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.
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

01
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.
Q&A
02
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.
Q&A
03
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.
