Score or evidence
VibeEval

The public pages describe evidence per finding after engineer verification, not a single score.

ShipReady

No score, no grade, no badge. Every finding shows the request that produced it and the date it was read.

What they show and what they keep
VibeEval

An account, a target and billing precede the findings. Engineer-verified findings arrive after that step.

ShipReady

The full free result is shown to anyone with the check id. Nothing is gated behind a paywall or an account.

What they do to your app
VibeEval

Black-box dynamic probing against the live URL. The pages do not describe signing in as your users or executing your database functions.

Source: https://vibe-eval.com/methodology/ (read 2026-09-14)

ShipReady

Deterministic outside requests only. Never signs in, never executes a function on your database, never reads another account's data.

What neither can see from outside

Neither an outside scanner nor a public research report can prove these from a URL. They need code, account, runtime or operational access.

  • Rollback and recovery. Whether you can put the previous version back, and how long that takes.
  • Error monitoring. Whether a failure in production reaches a human rather than sitting in a log nobody opens.
  • Sign in and account flows. Whether sign in, password or code reset, and session expiry behave under real use.
  • Rate limiting and abuse controls. Whether a script can hammer your forms, sign up loop, or paid endpoints without being slowed down.
  • Key rotation. Whether you can replace a leaked key quickly and know everywhere it is used.
  • Certificate expiry date. Whether the certificate is close to expiring. A normal request proves the certificate is valid right now, and the runtime this check uses cannot read the expiry date from that request.
  • One account reading another account's data. Whether a signed in account can reach another account's records by changing an id. ShipReady does not create accounts, sign in, or call your functions, so this cannot be answered from outside.
  • Payment handling. Whether payment events are verified, replay safe, and matched to the right customer record.
  • Customer data handling. Whether stored personal details are limited, deletable on request, and out of your logs.
  • AI feature controls. Whether prompts, spend, and model output are bounded so one visitor cannot run up the bill.
  • Database row rules. Whether the row rules behind the app actually stop one signed in account reading another's rows.
Fixes
VibeEval

Findings arrive with engineer commentary. Public pages do not list per-builder fix prompts.

ShipReady

Every finding carries five fix prompts for Lovable, Bolt, Base44, v0 and generic coding assistants, hand written per finding.

ShipReady

You can stop at the free check, or buy the Release Gate at $49 for the package, the Launch Review at $199 for a person, or the Hardening Sprint at $1,750 for the fix work.

Competitor strengths

Live black-box probing combined with a security engineer's review of every finding before it reaches the customer.
