Bugcrowd launches Savant Pathseeker for continuous agentic pentesting
Crowdsourced cybersecurity company Bugcrowd Inc. today launched Savant Pathseeker, an agentic penetration testing tool that continuously tests external web applications and application programming interfaces for vulnerabilities and provides proof that the flaws it finds can actually be exploited.
The product is the first in a new Agentic Offensive Testing line from the company and pairs automated testing at scale with on-demand access to Bugcrowd’s community of human pentesters.
Bugcrowd is pitching Savant Pathseeker as a fix for a coverage gap that forces security teams to choose between depth and breadth. High-value assets can sit exposed for months between manual pentests, the company argues. Scanners watch everything else but flag theoretical flaws without confirming which are real. The company frames it as a timing problem. Attackers have turned to AI to probe continuously, and a pentest run every few months cannot keep up.
The tool runs purpose-built agents against external-facing applications and APIs continuously. Findings are validated automatically and surfaced in one platform, so teams are not stuck triaging raw scanner output. Each finding comes with reproducible proof of exploitability and audit-ready reporting intended for security teams, auditors and regulators. Built-in guardrails and a manual kill switch keep testing within a customer’s defined scope.
