Autonomous AI hackers that find and fix security vulnerabilities in your apps with real proof-of-concepts.
Core Features
- Fully autonomous AI agents that simulate real hackers, no manual intervention needed
- Real vulnerability validation with proof-of-concepts (PoCs), eliminating false positives
- One-click auto-fix that generates ready-to-merge pull requests
- Graph of agents for complex attack chains and distributed testing
- Seamless CI/CD integration to block vulnerabilities before production
What It Can't Do
- •Requires Docker running and a valid LLM API key (e.g., OpenAI, Claude)
- •Dynamic code execution is performed during scans; run in an isolated Docker container to avoid affecting production
- •Free tier has limitations; advanced features (deep scanning, enterprise reports) require a paid Strix platform subscription
Use Cases
- Application security testing: quickly scan web apps, APIs, and source code for vulnerabilities
- Automated bug bounty research: use AI to reproduce and report vulnerabilities
- CI/CD security pipeline: check every Pull Request for new security issues
Detailed Introduction
Strix is an open-source AI-powered penetration testing tool that simulates real hackers to discover and validate vulnerabilities. Unlike static analysis tools that generate high false positives, Strix runs dynamic tests, produces actionable proof-of-concepts (PoCs), and can auto-generate fixes as pull requests. It outperforms traditional DAST by leveraging LLMs to detect business logic flaws, access control issues, and injection attacks. Designed for developers and security teams, Strix integrates seamlessly into CI/CD pipelines, enabling continuous security testing without manual overhead.
