Beagle Security

Overview

Beagle Security is an automated penetration-testing platform for web applications, APIs and GraphQL. It is best suited to development and security teams that want configurable, recurring application tests and can plan around monthly run limits.

Its appeal is the combination of authenticated testing, workflow integrations and exportable findings; its central trade-off is that test runs are quota-limited even though targets are not.

Key features

Beagle Security automates vulnerability identification, validation and prioritization across more than 3,000 test cases, including OWASP Top 10 and CWE Top 25 coverage. That gives teams a broad basis for regular checks, but each full penetration test consumes plan capacity, so teams with frequent release cycles should compare the monthly allowance with their testing cadence.

Teams can record complex login flows and points of interest, allowing tests to cover authenticated areas and application functionality rather than only public-facing pages. Reports can include contextual recommendations and export to PDF, JSON, XML or CSV, a practical mix for human review and downstream handling.

CI/CD integrations include Jenkins, GitHub Actions, GitLab, Bitbucket and Azure Pipelines; results can also connect with Jira, Slack, Microsoft Teams and Trello. The Web API supports project and application management, test control and result retrieval, giving teams options to incorporate testing into existing processes.

Compliance-mapped penetration reports cover HIPAA and PCI DSS. Beagle Security says it is ISO 27001 compliant and uses encryption, role-based access and real-time security monitoring; its trust page states a 99.9% uptime guarantee.

Pricing

The Free plan costs nothing and includes one lite test per month, monthly surface scan reports, and SSL and domain expiry monitoring. It is useful for a limited introduction or basic ongoing monitoring, but one lite test a month is a narrow allowance for teams needing recurring full penetration tests.

Essential costs $99 a month, billed $1188 annually. It allows two tests per month, one concurrent test and five team members. This is the entry paid tier for a small team with a modest testing cadence; annual billing is a meaningful commitment, and the single concurrent test limits parallel work.

Advanced costs $299 a month, billed $3588 annually. Its 15 tests per month, four concurrent tests and 15 team members make it better suited to teams running tests more often or in parallel. Enterprise has custom pricing, custom monthly test and concurrency allowances, and custom team-member limits. It adds priority support, a dedicated customer success manager and concierge onboarding for organizations that need tailored capacity and service.

Tests are counted per penetration-test run, and there is no limit on the number of targets. A 14-day trial is also offered. The key pricing question is therefore how many runs and concurrent tests the team needs, not how many targets it manages.

Platforms

Beagle Security supports web and API testing, including authenticated and browser-based scanning, with a hybrid deployment model. API testing and CI/CD integration suit teams that want to bring checks into development workflows rather than treat them as a separate periodic exercise.

Who it's for

Beagle Security is a strong fit for teams testing web applications, APIs or GraphQL that need authenticated scenarios, integrations and reports mapped to HIPAA or PCI DSS. Smaller teams can start with the Free plan, while teams requiring more frequent or parallel runs have a clear step up to Advanced or custom Enterprise capacity.

It is less suited to organizations that need a high volume of monthly test runs but cannot commit to annual billing on the paid tiers, or whose workflow depends on more concurrency than Essential provides.

Pros and cons

• Pros: More than 3,000 test cases, with OWASP Top 10 and CWE Top 25 coverage, provide a broad automated testing baseline.
• Pros: Recorded login flows and points of interest support testing of authenticated application behavior.
• Pros: CI/CD, results and API integrations offer several ways to connect testing and findings to existing workflows.
• Pros: PDF, JSON, XML and CSV exports, plus HIPAA- and PCI DSS-mapped reports, support different review and compliance needs.
• Cons: Essential includes only two tests per month and one concurrent test, constraining teams with frequent releases or parallel projects.
• Cons: Paid Essential and Advanced pricing is billed annually, so the monthly price does not mean month-to-month billing.
• Cons: The Free plan provides one lite test per month rather than a comparable full testing allowance.

Alternatives

For a free, open-source option that anyone can contribute to, consider OWASP ZAP. Burp Suite DAST is worth considering if you want a tailored solution priced around your portfolio. Choose Bright Security DAST if you prefer to request a demo for a product without public pricing.

Safeguard DAST is another freemium web option. Checkmarx DAST may suit teams seeking a custom-quoted DAST add-on with SaaS or self-hosted deployment. Astra DAST Scanner is a paid web-scanning alternative.

Invicti offers a $500, paid once Agentic Pentest for a single application and its API suite, delivered within 24 hours with audit-ready PDF reports. Veracode DAST is another paid option with a free trial and a live-demo request.

Verdict

Beagle Security is a sensible choice for teams that want recurring, configurable testing across web applications, APIs or GraphQL, especially when authenticated workflows and compliance-mapped reporting matter. Its integrations and broad test coverage are compelling; the reason to look elsewhere is the run quota and annual commitment, particularly if your team needs more frequent testing than the entry paid tier supports.
