And the more agentic you are, the worse it becomes.
Anton built his startup with AI tools. Stripe was integrated, users were paying, everything looked fine. His API key was exposed in the frontend code. Someone found it. 175 of his customers were charged $500 each. He found out when the emails started coming in.
A researcher scanned 1,645 apps built with Lovable. 170 had critical security flaws. Names, home addresses, Stripe statuses, and API keys were readable by anyone who knew where to look. The apps were live. The founders didn't know.
He had 2FA on. Secret keys in .env. Instant payouts disabled. Attackers still found a way in. Fake connected accounts, one hour, $41,000 gone to a debit card. Stripe sent a canned email. No funds were recovered.
WHAT BUILDERS ARE SAYING
Stripe is safe. Your backend isn't :/
Paul-Antoine Richard
Founder @ weriise.co ↗“Our developer moves fast, which is what I want. But the payments table was exposed and heading to production. Argus caught it before anyone saw it. Another week and that would have been live.”
Andrew Wilkinson
Founder @ Unify.FM ↗“I had people paying me and genuinely didn't know if their data was open to anyone. My database key was exposed and user records were readable without logging in. If a competitor found that before I did it would have been over.”
Jesse Strober
Founder @ SnapRent ↗“Tenant addresses, payment history, IDs. If any of that got out I'd be dealing with lawyers. I knew it in the back of my head but never actually checked. At least I found out from Argus and not from a breach.”
Nejmo Serraoui
Founder @ Pre-Round Club
“A private pentester found it. We fixed it and looked for a solution that would catch stuff I don't.”

Claude user, entrepreneur
“I use AI to build everything and I'd be lying if I said I understood every line of what got generated. There's this nagging thing: okay but what did I actually ship. Argus is the senior engineer I don't have budget for.”
@BatmanInThePines
CTO @ West Inc. ↗“One junior dev, no security background. A deployment had made our customer orders publicly readable and we had no idea. We didn't notice, no one told us. Argus caught it. That was enough for me.”
Thilo Thies
Founder @ EckRad ↗“When someone books with me they hand over their home address and card. I never really checked if the backend was protecting any of that. Argus found three things in the first scan. Fixed them the same afternoon.”

THE TEAM
Co-Founder
Stanford grad. Operator. Understands the scale of what's coming as millions of vibe-coded apps ship without a security review. Makes sure the business interests come first.
Co-Founder
Production data engineer. Built pipelines and automations for businesses in Europe and in the U.S. Pipelines break every day silently, and kill businesses more than you'd imagine.
Co-Founder
Ex-hacker. Spent years finding the holes in other people's systems. Knows the exact queries attackers run to destroy apps — because he's run them.
Security Engineer
Broke into payment systems for years before building defenses for them. His rules run every time Argus scans — Stripe key exposure, webhook forgery, card testing attacks.
Security Engineer
In charge of finding all vibe coders that need help on the internet. Specializes in RLS misconfigs, open databases, and secrets leaking into client bundles.
Five pirates. One agency, one tool.
