Overview
Endor Labs is an AI-native application security platform founded in 2021 and headquartered in Palo Alto, CA. Built by serial entrepreneurs Varun Badhwar and Dimitri Stiliadis, who previously scaled Prisma Cloud at Palo Alto Networks, the platform addresses overwhelming security alert volumes in modern software development. Its AURI engine combines agentic AI reasoning with deterministic program analysis and function-level reachability to surface only exploitable vulnerabilities across source code, open source dependencies, containers, secrets, and AI model integrations. The platform protects over 5 million applications and performs more than 1 million scans per week. Customers include OpenAI, Robinhood, Atlassian, Cursor, Dropbox, and Rubrik. Endor raised a $93M Series B in April 2025.
Endor Labs delivers a unified AppSec platform powered by its AURI engine, which merges agentic AI with deterministic program analysis to produce verifiable, reachability-confirmed security findings across code, open source dependencies, containers, secrets, and AI model integrations. The platform targets the false-positive noise problem endemic to traditional SCA and SAST tools, claiming up to 92% fewer alerts through function-level reachability filtering and call graph analysis. It integrates directly into AI coding assistants (Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Claude, Gemini) and standard CI/CD pipelines, and generates compliance-ready SBOMs, VEX documents, and audit evidence for FedRAMP, PCI DSS, DORA, and NIST frameworks. A proprietary Patches module enables CVE remediation without requiring dependency upgrades.

Endor Labs customer outcomes
97% reduction in non-actionable SCA alerts
Zebra replaced a traditional SCA tool with Endor Labs across its product security program, achieving a dramatic reduction in non-actionable alerts and enabling teams to focus on genuinely exploitable vulnerabilities, with improved risk reporting to leadership.
76% reduction in SCA alerts; 11,424 development hours returned
Five9 adopted Endor Labs to address SCA alert volume, reducing security findings routed to developers and reclaiming significant engineering time previously spent on manual vulnerability triage.
97.5% noise reduction
Cursor deployed Endor Labs for SCA and dependency management, using function-level reachability analysis to cut irrelevant findings to just 2.5% of the total and build a stable, scalable remediation workflow without introducing breaking changes.
95% reduction in findings sent to developers
Robinhood switched from a previous SCA tool to Endor Labs, using precise reachability analysis and clear upgrade guidance to substantially reduce findings sent to developers while accelerating remediation of exploitable vulnerabilities.
98.3% noise reduction
Starburst adopted Endor Labs for SCA, reporting a near-complete elimination of noise in vulnerability findings and enabling the DevSecOps team to rapidly identify and address real risks earlier in the SDLC.

Alternatives in DevSecOps & Application Security6
Endor Labs positions itself as the AI-native application security platform purpose-built for the era of AI-generated and 'vibe-coded' software.
- Its primary differentiator is function-level reachability analysis—using call graphs and deterministic program analysis to surface only genuinely exploitable vulnerabilities, reducing alert noise by up to 92% versus traditional SCA tools.
- Its AURI engine (Agentic Unified Remediation Intelligence) combines agentic AI reasoning with deterministic program analysis to produce verifiable, auditable findings.
- Endor competes directly with Snyk and Semgrep on SCA/SAST with dedicated comparison landing pages, Socket on supply chain security, and GitGuardian on secrets detection, positioning itself as the consolidation platform replacing all four.
- Strategic partnerships with Microsoft Defender for Cloud and GitHub Advanced Security extend its reach into CNAPP and enterprise DevSecOps workflows.
Reviews
Praised
- Reachability analysis accuracy and proof of exploitability
- Dramatic reduction in false positives and alert noise
- Easy and fast CI/CD integration (GitHub, GitLab, CircleCI)
- Responsive and proactive customer support
- API-first design enabling custom vulnerability workflows
- Clear upgrade guidance and upgrade impact analysis
- Quick initial setup and low-friction deployment
- Actionable, prioritized findings focused on developer productivity
Criticized
- Pricing may be prohibitive for smaller businesses and startups
- Learning curve for advanced platform features
- Small public review base limits third-party validation
- Can require additional training to maximize advanced capabilities
Endor Labs holds a 4.8 out of 5 on G2 with 9 verified reviews (88% five-star) and a 4 out of 5 on Gartner Peer Insights with 2 reviews. Reviewers consistently praise the reachability analysis engine for dramatically reducing false positives and surfacing only genuinely exploitable vulnerabilities. Customers highlight fast CI/CD setup, responsive and proactive customer support, and the clarity of upgrade guidance. A minority of reviewers note the platform can be expensive for smaller organizations and that advanced features have a learning curve. The overall review pool remains small, reflecting the company's early-stage public profile relative to more established competitors.
Pricing
Endor Labs offers three product tiers on a quote-only basis: Core (reachability-based SCA, AI model discovery, OSS curation, SBOM and VEX generation), Pro (adds upgrade impact analysis, container scanning, binary scanning, artifact signing, and CI/CD security), and Patches (standalone or add-on module for backported CVE fixes without dependency upgrades). Add-ons include CoDe (AI SAST plus secrets detection) and SBOM Hub (centralized first- and third-party SBOM ingestion and management). No public pricing, per-seat rates, or free tiers are listed; all plans require contacting Endor Labs for a quote.
Limitations
- Pricing is entirely quote-based with no public tiers, which can slow procurement evaluation for smaller organizations.
- Reviewers on G2 note the platform can be relatively expensive for smaller businesses or startups.
- The advanced feature set has a learning curve for new users.
- The public review base is small (9 reviews on G2, 2 on Gartner Peer Insights), limiting third-party validation breadth compared to established competitors like Snyk or Checkmarx.
- Valuation and ARR are not publicly disclosed.
