    What counts as an API endpoint?

    In ApyGuard, one endpoint equals one unique combination of HTTP method and path. For example, GET /v1/users/{id} and POST /v1/users count as two separate endpoints. If you're unsure how many endpoints your API has, you can use the free trial to discover them for you.

    What are Guardy Credits?

    Guardy is ApyGuard's AI assistant, separate from the scanning engine. Use it to analyze vulnerability findings, kick off a scan, or pull a daily security snapshot without leaving the dashboard. Credits power these assistant interactions only — your scans always run on full AI regardless of credit balance. Credits refill each billing period.

    ApyGuard vs. Manual API Penetration Testing

    Manual penetration testing provides valuable expert review at a point in time. Automated testing complements that work with repeatable checks during active development.

    ApyGuard can run in release workflows and generate tests from an API definition, including checks for authorization, authentication, and business logic risks.

    Manual testing still has a role in compliance-driven organizations. For teams building and shipping APIs continuously, automated scanning is faster, cheaper, and more thorough between annual assessments.

    FAQ

    Frequently Asked Questions About ApyGuard Pricing

    What's included in the 7-day free trial?

    The free trial gives you access to the ApyGuard scanning engine for one lifetime scan, including API discovery, OWASP API Top 10 coverage, behavior profiling, and a limited vulnerability report. No credit card is required to start. At the end of 7 days, you can upgrade to a paid plan or your account moves to read-only state. Your scan results stay accessible.

    What happens when the trial ends?

    When your trial ends, you can continue on a paid Basic or Professional plan with one click. Your connected APIs and first scan results carry over. If you don't upgrade, your account stays active in read-only mode. We don't delete your data or charge you automatically.

    Can I cancel anytime?

    Yes. Paid plans are month-to-month (or annual, if you choose that billing cycle). Cancel from your account dashboard at any time. You keep access until the end of your current billing period. We don't charge cancellation fees.

    Is there an annual billing discount?

    Yes. Annual billing saves you two months compared to monthly. Toggle to yearly billing above to see the annual price for each plan tier.

    Can I upgrade between plans?

    Yes. Upgrades take effect immediately and you're prorated for the remainder of your billing period.

    What payment methods do you accept?

    ApyGuard accepts all major credit and debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express). Enterprise plans also support invoicing. Payments are processed securely via Paddle.

    Do you offer startup or team discounts?

    If you're an early-stage startup or need licenses for a large security team, contact us. We have options that aren't listed on the public pricing page.
