Our take
Semgrep is an open-source static analysis tool helping customers copyedit their software for security issues by checking it against relevant coding language rules. The company, formerly known as r2c, delivers this tool as a SaaS service, that aims to help companies take advantage of the security benefits it offers.
Focusing on software security could stand to be a lucrative approach, with security risks posing an ever-increasing threat as businesses move online. Within this avenue, however, Semgrep is looking to keep its focus broad. Instead of developing a language-specific search tool, it intends to keep its service customizable across different languages to fully take advantage of the flexibility of its tool.
With substantial funding at its back, the company released DeepSemgrep in 2022, fixing bugs and tightening its data analysis hit rate. It has also introduced "Semgrep Assistant", that enhances Semgrep's analysis capabilities with AI. If the company continues to expand and advance its software as it has done so far, it should continue to thrive, and is definitely one to watch in the coming years.
