Weekly AI code audits for production repos with ready-to-paste fixes.
Tagline
Weekly code audits that catch real risk
Subscription security reviews for SaaS codebases
Not a scanner. A weekly audit team for code.
Audit-ready security without hiring security staff
A security review subscription for codebases, not a one-time pentest.
The product is explicitly weekly/monthly, subscription-priced, and built around recurring audit cadence. That differentiates it from traditional pentest shops that deliver a single report and disappear.
An alternative to noisy SAST tools that find patterns instead of business-risk flaws.
The page repeatedly says it is not a pattern scanner and emphasizes multi-pass code reasoning, auth paths, SSRF, JWT bypasses, and business logic issues. That is a clear counter-position against generic scanners like Snyk Code or Semgrep.
A painkiller for teams that need audit-ready security evidence without hiring a security engineer.
The offering bundles reporting, fix suggestions, OWASP/CWE mapping, read-only access, and Pro+ pentesting into a managed service. That is valuable for teams that need credible security output but lack internal security bandwidth.
Primary user
CTO or engineering lead at a small-to-mid SaaS company responsible for shipping product code and handling security reviews
ICP #1
Solo founder of a B2B SaaS with one production repo and no security team
Pain
They know security debt is accumulating, but they do not have time or budget for a full-time security hire or a traditional pentest every quarter.
Why this solves
Starter gives them a low-friction monthly audit with concrete fixes, a German/English report, and no onboarding chaos, which is enough to catch high-risk issues before customers or investors do.
ICP #2
Engineering manager at a product team running a single critical codebase with multiple contributors
Pain
Security findings usually arrive too late, are too vague, and create back-and-forth between dev and security with no clear next step.
Why this solves
Studio delivers weekly findings with fix-ready patches, trend history, and Slack/Teams integration so issues can be triaged in the normal engineering workflow instead of becoming a separate security backlog.
ICP #3
CTO at a Series A scale-up preparing for ISO 27001, customer security questionnaires, and investor due diligence
Pain
They need evidence of ongoing security controls, not a one-off PDF from a point-in-time pentest, and they need it in a format auditors will accept.
Why this solves
Pro+ combines continuous weekly audits with quarterly manual pentests and explicit ISO 27001 / TR-03161 positioning, making it easier to show repeatable security hygiene and auditor-friendly documentation.
Strengths
- +Very clear product mechanics: read-only access, weekly reports, DE/EN output, fix suggestions, and setup in 5 minutes are all concrete and believable.
- +Strong trust cues for the target market: Made in Germany, DSGVO-konform, Stripe payments, read-only access, and deletion of clones after each run.
- +The pricing ladder is easy to understand and maps to real customer maturity: solo founder, product team, scale-up/compliance.
Weaknesses
- −The page is overloaded with claims and duplicated benefit blocks; it feels more like a sales brochure than a sharp demand-gen landing page.
- −The product naming is inconsistent and slightly confusing: Sodu /AuditAI, Sodu /AuditAI · KI-Code-Audit ab 99 €, and references to SODU Secure make the brand stack harder to remember.
- −It leans heavily on broad security credibility language but shows only one example report; there is not enough proof of depth, accuracy, or false-positive rate.
- −The audience is too broad across founders, product teams, ISO 27001 buyers, and pentest buyers, which dilutes the primary use case.
- −The CTA and form are friction-heavy for a security product page; asking for company, phone, repo provider, and repository before trust is fully earned may hurt conversion.
Fix these
- Pick one primary wedge: weekly security audits for SaaS repos, and make everything on the page prove that use case first.
- Add 2-3 real before/after examples: one auth flaw, one SSRF, one secrets exposure, each with the exact fix excerpt and outcome.
- Split the landing page by persona with separate sections for founder, engineering lead, and compliance buyer instead of one blended message.
- Replace generic trust copy with concrete proof: sample report pages, a benchmark against Snyk/Semgrep on the same repo, and a short explanation of why multi-pass reasoning beats pattern matching.
- Simplify the form and move the repo details after plan selection; use a softer first step like email-only capture or booked demo for higher-consideration buyers.

