Detectify Alternative: VibeEval vs Detectify

Detectify is an external scanner - it tests your site from the outside, as an attacker would see it. Useful, but incomplete if you want to catch issues before they ship.

TL;DR: Detectify excels at external attack surface management but only scans from the outside and charges per domain. VibeEval tests your entire application during development at a flat monthly rate. Choose Detectify if you need external attack surface monitoring for production sites. Choose VibeEval if you want security testing integrated into your vibe coding workflow.
DEV FLOW
VIBEEVAL
PRO
$49/MO · UNLIMITED
Pre-deploy + production. Dev workflow integration.
DETECTIFY
ESSENTIAL
~$89/MO · PER DOMAIN
External-only. Production-focused. Per-domain billing.

Where Detectify Wins

Crowdsourced vulnerability research (active bug bounty pipeline). Strong attack-surface monitoring for public-facing domains. European data residency for GDPR-sensitive orgs.

Where Detectify Falls Short

EXTERNAL-ONLY

Scans from outside. Can't test auth with valid sessions, can't probe internal APIs.

PER-DOMAIN COST

Each domain = separate subscription. Multi-project teams pay multiple times.

NO DEV INTEGRATION

Not built for pre-deploy testing. Doesn't plug into Vercel preview URLs.

LIMITED AI-CODE FOCUS

Generic web scanner. Doesn't target Supabase RLS, Lovable patterns, etc.

When to Pick Detectify

  • Existing production sites needing external monitoring
  • Domain count is stable (not shipping new apps weekly)
  • EU data residency matters for compliance
  • Need crowdsourced vuln research

When to Pick VibeEval

  • Shipping new AI-generated apps frequently
  • Want testing integrated into dev workflow (Vercel preview, Git push)
  • Need Supabase / Firebase / Lovable-specific tests
  • Prefer flat unlimited pricing

Migration / Combination Path

  1. Keep Detectify for production ASM if you already use it
  2. Add VibeEval for pre-deploy and preview-URL testing
  3. Over time, consolidate production scanning to VibeEval if Detectify value drops

Most teams find VibeEval covers 80% of what they used Detectify for - at a fraction of the per-domain cost.

Common questions

What's the difference between external and workflow-integrated testing?
External (Detectify) tests your live production site periodically. Workflow-integrated (VibeEval) tests on every deploy, in preview environments, and before pushes to production. Catches issues 10x earlier.
Does VibeEval do attack surface management?
Partially. VibeEval crawls your deployed app and maps endpoints, but it's not a replacement for pure attack-surface-monitoring products. For deep ASM, keep Detectify. For app-level security testing, use VibeEval.
Can I use both?
Yes - many teams do. Detectify handles external monitoring, VibeEval handles dev-time and deploy-time testing. The combination is stronger than either alone.
