as CORS wildcard and dangerous methods, Rate Limiting and Resource Consumption indicators, Data Exposure patterns including PII and API key formats, Encryption misconfigurations, SSRF indicators in URL‑accepting parameters, Inventory Management issues like missing versioning, Unsafe Consumption surfaces, and LLM / AI Security adversarial probes across three scan tiers. For other frameworks, the tool helps you prepare for and aligns with security controls described in HIPAA, GDPR, ISO 27001, NIST, CIS, CCPA, NIS2, DORA, FedRAMP, DPDP, APPI, PDPA, PIPEDA, PIPA, UK DPA, LGPD, SOX, GLBA, and FERPA by surfacing findings relevant to audit evidence.

Scanning is read‑only; destructive payloads are never sent. Private IPs, localhost, and cloud metadata endpoints are blocked at three layers. Authentication supports Bearer, API key, Basic auth, and Cookie, with a domain verification gate to ensure only the domain owner can submit credentials. Only specific headers are forwarded: Authorization, X‑API‑Key, Cookie, and X‑Custom‑*. Continuous monitoring stores no sensitive data in a way that persists beyond retention windows; customer data is deletable on demand and purged within 30 days of cancellation, is never sold, and is never used for model training.

The tool does not fix, patch, block, or remediate findings; it reports with remediation guidance. It does not perform active SQL injection or command injection, as those require intrusive payloads outside scope. It does not detect business logic vulnerabilities, which require domain context and human analysis, nor does it detect blind SSRF due to the absence of out‑of‑band infrastructure. It cannot replace a human pentester for high‑stakes audits. Use this scanner for frequent checks and to triage low‑hanging issues, then apply targeted manual review for complex logic and business‑specific risks.
