A lightweight, free alternative to Wiz
Wiz is an enterprise cloud security platform - it maps attack paths across an entire cloud estate, and more than 65% of the Fortune 100 use it. Pricing is quoted by sales, and the free access is a 14-day trial rather than a permanent tier. FlawPilot is lightweight and free for good: a scan of a live URL that starts now, with no account and no trial window.
Time to first result
Wiz
5 steps- Request the 14-day trial
- Connect your cloud accounts
- Scope modules and workloads
- Deploy sensors where needed
- Quote sales for a paid plan
FlawPilot
Done- Connect your repository
- Scan runs
- Ranked report
Wiz offers a self-serve 14-day free trial, requested with a work email and company details; there is no permanent free tier and a paid plan is quoted by sales. Licensing is modular and scales with workloads, active developers, log ingestion or sensors. The steps above describe an evaluation and onboarding path, not a technical install. Relative timings are illustrative, not measured benchmarks.

No public pricing - a paid plan is quoted by sales - but a 14-day free trial is self-serve, needing only a work email and company details rather than a sales call. Licensing is modular, scaling with workloads, active developers, log ingestion or sensors, across Wiz Cloud, Wiz Code, Wiz Defend and Wiz Sensor, plus a Wiz Go bundle aimed at SMBs. Wiz is now part of Google Cloud - the acquisition completed in March 2026 - and keeps its own brand and multicloud support.
Wiz or FlawPilot
These solve different problems. The honest answer is usually "not the same tool".
Ask what you are securing
If the answer is a cloud estate - accounts, workloads, containers, identities across providers - Wiz is built for that and FlawPilot is not a substitute.
If it is a site or an app, start scanning
For a deployed web app, a free scan gives you headers, TLS, DNS, email authentication, performance and SEO in minutes - no trial to start and no clock running.
Connect the repository
Adds insecure code patterns, secrets and vulnerable dependencies, ranked alongside the live-site findings.
Revisit when your estate grows
When you are running a real cloud footprint with a security team to match, that is the point at which a platform like Wiz earns its cost. Their 14-day trial is the way to find out, and Wiz ASM and the Red Agent will probe a running app far harder than FlawPilot does.
What you get
- Insecure code patterns
- Hardcoded secrets and API keys
- Vulnerable dependencies
- Live-site headers, TLS, DNS and email authentication
- Performance and SEO
- Everything ranked in one report
When to keep Wiz
At enterprise cloud scale there is no comparison to make - Wiz maps attack paths across an entire cloud estate, which is a different problem from scanning a site. Wiz ASM and the Red Agent also test running apps and APIs far more aggressively than FlawPilot, which never sends attack payloads.
Pick them when: You are securing a large cloud estate and have a security team.
