Almanax

Almanax develops AI-powered code security analysis tools designed to identify and prevent software exploits. The company addresses the challenge of securing the billions of lines of code generated daily by large language models and AI coding assistants, which traditional security tools struggle to analyze effectively. The platform uses advanced AI to scan, analyze, and secure code across multiple programming languages and platforms. Almanax positions its technology as an alternative to traditional Abstract Syntax Tree (AST)-based static analyzers, which the company notes have high false positive rates and miss a significant portion of bugs. The solution aims to detect vulnerabilities before they can be exploited in production environments. The company targets security teams and organizations that need to secure applications, particularly those dealing with AI-generated code. Almanax offers its service through a cloud-based application with a free trial model. The founding team includes members with backgrounds from companies including Coinbase, AnChain.AI, Circle, and educational institutions like MIT and UC Berkeley, bringing experience in both AI development and security engineering to the product.
