Introduction: What is Vouch?
Vouch is the automated, AI-native security scanning layer designed specifically for the era of “Vibe-Coding.”
The Problem
AI-powered development tools like Lovable, Bolt, v0, and Cursor have revolutionized the way we build software. They allow developers, solo founders, and indie hackers to iterate at breakneck speeds. However, they also introduce a systemic risk: AI-generated code is frequently insecure out of the box.
Common “Vibe-Fails” generated by AI models include:
- Missing Row-Level Security (RLS) in databases like Supabase.
- API keys embedded directly into the frontend code.
- Vulnerabilities to SQL Injections.
- Open, unauthenticated API endpoints.
- Total lack of input validation.
Traditional security tools (like Snyk or SonarQube) are expensive, complex to integrate into CI/CD pipelines, and produce a flood of alerts that solo developers often ignore.
The Solution
Vouch acts as an invisible, fully-automated security infrastructure for your workflow.
By integrating Vouch into your repository, it automatically scans your code using a curated combination of static analysis (Semgrep) and state-of-the-art AI analysis (Gemini). Instead of confusing, enterprise-grade CVE logs, Vouch provides:
- A clear, human-readable 0-100 Vouch Score.
- Concrete explanations in plain English.
- Actionable, copy-paste ready code fixes generated by AI.
Who is it for?
Vouch is built for Solo-Founders, Indie Hackers, Creators, and AI-Vibe-Coders. If you use AI to write components quickly and want the peace of mind to deploy safely without becoming a cybersecurity expert, Vouch is for you.
Our Goal
Our objective is simple: Vouch for your code.
We provide provable security in just 300 seconds. By equipping your project with the Vouch Badge, you transparently signal to your users and stakeholders that your fast-paced AI development does not compromise on safety.
