Is Securiti or Semgrep better?

Neither clearly leads. Securiti starts at On request and Semgrep at Free, and user ratings are close enough to be indistinguishable. Choose on capability and platform support.

Which is cheaper, Securiti or Semgrep?

Semgrep has a free tier; the other does not. Paid plans start at On request for Securiti and Free for Semgrep.

Does Securiti or Semgrep run on more platforms?

Securiti runs on Web. Semgrep runs on web, api, linux, mac, windows.

Can I use Semgrep for free?

Yes. Semgrep has a free tier, so you can try it without paying. Securiti starts at On request.

What is Securiti best used for?

Securiti is most often used for an enterprise that must answer, within days of a breach, exactly whose regulated data was in the affected store and in which jurisdictions, a privacy team automating deletion requests across dozens of systems where the hard part is knowing where a person appears at all, a security team that needs to find sensitive data sitting in over-permissive cloud buckets and warehouse tables before an auditor does, a company putting internal data into retrieval-augmented ai applications and needing to prove that regulated fields are not reaching the model. Of those, an enterprise that must answer, within days of a breach, exactly whose regulated data was in the affected store and in which jurisdictions and a privacy team automating deletion requests across dozens of systems where the hard part is knowing where a person appears at all are not what Semgrep is typically brought in for.

What can Securiti do that Semgrep cannot?

Securiti covers Sensitive data discovery, Data security posture management, Data access intelligence, AI and LLM governance. Semgrep covers Static code scanning, Supply chain scanning, Secrets detection, Cross-file analysis.

The short version

Only Semgrep has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
Each has a real cost: Securiti value depends entirely on connector coverage and completed scanning, so the first useful data map commonly takes months and stalls whenever a data owner will not grant access to a system.; Semgrep free tier caps out at 10 contributors and 10 repositories.
They diverge on capability: Securiti covers Sensitive data discovery, Semgrep covers Static code scanning.
Prices and features above were last checked on 31 August 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Securiti

Value depends entirely on connector coverage and completed scanning, so the first useful data map commonly takes months and stalls whenever a data owner will not grant access to a system.
Usage-based pricing tied to data volume means costs rise as the estate grows rather than as the security programme matures, and organisations with large but low-risk data lakes pay for scanning they do not need.
The breadth across DSPM, privacy and AI governance means each individual module is competing with a specialist, and buyers who only need one of the three often find a focused tool does that job better for less.
Classification accuracy on unstructured and free-text data requires tuning, and untuned deployments generate false positives that erode trust in the catalogue precisely when teams are being asked to act on it.
Pricing is unpublished and modular, so scoping is difficult without a sales engagement and the eventual cost depends on module choices that are hard to evaluate before you have seen your own data map.

Semgrep

Free tier caps out at 10 contributors and 10 repositories.
Secrets scanning is priced as a separate module ($15/contributor) from Code and Supply Chain.
Self-managed repositories and custom CI/CD require the Enterprise tier.
AI credits are limited per tier and additional usage requires upgrading.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Securiti: Is Securiti a DSPM tool or a privacy tool?

Both, deliberately. It runs data security posture management and privacy operations off one discovery catalogue, which is its main argument against buying two products.

Semgrep: What does Semgrep cost?

The Free edition covers up to 10 contributors; Teams starts at $30/contributor/month for Code scanning (Supply Chain also $30, Secrets $15); Enterprise is custom-priced.

Source

Securiti: What does it cost?

Not published. Pricing is modular and usage based, quoted by data volume and selected modules, and it is also available through the AWS marketplace.

Semgrep: Is there a free plan, and what are its limits?

Yes, the Free edition supports up to 10 contributors and 10 repositories with Code and Supply Chain scanning plus 60 AI credits total.

Source

Securiti: How long until it is useful?

Expect months, not weeks. The limiting factor is configuring connectors and getting access approvals to the systems you most want scanned.

Semgrep: How is usage metered?

Pricing is per contributor, defined as someone who made at least one commit to a scanned private repository in the past 90 days.

Source

Securiti: Does it govern AI use?

Yes, it includes controls over data flowing into models and retrieval pipelines, which is increasingly the reason enterprises shortlist it.

Semgrep: Is there special pricing for startups?

Yes, Semgrep offers special startup pricing upon request for early-stage companies.
