Detailed overview
Semgrep is an application security platform built around semantic static analysis and security workflows for developers. Its product coverage includes code scanning, vulnerability detection, dependency and supply-chain analysis, secrets scanning, and AI-assisted reasoning for triage and remediation. Semgrep can help teams understand findings, prioritize what needs attention, and guide developers toward fixes within normal engineering workflows. The official product evidence describes product pages, documentation, pricing, a free trial, a community edition, and current work around agentic workflows and Guardian. Teams should verify which scanners, repositories, languages, policy controls, and remediation features are included in a selected plan. Semgrep is intended for organizations that want application security analysis and developer-facing remediation rather than a general-purpose coding assistant. Findings still require validation by security and engineering teams, especially where automated recommendations affect production code or dependencies.
Pricing details
A community edition, free trial, and paid offerings are available; scanner coverage and security controls vary by plan.
