Reviews every PR
Finds exploitable issues before they are merged.
PR REVIEW
Catch real vulnerabilities before merge.
Hacktron Review is an AI security reviewer for pull requests. It reads changes with codebase context, finds exploitable vulnerabilities, and gives engineers fixes inside GitHub.
Uses codebase context
Indexes repositories and call graphs instead of only reading the diff.
Closes fixed findings
Detects remediation commits and resolves stale alerts automatically.
HOW IT WORKS
Add security review without moving developers out of GitHub.
Connect repositories
Install the GitHub App and choose the repos Hacktron should review.
Review pull requests
Hacktron posts inline findings with the context needed to reproduce and fix the issue.
Tune the signal
Triage comments and .hacktron/rules.md teach Hacktron what matters in your app.
PR comments
Security feedback where developers already work.
Findings are posted on the vulnerable lines in GitHub, so the review stays attached to the code that introduced the risk.
Feedback loop
Fewer false positives after every review.
A finding that matters in a payments flow may be noise in an internal tool. Hacktron learns from your triage comments and adapts to the threat model of each codebase.
Auto-resolution
Fixed issues do not linger in the backlog.
When the next commit patches a vulnerability, Hacktron recognizes the fix and closes the finding without waiting for manual cleanup.
Project context
Rules for the parts only your team knows.
Use .hacktron/rules.md to describe auth patterns, trusted sources, ignored paths, and conventions unique to your application.
COVERAGE
One reviewer for all of application security
Hacktron Review is built for web, mobile, backend, API, CLI, and native codebases. It focuses on exploitable behavior, not long lists of low value alerts.
Business logic flaws
SQLi, XSS, SSRF, XXE
Prompt injection
Memory safety bugs
Auth and access control
Infrastructure-as-code exposures
Supply-chain risk
Secrets and credentials
WORKFLOW
Send findings to the tools that already own remediation.
Pipe findings into Slack for visibility and Linear for tracking, so security work does not disappear into a dashboard nobody checks.
Customer story
Zellify builds Web2App infrastructure for mobile app companies, with fast-moving payment, onboarding, growth, and experimentation flows.
Result
Multiple critical vulnerabilities found and fixed within 24 hours, and security is now built into the development process.
At Zellify, security is a core priority. Before Hacktron, we relied on a combination of manual code reviews and automated security tools from established providers to audit both pull requests and our existing codebase. While this setup gave us a baseline level of confidence, it still required significant manual effort and, as we later discovered, left critical gaps.
When we transitioned to Hacktron and ran a full audit of our codebase, the results were immediate and eye-opening. Hacktron uncovered multiple critical vulnerabilities that had gone completely undetected by other widely used tools on the market. These were not minor issues. They were serious weaknesses that could have been exploited with severe consequences if discovered by malicious actors.
What stood out was not just the depth of the findings, but how quickly Hacktron delivered value. Within a single audit, we identified and resolved risks that had previously gone unnoticed despite using what are often considered best-in-class solutions.
Today, Hacktron is a core part of our security workflow. We rely on it to continuously safeguard our software and infrastructure while significantly reducing manual overhead.
For teams currently relying on traditional automated security tools, trying Hacktron is an easy decision. In our experience, it surfaces issues that other providers simply miss and does so with a level of speed and precision that is hard to match.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions.
A quick rundown of how Hacktron Review fits into pull request security workflows.
Is this just a SAST scanner?
No. Hacktron Review uses repository context and call graphs to reason about exploitability, not only syntax patterns. With advanced AI reasoning, it can find business logic flaws and other types of vulnerabilities that traditional SAST scanners miss.
Where do findings appear?
Findings appear as inline pull request comments, with enough context for engineers to reproduce and fix the issue. Every finding comes with a proof-of-concept exploit, and an AI prompt that can be used to fix the issue.
How does the reviewer improve over time?
Triage comments and project rules become feedback. When developers and security engineers leave comments on findings, Hacktron learns what is urgent, irrelevant, trusted, or intentionally ignored for each codebase.
