Endor Labs vs SBOM Observer

Endor Labs is an application security platform spanning code, secrets, dependencies, container images and coding agents. AURI for Developers helps scan for vulnerabilities, detect secrets and block malicious dependencies in AI coding workflows. Endor Code provides AI SAST and secrets detection; Endor Open Source adds reachability-based SCA, malicious-package detection, AI model governance, and SBOM and VEX generation. The platform can inventory coding agents, models, MCP servers and skills, then enforce policies on agent actions. Integrations include GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, CircleCI, Jenkins, Jira, Slack, Vanta, Cursor, Claude, Gemini and GitHub Copilot. Scans can run through cloud apps, inside CI/CD runners or with Endor Outpost for scheduled monitoring and on-premises deployment. The company says cloud scanning briefly clones code into a container that is destroyed after scanning, while CI/CD scanning keeps code in the runner. The free Developer tier supports local scans and read-only vulnerability data, but has no UI, policies or scan history. Paid plans are seat-based and require contacting sales for pricing.
