ZeroPath

ZeroPath is an application security platform built around AI reasoning rather than pattern matching. Instead of dumping hundreds of alerts on a team, it traces how data actually moves through an app, weighs the security model behind it and reports only the findings that hold up. The company launched in 2024 as part of the Y Combinator Summer 2024 batch and reached the RSAC 2026 Innovation Sandbox Top 10.

The core problem it attacks is AppSec noise. Classic static analysis tools flag anything that looks suspicious, so security teams spend their days triaging instead of fixing. It works as an AppSec tool that puts exploitability ahead of raw alert volume. ZeroPath reads repository context on its own, filtering and authentication logic included, then scores each issue by whether it can really be reached and exploited. Business logic flaws and broken authentication, the classes that rule-based scanners routinely miss, sit at the center of that work.

It is a paid, team-oriented product rather than a casual developer utility. Access starts through a demo, and the smallest commercial plan runs into four figures per month, which puts it out of reach for solo builders. Source code leaves your environment unless you choose the self-hosted tier on Enterprise, so teams with strict data residency rules need to plan around that.

Getting Started

1. Book a demo on the ZeroPath site and connect a repository host such as GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket or Azure DevOps.
2. Point the platform at the repositories you want covered and let it index the code.
3. Review the prioritized findings, each with a plain-language explanation of the path that makes it exploitable.
4. Apply a generated patch from the pull request, or hand the issue to a teammate through Jira, Linear or Slack.
5. Turn on continuous scans and CI/CD checks so every new push gets the same review.
