Aikido Security

Aikido Security is a developer-focused application security platform that consolidates many separate scanning tools into one product covering code to cloud. In a single dashboard it runs static analysis for code vulnerabilities, software composition analysis for open-source dependencies and license issues, secrets detection, infrastructure-as-code scanning, container image scanning, dynamic testing of running applications, cloud posture management, and runtime protection. Its main pitch to engineering teams is reducing noise: Aikido deduplicates findings across tools, filters out issues that are not actually reachable or exploitable, and prioritizes what matters so developers are not buried in low-value alerts. It integrates with source hosts, CI pipelines, ticketing, chat, and IDEs, and it can auto-generate fix pull requests. Founded in Ghent, Belgium in 2022, Aikido has grown quickly, raising a sixty million dollar Series B in early 2026 at a one billion dollar valuation, and has expanded through acquisitions and open-source projects, including automated penetration testing capabilities. It is aimed at startups and mid-sized engineering organizations that want broad security coverage and compliance evidence without buying and operating a stack of point tools, and it offers a free tier alongside paid plans that scale with contributors and features.
