What our research says

Corgea

A developer-oriented AppSec platform whose pitch is that findings come with fixes rather than just alerts. The free plan and public per-seat prices make it easy to evaluate with a real repository. Procurement-heavy teams should plan for the 5-seat and 20-seat minimums on the paid tiers.

Pros

  • Free tier covers AI SAST, dependency, container, IaC and secrets scanning
  • Public per-developer prices
  • Autofix suggestions across pull requests, IDE and ticketing tools
  • SOC 2 Type II controls stated for handling customer code

Cons

  • Free plan limited to two people and ten repositories
  • Paid tiers carry seat minimums
  • Accuracy figures such as fewer false positives are vendor claims

Pixee

Pixee attacks the part of AppSec that stayed manual - triage and fixing - and charges on findings volume rather than seats, so onboarding more developers does not raise the bill. Being built by the people who ran Contrast Security shows in the workflow design. The friction is commercial: no published price, no free tier, no self-serve way to try it on your own repository.

Pros

  • Charges on findings volume, so adding developers does not raise the bill
  • Delivers fixes as reviewable pull requests, not as advisory tickets
  • Filters exploitable findings out of scanner output instead of forwarding the whole backlog
  • Design-time review catches issues before the code exists, not only after

Cons

  • No published price at all - every engagement starts with a sales call
  • No free tier or self-serve trial to test against your own repository
  • Depends on you already owning SAST and SCA scanners
  • The company publishes no founding year or headcount

Which one fits

Choose Corgea if you need

  • Engineering teams that want AI-written fixes attached to security findings
  • Startups needing SAST, secrets and dependency scanning in one tool
  • Security teams automating pull-request scanning across many repositories

Choose Pixee if you need

  • Security teams sitting on a large scanner backlog they cannot triage by hand
  • Enterprises shipping AI-generated code faster than AppSec can review it
  • Organisations that already own SAST and SCA tooling and need the resolution half
