Prbl for vibe coders and solo founders

No security team, no time for a full audit, shipping fast with Cursor or Claude Code. This is for you, the scan that catches what speed skips, without slowing you down.

By Prbl Security Team

If you’re a solo founder or a two-person team building with AI coding tools, you don’t have a security review process, you have a deadline. That’s exactly the gap Prbl is built for: a fast, free check that fits between “it works” and “ship it,” without requiring you to become a security expert first.

Why vibe coded apps are riskier, specifically

It’s not that AI-generated code is worse code. Often it’s cleaner than what a junior developer would write by hand. The risk is that nobody reviewed it for security, because the person who prompted it isn’t a security reviewer and the tool that wrote it wasn’t asked to be one either. See how to secure a vibe coded app for the full breakdown.

Scan your own app for issues like these

Paste your live URL. We check what your app serves publicly for exposed keys and misconfigurations. No account, no install.

What this actually looks like

  • Paste your GitHub repo URL, no account, no setup, results in under a minute
  • Get a prioritized list of findings, not a wall of noise
  • Each finding shows the exact file, line, and why it matters
  • Upgrade later for auto-fix and CI integration once you’re past the first scan

You don’t need to understand security to start

Every finding links to a plain-language explanation, what a fallback secret is, what BOLA means, why a JWT decode-without-verify bug is dangerous. The goal isn’t to make you a security engineer overnight. It’s to make sure the handful of dangerous, repeatable mistakes AI tools make don’t ship to your users.

Frequently asked questions

Is AI-generated code actually worse than code a person writes?

Not necessarily. Often it's cleaner than what a junior developer would write by hand. The risk is that nobody reviewed it for security, because neither the person prompting it nor the tool that wrote it was acting as a security reviewer.

Do I need to understand security to use Prbl?

No. Every finding links to a plain-language explanation of what it is and why it matters, so you don't need to be a security engineer to act on it.

What does a scan actually cost, and do I need an account?

The scan itself is free with no account or setup. Paste your GitHub repo URL and get a prioritized list of findings in under a minute.
