PcapAI vs SmartSniff

PcapAI analyzes PCAP and PCAPNG network captures and creates security reports. Its machine-learning models evaluate packet context and relate findings to MITRE ATT&CK techniques. Reports are downloadable PDFs with risk scores, packet evidence, findings, and remediation steps. The service detects plaintext credentials, NTLM hashes, Kerberos tickets, and session tokens, then masks discovered credentials in reports. It also surfaces retransmissions, per-flow latency, TCP Zero Window events, and ARP conflicts. The homepage offers free uploads without an account; compressed archives are not accepted, and file-size limits vary by plan. Options include web, API, Windows, macOS, Linux, and self-hosted use. An open-source MCP Server supports local analysis with AI assistants such as Claude Desktop; the maker says packet data stays on the device. The Advanced plan includes API access, and the maker describes sending findings to Splunk, Elastic SIEM, or Microsoft Sentinel. Pricing includes a $9.00 USD one-time Single Report, monthly and annual plans, and one-time packs.
