Where each tool wins
A comparison page where the competitor never wins reads as an advert. Here is the case for Detectify, and the case against us, alongside the case for FlawPilot.
What Detectify does better
Active exploitation testing against a live target, informed by real researcher findings. That is a different and deeper class of testing than FlawPilot’s passive scan.
Where FlawPilot differs
FlawPilot reads only publicly accessible signals and never sends attack payloads at your site, so a scan is safe to run against production without scheduling. There is a free scan and no card.
Pick Detectify when
You need active vulnerability testing and continuous attack-surface discovery across many subdomains.
