About
Semgrep is an application security platform that enables engineering teams to find and fix security vulnerabilities in first-party code and third-party dependencies before they reach production. Founded in 2017 by Drew Dennison, Isaac Evans, and Luke O'Malley, Semgrep reignited development of the open source sgrep project in 2020, evolving it into the industry-leading SAST engine used today. The platform combines AI-assisted static application security testing (SAST), software composition analysis (SCA) for dependency vulnerabilities, secrets detection with semantic analysis, and an AI assistant for triage and remediation guidance. Semgrep supports 40+ coding languages and powers 75 million+ source-code security scans per year for customers including Figma, Dropbox, Slack, and Snowflake. Backed by Menlo Ventures, Sequoia, and Redpoint, Semgrep raised a $100 million Series D to advance AI-powered code security.
