Overview
EdgeBit runs continuous SCA and SBOM generation across build pipelines and production servers, mapping vulnerabilities to the code that is actually running so inactive dependencies are deprioritised. Its Dependency Autofix raises and merges dependency updates via a GitHub or GitLab bot. The company has been acquired by FOSSA.
- Best for
- Engineering and security teams wanting vulnerabilities ranked by runtime use and patched automatically.
- Pricing
- A free Developer plan is published; the Team plan is priced per developer per month and Enterprise is tailored, but no figures are shown.
Strengths and trade-offs
Strengths
- Ranks vulnerabilities by whether the code actually runs
- Raises and merges dependency updates, not just alerts
- Free tier covers 3 workloads, 3 repos and one server
- SSO via Google, Okta and OIDC on every plan
Trade-offs
- No prices published for the Team or Enterprise plans
- Runtime analysis is priced per server on top of per-developer fees
- Acquired by FOSSA, so the standalone product's future is unclear
- No self-serve signup shown; the main call to action is a demo

How this score is made up
Each dimension is scored out of 100 and combined into the headline score using fixed weights.
MCP support
Whether an agent can drive the product through the Model Context Protocol, and how much setup that takes.
API quality
Public API surface: machine-readable spec, official SDKs, documented auth, errors, rate limits and versioning.
Documentation
Publicly reachable docs — coverage, freshness, code samples and machine readability.
Agent friendliness
How readable the site is to an automated client: llms.txt, structured data, server-rendered content, crawler access.
Pricing transparency
Whether real prices are published, self-serve signup exists, and usage costs are knowable without a sales call.
Changelog
A public, dated record of what shipped and when — the clearest signal that a product is still alive.
Marketing site structure
Whether the site answers a buyer's questions: clear positioning, the pages that matter, and accessibility.
Page speed
How fast the site loads for real visitors: Chrome UX Report 75th-percentile LCP, INP and CLS, with a Lighthouse mobile run standing in where a site has too little traffic for field data.
Operational trust
Status page and incident history, security disclosure, compliance and data-processing documentation.
Measured, but not part of the score
Useful to know, but not a mark for or against the product — so these do not affect the ranking.
Openness
Source availability, self-hosting, data export and open standards. Scored and shown, but not part of the composite — paid SaaS is not worse for being paid SaaS.
Maintenance
Release cadence and repository activity. Scored and shown, but not part of the composite — it is only measurable for open repositories.
