Works alongside
Aevral is a security agent for your code. Claude Security and Codex Security are the named competitors. This page is the rest of the field: SAST, SCA, and general review tools you keep.
Aevral is an AI security reviewer for GitHub pull requests. Named competitors: Claude Security and Codex Security. This page is not those two. It is the SAST, SCA, and general review tools you already run.
Aikido also publishes Code Security Audit and Deep Review for authorization, IDOR, and business-logic reading of source. Keep Aikido's platform. Detail: aevral.com/compare/aikido.

Each of these does its stated job. Aevral's job is the security agent: scan the repository, review pull requests, suggested fixes. Open-source models, run in the US today; EU-only processing announced.
Aevral's own PR security review is live (reviews start at install; Setup Complete or the Reviews page can turn them off); paid plans are live in the console.
What Aevral adds
- Whole-repo scan and PR review on the same GitHub App.
- A suggested fix you apply in Claude Code, Cursor, or Codex. Nothing merges without you.
- Open-source models, run in the US today; EU-only processing announced (aevral.com/security).
Coverage today
Today the scan reads authorization, IDOR, and business-logic access control only; pull-request reviews also look for injection, XSS, SSRF, path traversal, deserialization, token and session flaws, and LLM-integration risks on the diff. Not memory corruption. Not secrets, dependencies, or supply chain. Keep the tools that cover those classes until those classes ship on Aevral.
