What Escape does
Escape provides an AI-powered offensive security engineering platform that automates the full offensive security lifecycle. It replaces legacy scanners and manual offensive security processes with AI agents that discover, test, and remediate vulnerabilities directly within engineering workflows. The platform offers Attack Surface Management, Business-logic-aware DAST, and AI Pentesting to help security teams manage and secure modern applications, APIs, and infrastructure from code to cloud. Escape aims to multiply the impact of security engineers by providing continuous, automated security testing and remediation, integrating with existing developer tools and CI/CD pipelines.
Products
- Attack Surface ManagementDiscovers and validates exposure of modern applications, APIs, and infrastructure from code to cloud. It maps application layers, including REST APIs, GraphQL endpoints, SPAs, MCP, gRPC, and SOAP, and identifies shadow APIs. It integrates with risk platforms like Wiz for context and routes findings to asset owners.
- Business-logic-aware DASTReplaces legacy DAST with testing that improves over time and helps remediate real, exploitable vulnerabilities. It performs business logic testing, including workflows, access control, and multi-step processes, and is built for modern authentication methods like OAuth and SSO. It integrates into CI/CD pipelines and provides developer-friendly context for remediation.
- AI PentestingReplaces manual pentest and bug bounty programs with a scalable solution. It uses AI agents for multi-step attack chains, proves exploitability, and delivers actionable reports. It performs regression testing by converting previous findings into automated tests and supports continuous compliance validation for various frameworks.

AI approach
Escape uses AI agents to automate offensive security, including discovering, testing, and remediating vulnerabilities. Their AI-powered DAST performs business-logic-aware testing, and their AI Pentesting solution learns the business context to prove exploitability and generate regression tests. AI is also used for remediation, generating code suggestions and integrating with AI-assisted IDEs.
