Do I need a security team to use this?
No. Zaaf is built for founders and engineering leads, not CISOs. There's no agent to install and nothing to tune. Point us at your app and you get findings you can act on, each with the proof attached.
Is this the same as a certified penetration test?
No, and we will not pretend otherwise. AI agents run the engagement and a security researcher verifies every finding before it reaches you, so nothing is reported that we could not reproduce. It is not an engagement from an accredited pentest firm. If your buyer's checklist specifically requires a certified pentest, tell us: we will say so plainly instead of letting you hand over the wrong document.
How is this faster than a pentest?
A traditional engagement spends 2–4 weeks on scoping and scheduling before anyone touches your app, because it is waiting on a senior tester's calendar. Ours is waiting on compute, so testing starts once scope is agreed. If you later need a formal manual pentest for compliance, our findings make that engagement shorter and cheaper.
What can you test?
Web applications and the APIs behind them, cloud and infrastructure configuration, smart contracts and the web3 app layer, and connected devices including their firmware and the cloud service they talk to. If your surface is something else, ask, we will tell you plainly whether we can test it rather than take the engagement and find out.
Is a human involved at all?
Yes, on Growth and Scale, and in the Review Pack. On every plan the agent does the automated testing and proves each finding twice, from a clean state, with the evidence attached. Growth and Scale add hands-on expert reviews on a schedule (two a year, or four; twelve on Enterprise), where a security researcher tests by hand, signed in, and signs the report. Starter is the automated tier: exploit-verified monitoring, without the human review.
Isn't running agents against production risky?
That is exactly why scope is a signed document rather than a checkbox. You name the hours, cap the request rate, and say which accounts we may create. The first pass does not start until you have said so, and every pass stays inside those limits.
What happens after I fix something?
The agent retests it on the next pass and the finding closes with the evidence that it is closed. You do not have to book anything or ask for a re-scan.
Is there a contract?
No. Plans are monthly, billed by Paddle, our merchant of record, and you can cancel any month from your account. The Enterprise Review Pack is a one-time purchase and is fully refundable until testing starts.
My deal needs it next week. Can you move that fast?
Usually, yes. Turnaround is measured in days, not weeks, because the testing does not queue behind a person's calendar. Tell us your timeline and we will confirm before you promise anything to your buyer.