Headline
Weekly audits for production code
Catch real risk before customers do
Finds real risk, not just patterns
We review auth paths, data flow, secrets, SSRF, JWT edges, and business logic. The output is ranked by severity and mapped to OWASP and CWE so your team knows what matters first.
Fixes you can paste into code
Every finding includes a concrete remediation proposal, not just a scary label. That keeps the security review inside your engineering workflow instead of turning into a second backlog.
Built for recurring evidence
Weekly or monthly audits create trend history over time. Pro+ adds quarterly manual pentests and audit packaging for ISO 27001 and BSI TR-03161 use cases.
Read-only and low-friction
Connect via read-only GitHub App or GitLab token, then get reports by email, Slack, or Teams. No repo writes, no deployment changes, no onboarding circus.
FAQ
Is this replacing our pentest or SAST tool?
No. It sits between them. SAST gives you patterns, pentests give you point-in-time depth, and /AuditAI gives you recurring repo-level review with concrete fixes in between.
How do you access our code?
Read-only only. You connect a GitHub App or GitLab token, and we do not push changes back into your repo.
What does the report include?
Executive summary, technical findings, OWASP/CWE mapping, severity ratings, trend history, and paste-ready code fixes. Reports are delivered in German and English.
Who is Pro+ for?
Pro+ is for teams that need both weekly audits and quarterly manual pentests, usually for compliance, investor diligence, or customer security reviews.
Will this create more noise for engineers?
That is the main thing we try to avoid. Findings are triaged, severity-ranked, and written to be actionable so your team spends less time translating security jargon.
Your SAST is missing the stuff that actually hurts. Sodu /AuditAI runs weekly code audits on real production repos: auth paths, data flow, secrets, SSRF, JWT bypasses, business logic. Read-only. DE/EN PDF. Paste-ready fixes.
Senior code audit. Monthly invoice. That’s the product. Weekly AI audits for production repos, with fix proposals you can actually paste into code. Built for SaaS teams who need security evidence without hiring a security engineer.
We built this because pentests are too late and scanners are too dumb. Teams don’t need another dashboard. They need someone to read the code, follow the data, and point at the real flaw. That’s what /AuditAI does every week.
One repo. One week. One report. That’s the rhythm. Read-only GitHub/GitLab access, then a bilingual DE/EN audit with OWASP/CWE mapping, severity, trends, and concrete fixes. If you ship prod code, this is the security habit you want.
Security reviews always arrive when your team is already busy. Then they’re vague, full of pattern-match noise, and nobody knows what to fix first. Weekly audits + triage + paste-ready fixes is a much better loop.
If you ship APIs, this matters: one missed auth edge case, one secrets leak, one SSRF path, and your week is gone. Sodu /AuditAI looks at real repo behavior, not just static patterns.
Here’s what the report actually looks like: - executive summary - technical findings - OWASP + CWE mapping - severity ranking - trend history - code fix proposals Made for CTOs who want answers, not screenshots.
Watch the audit workflow: 1) connect read-only repo 2) weekly analysis runs 3) PDF lands in Slack or Teams 4) devs paste fixes 5) trends improve over time That’s the whole point: less back-and-forth, faster remediation.
Made in Germany matters when the buyer is asking about DSGVO, access control, and audit evidence. Read-only access. No code changes. Clone deletion after each run. That’s the kind of boring detail serious teams care about.
Audit-ready without hiring a security engineer is the real promise. Starter gives small SaaS teams a recurring review cadence. Studio adds trend history and team workflow. Pro+ adds quarterly manual pentests for higher-stakes buyers.
Angle: weekly audits vs one-time pentest
Most SaaS teams do security backwards. They buy a pentest once a year, get a PDF, fix 2 items, and forget the rest. Meanwhile the codebase keeps changing. Sodu /AuditAI is the opposite: weekly code audits for production repos, with concrete fixes and trend history. Read-only GitHub/GitLab access. DE/EN report. OWASP/CWE mapping. Paste-ready remediation. If you’re shipping product code, security should be continuous, not ceremonial. That’s the wedge.
