Stop fixing the same vulnerabilities - over and over again, one-by-one.
Semgrep makes rule-level SAST simple - meaning you fix classes of vulnerabilities instead of individual bugs.
Reachability analysis proves when a dependency vulnerability actually impacts your code. Semgrep reduces SCA false positives by 95%[1]
Semgrep uses AI the way your developers actually want it to be used - to speed up remediation and triage.
Accuracy
Developers trust and action on Semgrep findings. Even when developers see false positives - an inevitability with SAST tools - they know that flagging a finding means they are less likely to see similar instances moving forward.
Snyk inundates developers with false positives and damages their trust in security teams and tools. Since Snyk doesn't offer rule-level visibility (and developers know this since they are expected to work inside Snyk's platform), the security part of their job feels like an endless grind.
Workflows
When developers engage with security findings in Semgrep, they do it from their native environment inside a pull request. All of the context and information a developer would normally seek out is presented within a PR comment, which makes actioning on a finding as frictionless as possible. Semgrep Assistant uses AI to surface suggested fixes, with explanations that make them easy to verify.
Snyk forces developers to context-switch and offers a library of resources for vulnerability types. Basic information about a vulnerability and one static example of a fix isn't enough information. Devs end up having to flip between Snyk, Stack Overflow, and ChatGPT just to fix a basic vulnerability.
