HackNope is a security scanning service designed for non-technical founders who build apps with AI coding tools like Cursor, Claude Code, Lovable, and Bolt. We scan your app for vulnerabilities and explain issues in plain English with ready-to-use AI fix prompts.

HackNope is built for indie hackers, solo founders, and non-technical creators who use vibe-coding tools to build production apps. If you've built an app with Lovable, Bolt, Base44, Cursor, or Claude Code and want to make sure it's secure, HackNope is for you.

What does HackNope scan for?

HackNope performs external scans checking security headers, TLS configuration, exposed endpoints, common misconfigurations, and known vulnerabilities. Internal scans (available on Fortress tier) also check authenticated endpoints, GitHub repos, and database configurations.

How much does HackNope cost?

HackNope offers three tiers: Scout (free, 3 scans/month), Guardian ($19/month, 100 scans with weekly monitoring), and Fortress ($49/month + usage, 300 scans with daily monitoring and internal scans).

What are AI fix prompts?

AI fix prompts are ready-to-use instructions that you can copy and paste into your AI coding assistant (like Cursor or Claude Code) to automatically fix security vulnerabilities. No security expertise required.

Is my app data safe with HackNope?

Yes. HackNope only performs external scans on publicly accessible endpoints by default. We never store your source code, and all scan data is encrypted. Internal scans require explicit authorization and are performed in isolated environments.