Angle: why scanners are not enough
SAST tools are useful. They are also noisy. They’re great at finding patterns. They are weaker at understanding business logic, auth paths, SSRF chains, JWT edge cases, and how one bug becomes a real incident. That gap is why we built Sodu /AuditAI. It’s a weekly audit subscription for production repos, not another dashboard to ignore. The output is designed for engineers and for auditors: clear severity, OWASP/CWE mapping, triage, and fixes you can paste into the codebase. If you’re a CTO or engineering lead, the question isn’t “Do we have a scanner?” It’s “Do we have a process that catches real risk before customers do?”
Angle: compliance and evidence
For a lot of teams, security is not about perfection. It’s about evidence. Evidence that controls exist. Evidence that review is recurring. Evidence that someone is looking at the code with enough depth to catch the ugly stuff. That’s why our Pro+ tier exists. Weekly audits plus quarterly manual pentests by OSCP-certified testers, packaged for teams preparing for ISO 27001, customer questionnaires, and investor diligence. You do not need a full-time security hire to look serious. You need repeatable output, in a format people can trust. That’s the service.

Weekly code audits for SaaS repos
Description
AI-run weekly audits for production GitHub/GitLab repos, with DE/EN reports, OWASP/CWE mapping, and ready-to-paste fixes. Built for SaaS teams that need real security evidence without hiring a security engineer.
Maker's first comment
We built Sodu /AuditAI because most teams are stuck between two bad options: noisy scanners that create backlog, or expensive pentests that happen too rarely. I’ve seen too many teams ship for months with hidden auth, secrets, and business-logic issues because nobody had time to look at the code the way an attacker would. This product is our attempt to make that process boring, recurring, and actually usable by engineers. The biggest thing we learned while building it is that teams don’t want “more findings.” They want fewer, better findings, mapped to real risk, with a fix they can apply now. That’s why the output is bilingual, severity-ranked, and written for both engineers and compliance-minded buyers. If you’re a founder, CTO, or engineering lead, I’d love feedback on the first 30 seconds of the product: does the promise feel specific enough, and does the audit output feel credible enough to try?
Pinned maker comment
Would love feedback on two things: 1) whether the positioning is sharp enough versus SAST tools, and 2) whether the sample report/output makes you trust the findings.
Meta
Still waiting for your next pentest?
Hypothesis: SaaS teams with one critical repo will pay for recurring audits more readily than one-off pentests because the pain is continuous. Sodu /AuditAI runs weekly code audits on production repos and sends fix-ready reports in DE/EN. Read-only access. Slack/Teams. Trend history.
Google Search
weekly code audit SaaS repo
Hypothesis: people searching for pentest alternatives, SAST limitations, or ISO 27001 evidence are closer to buying a recurring audit service than a one-time security review. Weekly AI audits for GitHub/GitLab repos. OWASP/CWE mapping. Paste-ready fixes. German/English reports.
Reddit Promoted
I built this because scanners miss business logic
Hypothesis: indie SaaS founders and small CTO teams in security-conscious subreddits will engage with a tool that reduces security backlog instead of adding to it. Sodu /AuditAI does weekly read-only audits on prod repos and outputs actionable fixes, not generic alerts.

Cold outreach template
Hey {firstName} — saw {context} and thought of Sodu /AuditAI. We run weekly read-only audits on production repos and send fix-ready reports, so teams catch auth/secrets/business-logic issues before they become incidents. If you want, I can send a sample report for your stack. No pitch deck, just the output.
Product Hunt timing
Launch Tuesday 12:01am PT. Tuesday is still strong enough for visibility, but early enough to catch the full day’s traffic and comments; security products need time for technical Q&A, and PH rewards fast, detailed replies.

Competitor alternatives
Current tone of voice
Confident, technical, and salesy in a very German B2B way. It uses punchy claims like "Senior-Code-Audit. Im wöchentlichen Abo." and "Senior-Output. Junior-Preis." to signal authority and affordability at the same time.
