ABOUT PURPLEHUNT

We Hunt Threats So You Don’t Have To

At PurpleHunt.ai, we believe offense is the best defense. Yet, many organizations struggle to run continuous offensive testing due to talent availability or cost. That’s why we set out on a mission to change the game. We built PurpleHunt.ai to make offensive security accessible, continuous, and affordable for every organization. Our AI agents go beyond traditional threat detection — they simulate real-world attacks, proactively hunt for vulnerabilities, and ensure you’re always one step ahead of hackers. What once demanded specialized teams and expensive consultants is now simplified into a powerful SaaS platform designed to protect you without compromise.

Our Vision

Our vision is to redefine cybersecurity by shifting from passive defense to continuous offense. At PurpleHunt, we believe the only way to stay ahead of attackers is to think, move, and strike like they do.

That’s why we’ve built an AI-driven platform that autonomously discovers exposures, simulates real-world attacks, and delivers actionable insights—empowering every organization, regardless of size, to test and strengthen their security posture every single day
