Code now ships at machine speed. Govern it at the same pace.

Cursor, Copilot and Claude write production code at 10× - faster than any review or pipeline can keep up. Arko keeps it correct as it's written everywhere - across security, code health, cost and developer experience, and across your IDE, Agent, Repos and CI/CD - all in one auditable system of record.

Architecture Overview
Your AI writes code. ARKO understands
what it builds before it ships.
From raw codebase to full attack surface. ARKO maps architecture, models threats,
and scores risk in real time, so you ship fast without shipping vulnerabilities.

AI writes the code. ARKO decides if it ships based on the score.

AI copilots generate faster than humans can review. ARKO continuously analyses AI‑written code in real time, mapping risk to real attack paths – before it reaches production.

CODE TRUST & HEALTH

Everything Arko covers in AI-written code

Tools scan code. Arko understands it in context — then answers for security, health, cost and developer experience, all from one graph.
What Arko catches

AI SAST

The insecure code AI tools tend to write — from injection to unsafe data handling — caught as you build, with a clear fix.

Hardcoded secrets

API keys, tokens and credentials caught before they ever reach a commit.

Vulnerable dependencies

Risky open-source packages and supply-chain issues, with an SBOM for every build.

Cloud & IaC misconfig

Infrastructure and cloud config that quietly leaves you exposed — flagged with the fix.

AI-era risks

Prompt injection, personal data leaked to the model and unsafe tool calls — the new risks AI code introduces.

Threat modelling

Ranked attack paths and real business impact — not just a long list of findings.

Validated by Arko's decision engine before it reaches you — real risks, not noise.
One graph, many lenses

Security

Vulnerabilities, secrets and attack paths — caught and fixed at the moment code is written.

Health

One score for whether your code is correct — security, compliance and maintainability, trending over time.

Cost

Forecast the cloud spend of code as it's written — and the decisions bending the curve.

DevEx

Change-failure rate, review latency and rework — tied back to the architecture that causes them.

How It Works

DevSecOps Reasoning, not SAST or Rules Based.

1 - Integrate

ARKO integrates directly into AI-assisted development workflows - observing prompts, generated code, edits, and security decisions as they happen.

2 - Analyse

ARKO analyses AI-generated code in real time - understanding what the code is doing, why it was generated, and what risk it introduces.

3 - Guide developers. Enforce policy when it matters.

ARKO gives developers immediate, inline feedback while they’re coding - not days later in a report.

ARKO watches AI-driven development happen - and quietly improves outcomes.

Invisible DevSecOps power at your side - improving every commit.

Faster, safer releases

ARKO identifies risk as code is written - not after it’s merged. Security issues are resolved earlier, so releases move faster without increasing exposure.

Shorter time to fix real risk

Developers see security feedback immediately, in the same place AI code is generated. No context switching. No security side-quests. Just faster resolution.

Coverage across AI systems by default

ARKO continuously observes applications, APIs, models and agents as they evolve - ensuring security coverage keeps pace with AI-driven change.

Lower MTTR on critical issues

Risk is prioritised based on real exploitability and business impact - so teams act on what actually matters first.

Compliance emerges naturally

Security decisions, controls and mitigations are captured as they happen - creating audit-ready evidence without extra work.

Clarity for security leadership

CISOs see whether AI-driven engineering is becoming safer over time - without relying on noisy tool metrics or manual reporting.

Built by AI Security Experts.


ARKO was built by people who have lived inside modern AI-driven engineering teams - responsible for security outcomes, not tool adoption.

Founded by a CISO, ARKO exists because traditional DevSecOps breaks down when code is written by machines, not humans.

Where other tools react after deployment, ARKO operates at the moment risk is created - while AI systems are being built.
