In practice
A vulnerability scan that just lists problems leaves the fixing to you. Snyk's Agent Fix uses agentic retries to actually resolve issues, not just flag them.
AI is now writing code and creating security exposure your old tools don't cover. Snyk positions as an AI security company, with its Evo system built for AI security posture management.
Securing AI-generated and agent-driven code needs more than a scanner. Snyk adds an AI Defense System aimed at the risks that come with AI in the software stack.

Recent platform changes
Snyk announced the general availability of Evo Continuous Offensive Security (COS). This new offering provides autonomous, AI-powered pentesting and agent red teaming that continuously tests applications as they change to identify exploitable vulnerabilities.
Bears on: Security / enterprise
View sourceSnyk integrated its Studio product directly into Snowflake's Cortex Code environment. The integration acts as a continuous security guardrail, scanning AI-generated code snippets, containers, and third-party dependencies for vulnerabilities in real time as developers build data applications.
Bears on: Integrations
View sourceSnyk announced Evo Agentic Development Security (ADS), an addition to its Evo AI platform that embeds security controls inside the agent's workflow rather than scanning output after the fact. It governs three layers: agent supply-chain security (discovering and assessing MCP servers, skills, and external tools before the agent interacts with them, flagging prompt injection and malicious code patterns); real-time runtime policy enforcement (blocking destructive actions before they execute); and CI/CD validation of agent-generated code. GA is set for June 29, 2026.

Included quota
Free ($0): all 5 core products (SCA/SAST/Container/IaC/Cloud), unlimited contributing developers, unlimited tests on public/OSS repos, ~200 SCA / 100 SAST / 300 IaC / 100 Container private-repo tests per month, IDE/CLI/SCM integrations; NO Jira integration or automated fix PRs. Team ($25/dev/mo): unlimited tests, Jira integration, automated fix PRs, license compliance, 'Reachability' (paid-only), 24x5 support, up to 10 licenses. Ignite (~$1,260/dev/yr): Enterprise-grade platform for up to 50 devs. Enterprise (custom): unlimited tests (custom quote), SSO, RBAC, custom user roles, security-policy management, rich API, reports, on-prem container registries + self-hosted SCM (GitHub Enterprise Server / Bitbucket DC / GitLab Enterprise / Azure DevOps Server), priority support, data residency (US/EU/AUS), FedRAMP (extra).
What is public
Snyk (snyk.io - developer-security / AppSec platform: Snyk Open Source (SCA), Snyk Code (SAST), Snyk Container, Snyk IaC, Snyk Cloud, plus AI/API/web security) publishes real pricing. Free ($0): all core products, UNLIMITED scans on public/open-source repos, but capped private-repo tests (~200 SCA / 100 SAST / 300 IaC / 100 Container per month), unlimited contributing developers, no Jira integration or automated fix PRs. Team ($25/contributing-developer/mo, ~8% off annual): unlimited tests + collaboration (Jira, automated fix PRs, license compliance) - but REQUIRES 5+ devs and is CAPPED at 10 licenses/org. Ignite (~$1,260/dev/year): the 11-50-developer mid-tier. Enterprise (custom): SSO, RBAC, custom policies, SLAs, self-hosted SCM, FedRAMP (extra). A 'contributing developer' = someone who committed to a monitored PRIVATE repo in the last 90 days (public/OSS commits don't count).
Billing mechanics
Per-contributing-developer pricing, scoped by which products you buy (products are purchased separately and must all sit in the same plan). Free is test-limited on private repos (a 'test' = one scan of one manifest/image/IaC template) but unlimited on public/OSS. Team ($25/dev/mo) removes test limits but caps at 10 licenses; 11-50 devs move to Ignite (~$1,260/dev/yr, roughly 4x the Team per-dev rate); 50+ devs negotiate Enterprise. Snyk has signaled a shift toward a usage/credit-consumption model (a unified credit pool deducted as you scan) - not independently confirmed this pass; the published per-developer/test-based model remains in effect per 2026 sources.
Cost watchouts
Test-limit / license cliffs are the trap - active CI/CD exhausts the Free private-repo quota fast (a 20-repo team can burn 200 tests in a day); the Team-to-Ignite jump is ~4x per-developer (~$300/dev/yr to ~$1,260/dev/yr) at the 10-license cap; products are priced SEPARATELY (multi-product bundles multiply cost); FedRAMP and professional-services/onboarding are extra; Enterprise pricing is opaque
Variable cost rationale
Scales with contributing-developer count x number of products purchased; on Free, exposure is test-volume (private-repo scans).
Additional watchouts
Pricing is famously confusing (per-contributor + per-product + test limits + opaque Enterprise) and prone to 'sticker shock' at the Team-to-Ignite-to-Enterprise transitions; budget for multi-product bundles; engage Enterprise sales BEFORE the 10-license cap if growing past ~30 devs
Overage / add-ons
Free is hard-capped on private-repo tests (exceed and scans stop until the monthly reset or you upgrade). Team caps at 10 licenses - the 11th developer forces Ignite or Enterprise. Enterprise developer-count overages typically bill ~$50-$120 per extra developer/month (often above the negotiated base) or require a contract amendment.
Sales call required
Mixed (some tiers require a call)
Commercial notes
Category leader in developer-first security (SCA/SAST/container/IaC/cloud + AI code security); Snyk-commissioned Forrester study claims 288% ROI / 6-month payback (vendor-commissioned - contextualize); customer case studies cite fast fix-time reductions (e.g., Komatsu 62%); competes with Checkmarx, Veracode, GitHub Advanced Security, Semgrep, SonarQube, Mend, Qualys
Key ambiguities
Official self-serve Team is $25/dev/mo, but Vendr/third-party 'list' benchmarks cite $52-$98/dev/mo for multi-product bundles - the gap is product-bundle/term dependent; Enterprise is fully custom (Vendr: ~$697-$948/dev/yr at 50+ devs, with 20-45% multi-year discounts). Note: Snyk has signaled a future 'credit-consumption' pricing model but it is not independently confirmed as live.
Cancellation / refund
Free (no card, permanent); Team self-serve monthly or annual (12-for-11, ~8% off; 5-dev minimum, 10-license cap); Ignite/Enterprise annual by default (multi-year 20-45% discounts); Enterprise via sales
Support SLA / resale
Community/docs (Free); 24x5 support (Team); Enterprise adds priority support, dedicated CS, SLAs, SSO/RBAC, self-hosted SCM, data residency (US/EU/AUS); broad IDE/CLI/SCM/CI integrations; DeepCode AI engine; CVE DB updated within ~24h of new disclosures
Missing data
Enterprise is custom (Vendr benchmarks ~$697-$948/dev/yr at 50+ devs, with 20-45% multi-year discounts); some 'list' benchmarks ($52-$98/dev/mo) reflect multi-product bundles rather than the $25/dev self-serve Team rate. Snyk has signaled a future usage/credit-consumption model, but it is not independently confirmed as live; the published per-developer/test pricing remains current.
