LaunchSafe

LaunchSafe is the latest in a wave of AI security tools pitching themselves as the fast alternative to traditional pentesting—and look, I get why startups love it, because calling someone for a penetration test when you're shipping on a Tuesday and need to launch by Friday is laughable. The question is whether AI can actually find the stuff that human hackers would catch, or if it's more of a "confidence checker" for founders who haven't done their homework. For early-stage startups who genuinely can't afford a $15k pentest, this is probably getting the job done well enough—but I'd want to see their bug bounty results before calling it bulletproof.
