Finding a bug is only half the job. XBOW stops at the finding. FireCompass AI proves it with a working exploit, chains it into the full attack path, gives you the fix, and retests it, on your own app, free.
Autonomous AI agents test your web apps and APIs like a real attacker, prove what is exploitable, and chain findings into full attack paths.
“The platform helps identify potential attack paths and highlight those that are exploitable. It significantly reduces the time required for attack-surface discovery, initial testing, and evidence collection.”

Put the #1 AI hacker to the test. See the attack paths it can chain.
Submit the form. Use your work email and the app you want tested.
A short kickoff call, then access. We agree on scope, understand your success criteria, and initiate AI agent access.
AI agents run. Nothing to install. Proven findings, each with exploit proof and a fix, in about a day.
FireCompass vs XBOW
FireCompass vs XBOW across key areas.
Both run autonomous AI against your web apps and prove findings with working exploits. The difference is where testing starts, how far an attack is followed, and how much of your surface gets tested.

Business logic and real-impact testing
Tests how your app is supposed to work.Business logic, IDOR, BOLA and broken access control, alongside OWASP Top 10: 2025, on authenticated and unauthenticated paths.
Business logic testingStrong on known web vulnerability classes. Application-specific business logic is a narrower focus.
Where testing starts
From your org name.Agents discover your real attack surface first, then test it.
Attack surface discoveryRuns autonomously against the targets you point it at.
Shadow apps and new endpoints
Found automatically, every run.Shadow apps, forgotten subdomains and API endpoints pulled from JavaScript and traffic.
Shadow app discoveryCovers the scope you define; new assets are added to scope by your team.
Attack-path chaining
Across apps, APIs and identity, in one run.Credential reuse, account takeover, app-to-identity lateral movement including Active Directory, and privilege escalation to admin and root.
Chaining beyond the appChains findings within the target application.
Leaked credentials
Validated to real account takeover.Credentials leaked on the deep and dark web are tested, not just flagged.
Leaked credential testingNot a stated focus.
Coverage breadth
Web, API and infrastructure in one run.Plus identity and the external attack surface.
Infrastructure testingWeb apps, APIs and external attack surface.
Control and audit
Every agent action logged.Scope controls you set, safe exploitation that does not break production, and an audit trail for SOC 2 and PCI DSS 4.0.
Autonomous runs against the agreed scope.
Public results
#1 AI on HackerOne*104 of 104 on the XBEN benchmark, under 2% false positives.
Ranks among the leading AI agents on HackerOne.
Autonomous, exploit-proven findings
A working exploit on every finding.Evidence, steps to reproduce and ready-to-run Python.
Genuinely strong here: autonomous, and proves findings with working exploits.

“The platform helps identify potential attack paths and highlight those that are exploitable.”
“FireCompass AI Agents have been valuable in supporting our continuous security assessment program. The platform helps identify potential attack paths and highlight those that are exploitable. It significantly reduces the time required for attack-surface discovery, initial testing, and evidence collection compared with a manual penetration-testing approach. This gives our Application Security team more time to focus on fixing and retesting. The FireCompass team has also been collaborative and responsive throughout the process.”
Autonomous only works if it is safe to run in production.
An attacker inside your environment, even your own, needs rules. We built the controls before we built the demo, because the reliability concerns raised about unsupervised adversarial testing are correct.
Scope enforcementAgents act only on authorized assets; out-of-scope hosts are discovered, never touched.
Production-safe exploitationImpact is demonstrated, not caused. Rate limits and safe payloads by default.
Forensic audit trailEvery request and decision logged and replayable for your auditor.
Human approval gatesHigh-impact actions wait for a human, if you want them to.
