Automated API Discovery & Security
Aikido generates example traffic data to test your APIs with Swagger-to-traffic. Paired with Zen’s automated API discovery, it ensures no endpoint — (un)documented or forgotten — is overlooked. No extensive infrastructure or up-to-date documentation is required.
- Get updated Swagger docs / OpenAPI specs
- Understand your attack surface
- Ensure complete API coverage
- Detects Shadow & Zombie APIs

Contextual API Scanning
Go beyond regular code checks. Automatically scan APIs for vulnerabilities and flaws. Simulate real-world attacks, and scan every API endpoint for common security threats.
- Reduce manual work
- Mimic, automate, and scale pentests
- Find more vulnerabilities with context-aware DAST
How Aikido's API Scanner works
Swagger-to-traffic endpoint curation
Aikido’s API Security Scanner compiles a list of API endpoints with parameters for testing through a technique called fuzzing. In order to get high-quality, realistic sample data, we use a Swagger-to-traffic.
Push Intelligent Requests
Leveraging AI, we send targeted push requests to simulate attacks (e.g. SQL injections, validation errors…).
AI-Enhanced Feedback
From sending values to analyzing responses to resubmit requests, our AI-powered model aims to mimic manual pentests as closely as possible.
Built for teams without Enterprise Overhead

Scales with your organization
Fix the most critical vulnerabilities, without compromising performance.
Auto-create & test Swagger docs
With Zen enabled, all APIs are automatically discovered and documented. Newly created API endpoints will automatically be added to Swagger docs AND tested for vulnerabilities.
Auto-generate sample data based on LLM
We’re capable of producing meaningful test data tailored to your API’s schema and expected inputs.

FAQ
How do I best leverage Aikido’s API Scanner?
We recommend you to only test the API Scanner on staging environments, as we’re simulating actual heavy attacks that can happen (and could bring your app down).
What does ‘fuzzing’ mean?
Fuzzing is a process of testing an API by sending a high volume of malformed or unexpected inputs to detect potential vulnerabilities, such as input validation failures, buffer overflows, injection attacks, or other security flaws.
The goal of API fuzzing is to uncover weaknesses or vulnerabilities in the API's implementation that could be exploited by an attacker. By injecting unexpected or improperly formatted data, fuzzing can reveal flaws or unintended behaviors in how the API processes input. This approach helps to identify security risks that attackers might use to compromise the system.
What is Swagger-to-traffic?
By analyzing your Swagger (OpenAPI) documentation with our LLM, we’re capable of producing meaningful data examples tailored to your API’s schema and expected inputs. This generated data is used during fuzz testing (DAST) to find vulnerabilities.
Can the API Scanner handle all API formats?
We currently support REST and GraphQL. APIs often contain complex, unconventional data formats, like circular references that can overwhelm traditional AI models. Aikido solves this with an intelligent graph-check system, breaking circular chains to ensure seamless processing by large language models (LLMs).
Further, if used in combination with Zen, our in-app firewall, Aikido can auto-create Swagger docs, allowing you to automatically document newly created API endpoints AND test them for vulnerabilities.
Do I need to purchase Zen separately to benefit from auto-create Swagger docs?
No. Zen is included in all plans. Please refer to our Pricing page for more information.
Can I rely on the API Scanner to replace my pentesting practices?
Yes, to a great extent. Our system often uncovers more (or other) issues compared to a manual pentester. While we trust the API Scanner’s thoroughness, keep in mind that a human's creative approach may occasionally uncover additional or unique issues.
Help, I don’t have proper API documentation yet. Can I use this?
Yes! Unlike enterprise-grade API Scanners, Aikido’s solution works without requiring extensive infrastructure or up-to-date documentation, making it ideal for midsized companies or companies lacking traditional prerequisites. If you’re lacking a proper Swagger doc / OpenAPI spec, you just need to get our in-app firewall, Zen, up and running to do that for you.
In case you can not (or do not want) to use our in-app firewall, then you’ll need to provide API documentation in order for the API Scanner to work.
