Bugcrowd Launches Savant Pathseeker for Continuous Agentic Pentesting

On July 28, 2026, Bugcrowd introduced Savant Pathseeker, a continuous agentic penetration testing solution for external web applications and APIs. This product allows security teams to conduct ongoing tests, identifying vulnerabilities and providing evidence of exploitability without waiting for scheduled pentests. Savant Pathseeker integrates with Bugcrowd's existing services, including Penetration Testing as a Service and Bug Bounty programs. It aims to address the limitations of traditional vulnerability scanners by offering real exploitation attempts and not just theoretical findings. The solution is designed to enhance security teams' capabilities against evolving threats, particularly as attackers increasingly leverage AI. Braden Russell, Bugcrowd's Chief Technology Officer, emphasized the need for continuous testing to keep pace with adversarial tactics. The product provides audit-ready reports and allows for manual intervention when necessary, ensuring a comprehensive security approach.

Key Points: • Savant Pathseeker enables continuous pentesting for web applications and APIs. • The solution provides evidence of exploitability, surpassing traditional scanners. • Integration with Bugcrowd's platform allows seamless transitions to deeper human-led investigations.
