88% out-of-box detection rate vs Semgrep 46% and SonarQube 19%. Compelling but self-reported. Independent verification would make this the #1 SAST recommendation.
DryRun Security (Code Insights MCP)
activeAI-native SAST with 88% vuln detection out-of-box — nearly 2× Semgrep. Official MCP server. $8.7M raised. Natural language code policies. Low brand awareness but highest reported detection rate.
Where it wins
88% vuln detection out-of-box — nearly 2× Semgrep in DryRun's own benchmark
Official MCP server — first-class agent integration
Natural language code policies — write security rules in plain English
$8.7M raised — funded and actively developed
AI-native from the ground up, not an MCP bolted onto legacy tooling
Where to be skeptical
88% benchmark is self-reported — no independent verification yet
Low brand awareness — smaller community than Semgrep or Snyk
No public star count or open-source repo — harder to evaluate community trust
Editorial verdict
Highest reported SAST detection rate (88%) but self-reported benchmark. AI-native with natural language code policies. Official MCP server. $8.7M raised. The dark horse — if an independent third party confirms the 88% detection rate, moves to #1 above Semgrep.
