What it does
ApyGuard is a developer-first platform for API discovery, documentation, and security. Automatically discover APIs from source code with APIScout, generate accurate OpenAPI specifications, and continue with automated API security testing, authorization analysis, and vulnerability management. Understand what your application exposes and identify API security risks before they reach production.
Discover your API surface and test authorization, OWASP API Top 10, and business-logic risks before production. Start free with no credit card.
Follow authenticated attack paths, behavior signals, and findings without losing the context developers need to fix them. The hardest API risks use legitimate credentials and technically correct requests. They hide in object access, role boundaries, and business workflows—not syntax. “A request can pass every schema check and still expose another customer’s data.” Security context stays connected from discovery through remediation, so teams spend less time reconstructing what happened. Find the API surface hidden across code, specs, and traffic. Exercise authorization and business logic with real context. Give engineering teams reproducible evidence and clear guidance. APIScout is a free,…from apyguard.com

ApyHub2023 · apyhub.com · ▲604Hi all, I am Samuel, founder of ApyHub. ApyHub is a Developer API “utility belt”, providing developers with powerful APIs that provide standard data and essential functionalities for every software application. @nikolas and I have spent the last decade working with engineering teams to build and operate SaaS products. What we observed was that our teams spent a lot of energy building small units of functionality that were needed to provide more complex business capabilities. Take for example the HTML to PDF conversion (which in turn was used to generate pdf invoices) functionality, or simple…

tl;dr we released openapi.security, an online tool that performs a dozen of security tests on any given openapi/swagger-based API, with no signup or email required. You can try it here: https://openapi.security My team at Escape (YC W23) is mainly focused on securing GraphQL APIs. For this, we developed a new approach called Feedback driven API Exploration. Basically, we infer the right security tests cases to run using the specification and a carefully crafted in house graph traversal algorithm. (It's a bit long to describe here but we published a more in depth explanation of…

Talanoa▲346Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

Clipto MCP▲655Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
