AI-native ASPM platform securing AI-generated code before deployment

The short version
- Only Avo has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
- Each has a real cost: Avo editor seats are the metered unit and only five are included on the Team plan, so a company where many squads define their own events pays 50 dollars per additional editor and the real cost quickly exceeds the headline 250.; Legit Security pricing requires contacting sales, making cost comparison difficult
- They diverge on capability: Avo covers Tracking plan, Legit Security covers VibeGuard AI code scanning.

Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
Avo
- Editor seats are the metered unit and only five are included on the Team plan, so a company where many squads define their own events pays 50 dollars per additional editor and the real cost quickly exceeds the headline 250.
- Avo governs event definitions but does not fix historic data, so an organisation with years of inconsistent tracking still faces the backfill problem it cannot solve.
- Code generation requires engineering teams to adopt generated modules in their build, and in practice some platform teams resist, leaving parts of the estate ungoverned and the plan only partly enforced.
- Inspector event volume is capped by tier, at 100,000 on free and one million on enterprise, so a high-traffic consumer product samples rather than observes everything and drift can hide in the unobserved portion.
- It is an additional tool in an analytics stack that already costs money, and justifying it requires the organisation to accept that its existing data is unreliable, which is a political argument as much as a budgetary one.
Legit Security
- Pricing requires contacting sales, making cost comparison difficult
- No published pricing tiers or free tier available
- Requires integration with existing SAST and SCA tools for full capability
- Focused primarily on code security within development lifecycle
- Newer entrant with less market presence than established competitors

Answered from the vendors’ own pages
Avo: Is the free tier usable in production?
Yes. It includes two editors, code generation and 100,000 events observed in Inspector, which is enough for a small team.
Legit Security: What is VibeGuard and how does it work?
VibeGuard is Legit Security's core feature that scans AI-generated code directly within IDEs like GitHub Copilot and Cursor, identifying vulnerabilities before code leaves the developer's editor.
SourceAvo: What exactly does code generation give me?
Type-safe tracking functions per platform, so a wrong event name or property type fails at compile time rather than in production data.
Legit Security: What AI code assistants does Legit Security support?
Legit Security integrates with GitHub Copilot, Cursor, and Claude to scan AI-generated code for vulnerabilities.
SourceAvo: Does Avo replace Amplitude or Mixpanel?
No. It governs the events those tools receive; you still need an analytics product.
Legit Security: How does Legit Security's AI remediation feature work?
The platform uses AI to suggest specific code fixes for identified vulnerabilities and can automatically create tickets in Jira with full context for developers to review and apply.
SourceAvo: How much is the Team plan?
250 US dollars a month billed annually for five editors, or 300 billed monthly, with extra editors at 50 dollars.
Legit Security: Does Legit Security support compliance reporting?
Yes, Legit Security automates compliance automation with SBOM generation and can generate compliance reports for security and regulatory requirements.
