Shipping Fast with AI? You’re Probably Shipping Vulnerabilities Too.
What nobody tells you about building with AI (from someone shipping fast): Over the past weeks, I kept seeing the same pattern: Apps exposing secrets without the “builder” writing real code Databases left open, no exploit needed Projects that pass tests, CI, reviews… yet are trivially breakable Everything works. Nothing is safe. That’s the gap. We’ve optimized everything for speed: AI writes the code CI catches build errors Tests catch regressions Observability catches crashes But one question is missing: “What can an attacker actually do with this right now?” And honestly, most indie builders (myself included at first) don’t think this way. Because: PR reviews miss auth edge cases Unit tests don’t simulate abuse Staging ≠ real adversarial environment Business logic flaws look completely fine… until someone abuses them AI makes this worse. It gives you clean-looking code, fast but no guarantee it’s safe. So I started building something for myself: A tool that looks at your app like an
