Bugbop

Hi HN! I created Bugbop over the last year now I'm officially releasing it! It’s a platform for teams that want to run their first bug bounty without expensive contracts. I come from a SaaS technical founder background where I ran our program for years. Now I've decided to make something better suited to that niche. The model is simple: only pay when valid vulnerabilities are found. No ongoing subscriptions. Set budgets to avoid going over. The app's still in the early days but it's working: security bugs are getting paid and bug hunters are getting bounties. It's using AI to review check if…

Bugbop launched on January 13, 2026 with 3 votes, #5,632 of 14,584 launches that month and more than 50% of that year's launches.

What it does

Bugbop helps you secure your app with a simple bug bounty program. Pay only if real bugs are found. Start by adding $575 your "bounty wallet" to list your program and start finding real security bugs. No bugs found? Your money back. Either self-serve or book a call to get set up within an hour. Bugbop uses AI to set severity (because every bug hunter says their bug is "Critical"), filter duplicates, and check if the bugs are valid or not.

A Bug Bounty Platform With Fair Pricing and Less Noise

Bugbop is a bug bounty platform. Bug hunters test your app and report vulnerabilities to you. You only pay when someone finds a real bug. Our AI filters out the junk so you only deal with what matters. Set up a program, get bugs reported, fix them, pay for the valid ones. Use our templates to define what's in scope and what you'll pay. Takes a few minutes. Invite bug hunters directly or list your program publicly on Bugbop. Bug hunters test your app ethically and submit bug reports through Bugbop. AI pre-submission scope check. On submission, AI assigns severity and flags duplicates before your team sees anything. Your team or MSP handles final review. Reward bug hunters for valid findings.…from bugbop.com

    Most users won't report bugs unless you make it stupidly easy2025 · bugdrop.app · ▲335

    Most feedback tools are built like people actually want to report bugs. They don’t. Unless you make it dead-simple, or better yet - a little fun. After shipping a few SaaS products, I noticed a pattern: Bugs? Yes. Bug reports? No. Not because users didn’t care but because reporting bugs is usually a terrible experience. Most tools want users to: * Fill out a long form * Enter their email * Describe a bug they barely understand * Maybe sign in or create an account * Then maybe submit it Let’s be real: no one’s doing that. Especially not someone just trying to use your product. So I built…

    Hello HN community! As a long-time Github user, I often had issues with public repositories that remained open for a long time. This is due to multiple reasons, such as the lack of resources or prioritization. Sponsoring a repository isn't always the best idea because most of the time, contributors are not the ones receiving money. I came up with a solution: put bounties on GitHub issues to incentivize open-source contributors to fix issues even if they're not directly affected by them. This tool is not intended to force any unwanted additions to a GitHub project, but mainly to help with…

    Hey HN! I wanted to share something I built over the last few weeks: isometric.nyc is a massive isometric pixel art map of NYC, built with nano banana and coding agents. I didn't write a single line of code. Of course no-code doesn't mean no-engineering. This project took a lot more manual labor than I'd hoped! I wrote a deep dive on the workflow and some thoughts about the future of AI coding and creativity: http://cannoneyed.com/projects/isometric-nyc
