Where Aikido and Parameterdiffer.
Aikido sells scanners plus a self-serve AI pentest, and is the fastest way to a first result. Parameter is a pentest under contract for every release, with every finding proven and a published false-positive rate.

[ how it works ]
Continuous pentestingin three steps.
[ coverage ]
One platform for code, cloud,and dependencies.
Aikido bundles a scanner for each layer and sells an AI pentest on top. Parameter's agents pentest each layer and correlate what they find.
Web apps and APIs
Authentication, authorization, and business logic on the running application, tested as different users. Findings scanners cannot reason about: skipped steps, swapped identifiers, replayed requests.
Every pull request
An AI reviewer on GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket flags exploitable issues as inline comments before the code is merged. The agents review more than 10,000 pull requests a day.
Cloud infrastructure
Misconfigured buckets, permissive IAM, and exposed services across AWS, Google Cloud, and Azure, with attack paths traced to your data and a Terraform fix for each.
Dependencies and secrets
Vulnerable packages flagged only when your code reaches the vulnerable path, and leaked keys caught in commits and git history before they ship.
[ definition ]
Why teams look for an Aikido alternative
Aikido puts every scanner a developer needs in one self-serve product, and sells an AI pentest per assessment on top. That is a good way to get coverage fast. Parameter is the other half: a pentest that runs on every release, as different users, across apps, APIs, cloud, code, and dependencies, with each finding exploited before it reaches you and a report from every run.
