Who builds MANTIS

Built in the trenches.

MANTIS is built by people who've spent their careers breaking into systems — responsibly — at the highest level. We don't theorize about attacks. We've executed them.

Why we built MANTIS

After 15 years of manual pentesting, the pattern was clear: 80% of the work is repeatable. Recon, hypothesis generation, payload crafting against known tech stacks, WAF bypass rotation — all of it follows a decision tree that an experienced researcher executes instinctively.

We built MANTIS to encode that instinct. Not a scanner that checks signatures. An agent that reasons about attack surfaces the way we do — and gets smarter with every engagement.
