Snyk for AI Agent Security: Features, Pricing, and Alternatives
Blog post from WorkOS
Snyk, known for its application security platform, is venturing into the domain of agentic security with Evo by Snyk, an experimental preview aimed at securing AI-native applications. Founded in 2015, Snyk has established a reputation as a developer-first platform, trusted by organizations like Twilio and Salesforce, for finding and fixing vulnerabilities across various software components. In 2025, Snyk expanded its capabilities by acquiring Invariant Labs, which enhanced its AI safety and security research, leading to the launch of the Snyk AI Trust Platform. Evo offers an agentic security orchestration system that uses autonomous security agents to test and protect AI applications, providing features like vulnerability scanning, risk registry, and runtime observability. While Snyk focuses on application security, WorkOS provides enterprise authentication infrastructure, which is critical for AI applications requiring secure access and identity management. Evo is still in experimental preview, with broader availability not expected until 2026, and interested teams can access it through early access programs. Despite its potential, Evo's experimental status means that enterprises may still rely on proven solutions like WorkOS for immediate authentication needs while considering Snyk's offerings for future security enhancements.
