Endor Labs

Security and AI agent governance for code and supply chain

Overview

What Endor Labs does

Endor Labs helps development teams maintain security velocity without sacrificing speed. The platform secures AI coding agents alongside traditional developers through AI-powered static analysis (SAST), secrets detection, open source dependency management with reachability analysis, and software supply chain security. It emphasizes reducing false positives and noise through reachability-based analysis, flagging only vulnerabilities that code can actually reach. The platform integrates natively with AI coding agents, including support for tools like Cursor, VS Code, and Claude through an MCP server. Teams can select individual product modules (Code, Open Source, AI Coding Agent Governance, Package Firewall, Patches, SBOM Hub) and bundle them for their needs. Pricing is seat-based per contributing developer, with volume discounts available as team size grows.

What people use it for

  • Securing AI coding agent outputs before deployment
  • Reducing SAST false positives with reachability analysis
  • Managing open source supply chain risk
  • Enforcing security policies in CI/CD pipelines

The honest half

Where it falls short

Concrete and checkable, so you can decide whether any of them matter to you. This is the half of a review a vendor will not write about Endor Labs.

  • Pricing requires contacting sales, no transparent rates
  • Developer tier lacks UI and historical scan data
  • Free tier limited to local scanning only
  • Seat-based model may become expensive for large teams
