No list price. Quotes are calculated from annual SAST and SCA scanner-finding volume rather than per developer seat, with unlimited developers included. Self-hosted deployments, custom MSA/SLA terms and backlog-clearing packages are negotiated separately. No free tier is offered.

Overview

About Pixee

Pixee sits behind your existing scanners rather than replacing them. It ingests SAST and SCA findings, works out which are actually exploitable, discards the rest, and raises developer-ready pull requests for what remains; the vendor reports a 98% cut in noise, a 76% merge rate on those pull requests and 5,200-plus backlogs cleared. It also offers design-time security review meant to catch problems before code is written. Pixee Inc. was founded by former Contrast Security leaders, integrates with GitHub, and shows examples in Python, Java and JavaScript. Pricing is quoted per customer against annual scanner-finding volume, with unlimited developers included.

Editorial verdict

Pros & cons of Pixee

medium confidence

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

Best for

  • 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

Not for

  • Teams with no scanner in place - Pixee detects nothing on its own
  • Small shops that need a self-serve trial and a number on a page

Watch out: The headline 98% noise-reduction and 76% merge-rate figures are vendor-reported with no published methodology - treat them as a hypothesis for a pilot rather than a benchmark.
