// WHAT ENGINEERS ARE SAYING
Real engineers. Real reactions.
Not marketing testimonials. These are actual posts, threads, and takes from the security community around Amplify Console.
"Finally something that closes the loop instead of dumping a list of CVEs on my desk. The triage automation alone saved us 6 hours a week."

Senior Security Engineer
"Tested the early access. The custom detection agents are not a gimmick — they actually understand codebase context. Big difference from generic SAST."
@sec_tools_daily
DevSecOps Engineer
"They built actual pipeline plumbing, not a UI wrapper. When it deploys a fix it's in your PR within minutes. That is the right abstraction level."

"The narrative reporting is what got my leadership's attention. Instead of a dashboard of CVEs they don't understand, we show them a story. Game changer."
Victor A.
Security Engineering Lead
"Amplify Console positions itself as the agentic harness that bridges detection and remediation — something the market has needed for a long time."

Both reviews below are from verified AWS Marketplace customers — real names, real dates, linked source. Amplify Security holds a perfect 5/5 rating with zero negative reviews.
A SAST Game Changer for Highly Agile Teams
We've been using Amplify Security for a while now, and I can confidently say it's a game-changer for automated AppSec vulnerability management. This service brilliantly combines traditional source code alerts from tools like SemGrep with the power of LLMs to deliver precise, actionable insights. One of the standout features is how it analyzes alerts to verify their relevance to our specific codebase across our repos. Instead of sifting through countless false positives, we're presented with tailored recommendations that make resolving issues a breeze. The time-saving de-duplication feature consolidates numerous alerts into a focused list of priorities. Integration was seamless with our existing CI/CD pipeline. The in-line commentary during Merge Requests — real-time interaction with their 'virtual AppSec engineer' — not only highlights potential issues but helps us quickly iterate on solutions from a developer's perspective. Our team's efficiency has improved, as we see our security tech debt remain low for every release cycle. This isn't just a tool; it's an essential partner in our development journey.

Game-changer for our development workflow
Amplify Security has been a game-changer for our development workflow. Setting it up with our GitHub repositories was incredibly easy, and it integrates seamlessly into our pull request (PR) process. One of the standout features is its ability to scan PRs and any subsequent changes, providing findings directly inline as comments. This makes it simple for developers to address issues without leaving their usual workflow.
