THE HEELER PLATFORM

Security at machine speed.

Heeler is the security platform for the AI SDLC — where code is written, and exploited, faster than humans can review. One Context Engine, one policy model, every stage from code generation to runtime: Prevent risk before it lands, Fix what already exists, and Operate the response through to verified closure.

AGENTIC DEVELOPMENT SECURITY

Neither code nor attacks move at human speed anymore.

AI agents generate dependencies, code, CI/CD workflows, and infrastructure continuously and in parallel — and vulnerabilities are now discovered and weaponized just as fast, with exploit windows measured in minutes. Traditional AppSec was built to scan a repository periodically. That model doesn't survive contact with either rate.

Heeler was built for the AI SDLC era. Six dimensions of context, connected once. Prevent, Fix, and Operate all run on a single shared model. Multi-SCM. Multi-cloud. SOC 2 Type II attested.

THE FOUNDATION

Heeler is built around a Context Engine — not a scanner with context bolted on.

Connect your repos, registries, and cloud. Heeler builds one shared model across code, cloud, business, ownership, threat, and agent context. Its detection engines, guardrails, prioritization, remediation, and workflows all read from that same model.

Agent

Every agent skill, MCP config, and policy in use across the environment — inventoried, scored, governed.

Code

Repos, modules, dependencies (direct + transitive + first-party + bundled), reachability, patterns, commit history.

Cloud

Live services, internet exposure, configuration, deployment state, service-to-service connections — sensor-less inventory.

Business

Service tier classification (Tier 1–4), application criticality, regulatory scope, environmental boundaries.

Ownership

Automated RACI matrix at application, repo, service, and dependency level — teams imported from Port, GitHub, GitLab, and other external sources, or inferred.

Threat

GHSA, OSV, NVD, CVSS v3/v4, EPSS, CISA-KEV, OSSF Scorecard, malicious-package feeds — continuously re-evaluated.

No sensors. No tagging. No build modification.
PREVENT → FIX → OPERATE

Three layers. One model.

Vulnerabilities are now found and weaponized at machine speed — the window between disclosure and exploit has collapsed from weeks to minutes. Human-speed review and ticket queues can't hold that line. Heeler runs three operational phases — Prevent, Fix, Operate — off one Context Engine, enforcing the same policy at every layer, at machine speed.

PREVENT

Prevention at every layer of the AI SDLC.

The same context — your policy, approved versions, service tier, and exposure — applied at the three points where risk is prevented: in the agent, at the keyboard, and on the pull request. Anything that gets past them flows into Autonomous Operations after merge.

MCP Server

At code generation, inside the agent.

CLI

At the keyboard, before commit.

PR Guardrails

At the pull request — native status checks before merge.

Autonomous Operations

After merge — Operate takes over, always on.

Context Engine

One policy enforced at every point code moves.

FIX

Deterministic fixes, not tickets.

A suggested fix and a ticket don't scale when exploit windows are measured in minutes and agents open PRs all day. Heeler does the work: it prioritizes what matters, deterministically fixes both dependencies (SCA) and code (SAST), validates each in your CI, and opens a merge-ready PR. And it runs across the whole backlog — burning down inherited debt, not just the newest finding.

Prioritize

Everything gets fixed — not everything is urgent. Across dependency (SCA) and code (SAST) findings, Heeler Risk ranks by real exposure, not raw CVSS: is it internet-facing, loaded at runtime, reachable, and unmitigated? Business, environment, and threat weigh into Urgent / Plan / Defer, so the most dangerous fixes go first.

SCA Auto-fix →

Calculate

The analysis a developer would lose hours to. For a dependency: the lowest version that clears the CVEs without adding new ones. For code: the precise fix that closes the flaw at its source. Computed from your graph, not guessed by a model.

Validate

The agent applies the fix and validates it — compilation, build, and your tests, all green in CI — repairing on red, or abstaining to a human.

Merge-ready

A merge-ready PR — impact, changes, validation, and CVEs fixed in the body. Human review by default; no auto-merge.

OPERATE

Operate continuously. Close the loop.

Heeler-built engines for dependencies, code, secrets, agent skills, and CI/CD continuously re-evaluate risk across commits and running deployments. Autonomous Operations then routes, tickets, remediates, escalates, and tracks that work to closure — so findings are owned and resolved, not simply logged.

SCA

Reachability + vulnerable-function analysis, first-party correlation, compromised-package and license-policy detection.

SAST

In-memory, cross-function taint from source to sink — with API endpoint & auth analysis.

IaC

Terraform, OpenTofu, CloudFormation, Pulumi and Kubernetes definitions — each misconfiguration tied to the resource it provisions and scored by that resource's real exposure.

Secrets

Real-time detection with active validation.

Agent Skills Security

Inventory and scan agent instruction files.

CI/CD Security

Every action resolved and risk-scored, every workflow checked, privileged activity read from the audit log — mapped to the OWASP CI/CD Top 10.

Autonomous Operations

A finding lands and the response fires itself — ticket opened in your tracker, owning team paged in Slack, SLO clock started, auto-fixable work handed to the Heeler agent as a validated PR. Twelve actions, six kinds, triggered by the finding. Nobody has to notice it first.

Context Engine

Ownership and routing come from the same model that found it.

ONE FINDING, END TO END · SCA

Every handoff is a week. Heeler has no handoffs.

One vulnerable dependency, from advisory to a fix confirmed running in production. The same six steps either way — run by four teams and a spreadsheet, or by one continuous system at machine speed.

With Heeler — one continuous system

An advisory lands on a library you already ship. Someone has to notice it, then work out where it lives.

Open a ticket. Work out who owns the service. Set an SLO. Then chase it.

A developer reads release notes and changelogs to work out which version clears the CVEs — and what it breaks.

Heeler computes it — not a model. The lowest version that clears every CVE, with constraint conflicts and breaking changes identified before a line is edited.

HeelerDeterministic

Fix + Validate

Cut a branch. Edit the manifest. Adapt the call sites. Build. Push. Wait on CI. Read the failure. Go again. Then open the PR.

DeveloperHours–days
05

Fix + Validate

The Heeler agent does the developer's work — cuts the branch, applies the change, adapts the call sites, builds and tests in a sandbox, runs your CI, repairs what fails, and opens the merge-ready PR. It remembers your build, so the next fix starts smarter.

Verify

Merged isn't deployed. Nobody can prove the risk is actually gone.

Weeks

Four teams, five handoffs, and triage on every finding — whether or not it was ever exploitable.

Hours

No handoffs. Everything gets fixed — priority decides the order, not whether.

WHERE IT FITS

Consolidates work spread across three tool categories

Not another tool for your stack — the platform that retires three categories of them.

Traditional scanning tools
Heeler adds cloud context for true exploitability and the ownership context to automate it — so AppSec fixes what's actually dangerous first, at machine speed.
Remediation point solutions
Deterministic fixing built into one platform — no stitching together a separate tool for each part of the AI SDLC.
ASPM & all-in-one platforms
All their context and automation — but you need fixes at machine speed, not posture management.
