CodePatrol vs Snyk
Snyk is the established enterprise SAST — broad coverage across SAST, SCA, and IaC, sold on per-seat annual contracts through a security buying center, and well-suited to mid-to-large organizations that need every scan type from one dashboard. CodePatrol is a different shape: commit-time AI detection with a free OSS-friendly tier, OAuth-onboarding in under two minutes, and per-repository pricing instead of per-seat. This page walks through where those two products overlap and where they diverge.
